Fantastic response to the sale of tickets with almost seventy-five percent sold within a month.  Make sure you don’t miss this exciting conference to celebrate QE2’s 50th Anniversary.  You can see instructions on how to purchase your tickets on the ticket page, so don’t delay  buy your tickets today.

Celebrate the QE2’s 50th Anniversary (1967 – 2017) by wearing The QE2 Story’s special edition pin badge. The logo design by Marc Antoine will feature at the conference in September. The badge measures 16 x 28mm and will only be available in 2017. Stocks are limited so visit the QE2 Story shop where you can buy this piece of QE2 memorabilia.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to the sponsors who have come forward so far to support our event, which is very much appreciated. Some have provided support,  promoting the conference or providing services such as designing the conference logo.  Others have offered funds that are helping us provide an event that you will enjoy.  These contribute to the cost of the venue, catering, speaker accomodation and everything else that we need to pay to make the event come together. You can see our sponsors listed on our Sponsors page. Please click through to visit their websites to support them as well.

A member of the QE2 Story forum asked a question about Scotland’s weather. “What is the high, low and average temperature and weather conditions for September in Glasgow and Clydebank . It would help in packing the correct clothing and footwear for people coming from far afield.” Difficult to predict the weather, especially in Scotland, where we can have four seasons on the one day.  However, I have added a couple of links to websites with information on Scotland’s climate on the FAQ‘s page.

What a fantastic response we have had to the sale of the tickets since booking opened on Saturday.  Go to the ticket page and purchase your ticket, to ensure you secure your place at this not to be missed conference, to celebrate QE2’s 50 years.

You can purchase your ticket by going to the ticket page and clicking on the button to buy your tickets.  Like the laying of the  QE2’s keel there was a slight technical glitch this morning,  which was quickly resolved.  The link to the ticket website is open and tickets are selling well.

I hope you like the countdown, on the event website pages, to when the booking open tomorrow at 9 am GMT tomorrow 14 January.

Not long now until booking opens at 9 am GMT on Saturday 1 4 January. Set your phone reminder  to make sure you get your tickets by following the link from the Ticket Page and purchasing tickets.
