Just a few days to go until the big day, and a veritable whirl of activity here in the Davis household as we put the last-minute preparations on Saturday's event. Really looking forward to running things, and the whole thing should be a blast.
Today I thought it'd be a good idea to pass on what I've dubbed the 'Key Information' from our event guide - if you're heading down, this will be everything you need to know on the day to get around the event and make the very most of your time there. If you're yet to be persuaded to get a ticket, then maybe this will give you a bit of assurance you'll be in safe hands! :-)
Anyway, here goes...
Edge-Lit – key information
On arrival, head to the registration
desk to collect your registration badge. Please keep this badge with
you at all times, as you will need to access all the sessions and
films at the event.
Our staff will be on hand throughout
the day at the registration desk should you have any queries about
the event, or about Derby. Please note that our staff are all
volunteers, so please treat them with respect. Our staff will be
wearing red t-shirts.
Staff will be checking badges as you
head into sessions – please be ready to show these to access events
and schedule items.
PLEASE NOTE that our writing workshops
are all included within the price, but numbers are STRICTLY LIMITED.
Please head to the QUAD Box Office (opposite the main entrance
downstairs) to collect your free ticket to the workshops of your
choice. Event staff will ask for your ticket as you head into the
session.
PLEASE NOTE you will also have to
collect tickets to our film screenings in the same way. Again tickets
are STRICTLY LIMITED, and will be distributed on a first come, first
served basis.
The Meeting Room (reading space) and
Digital Suite (workshops) are both on the first floor, while Cinemas
1 and 2 and The Box (book room) are found on the second floor. The
registration desk is also on the second floor.
A range of drinks and food are
available at QUAD from the bar. There are also many places to eat
around Derby – please visit out registration desk for an
information sheet. There is a lunch break from 1pm-2pm, and a dinner
break from 7pm-9pm.
A handout on local travel information
is also available from the reception desk.
PLEASE NOTE that schedule items may be
subject to change in case of unexpected circumstances. No refunds
will be given in case of author absence or enforced schedule changes.
Raffle tickets are available from the
reception desk throughout the day at a cost of £1 per strip. A list
of prizes is displayed around the building, with a full list also
available at the reception desk.
If you're looking to pick up a ticket, you can either get yours on the day, book online at http://www.derbyquad.co.uk/special-event/edge-lit-day-ticket or give QUAD Box Office a call on 01332 290606.
Thanks a lot, and see you there!
Alex
