When you register at the event you will be given a schedule with specific times for all activities. Please follow @StarfuryNews on Twitter for any last minute schedule updates or changes over the weekend.

A full schedule of events will be provided when you arrive at the event.

Autographs

All ticket holders have the opportunity to meet the guests in the Autograph Sessions. The Autograph Sessions will be taking place on the Saturday and Sunday, and will afford attendees the opportunity to get a piece of memorabilia signed by each of the guests in person.

Attendees will be called up by their ticket number, usually starting with Gold Ticket holders, and followed by Regular Ticket holders.

You may get one item of your own (known as a personal item) signed for free by each guest, with the exception of any Bonus Guests or Extra Guests. Gold Ticket holders are entitled to one personal item signed for free by Bonus Guests and Regular Ticket holders can purchase them. Extra Guest autographs must be purchased by all ticket holders.

We fully understand how important it is for all our attendees to get an autograph, however we cannot guarantee that all attendees will get one in the event of exceptional circumstances arising, for example a guest becoming ill. We can only promise that we will do our best to make sure that you get all your autographs.

Photo Sessions

All ticket holders have the opportunity to meet the guests in the Photo Sessions. In fact Starfury were the first convention organiser in the world to offer professional Photo Sessions, sometimes referred to as Photo Ops.

All of our events still feature Photo Sessions. These are the most popular part of the weekend and we only have limited tickets available, so make sure you don’t miss out!

Once Photo Session tickets are on sale you will be able to purchase them at the link below.

Fan Meets

On Saturday & Sunday there will be Fan Meets with most, if not all, of our guests. This is an opportunity for approximately 20 fans to spend 15/20 minutes around a table with a guest or two.

Meet & Greet

On the Friday evening there will be a Meet & Greet reception for all Gold Ticket holders. Usually all guests who attend the Opening Ceremony are scheduled to attend, and it should provide a unique opportunity to interact with them on a more personal level.

The Meet & Greet will start directly after the Opening Ceremony on Friday evening.

Autographs and photographs of the guests are not allowed in the Meet & Greet as we have separate dedicated Autograph and Photo Sessions.

Parties

These events aren’t just about seeing the actors and getting photos and autographs. We try to create a dynamic social environment for fellow fans to get to know each other, so on each night of the event we’ll be holding a party for you to let you hair down, have some fun, and party with fellow fans.

We’ll be hosting a themed party each night. Dressing up isn’t compulsory, just come as you feel comfortable, and the themes are only there for fun.

  • Friday Night Party Theme: TBC
  • Saturday Night Party Theme: TBC
  • Sunday Night Party Theme: TBC

Cosplay

Cosplay is a very important and popular part of any Starfury event. For the uninitiated, cosplay is dressing up as your favourite character. It’s great fun, shows tremendous skill in costuming, and fantastic for everybody else as we get to witness these fabulous creations.

Cosplay has always been a popular part of all of our events, and the quality of the costumes on display at our previous events have been breathtaking.

On the Saturday evening we’ll be having a Costume Competition. A chance for fame and kudos for all cosplayers. The guests will act as judges, awarding prizes to those whose efforts they deem to be the best. Whether a participant or viewer, this is always the highlight of any event and lots of fun.

If you’d like to take part, let them know at the Registration Desk before 4:00pm on Saturday.
