Unofficial UK Heroes Convention in March 2008

Got an email from David who filled me in on an upcoming Heroes convention in the UK for fans of the show. This is being called the “Unofficial Heroes” convention, but as far as I know, I think it’s the first of its kind — that is, the first convention to focus exclusively on Heroes. (Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) The con will be called Eclipse, and is a 3-day event that will run Friday 14th through Sunday 16th in March of 2008. They’ve already lined up one guest (with possibly more to come), and it’s no other than the villainous Sylar, aka Zachary Quinto.

More from the convention’s site here:

Eclipse is set to be a fantastic 3-day UK event to celebrate the hit television series: ‘Heroes’, from Friday 14th – Sunday 16th March 2008. This unofficial convention aims to bring together fans of the series from across the country to meet some the show’s stars and enjoy various events over the weekend. There will be activities each day from guest talks and photograph sessions to quizzes and late night parties. For more information on these, check out our events section. This event will take place in The Park Inn Hotel, Northampton for more information on this venue and room rates see our venue page.

Here’s what attending the con will cost you (in pounds):

Standard Adult at £78

Note: Children under 7 get standard entry for free
