Hi, I am a FC member since 1996 but I have not been to FC convention yet. This year I´d like to go because it will be 20th convention and MAYBE the best and greatest convention in FC history. Have you already booked it? Please, don´t you know how to get from Manchester to Prestatyn? How did you like last FC conventions? Thanks for your experiences.
There'll be a train from Manchester.
They're enjoyable.

They are great fun. Been going since 91' on and off but popularity has been dwindling of the years which is a shame.
It's all about the evenings. Loads of drink and loads of uninhibited air guitar ;-)
Normally a couple of good bands, Queen disco until 2am, parties back at the chalets well into the morning.
You get the gist
I've always seen them as an excuse for Jacky Gunn to be able to justify her existance within the Queen organisation.
The Fan Club provides nothing other than a t-shirt selling service and an "expensive" weekend holiday booking service for one weekend each year.
If people stopped going - which they clearly have in the last 5 years, perhaps the FC might look at that as a mirror of the services that they provide and pull their socks up.......
Still, Queen fans being Queen fans will do just about anything so long as the Queen name is tacked on there somewhere.....
