Interesting....I have booked my hotel to attend the spring lan.........hopefully we will be able to do the summer as well.

So food places have usual closing-opening times.. No clan box either..

Erk. Have to admit the prospect of no clanbox is a bit worrying! Fingers crossed they'll sort something out - maybe ringfencing certain areas of the BYOC halls to be allocated for blocks of people? :S

Also the indoor camping gives me the idea of having to pack up all of my stuff after sleeping and putting them somewhere they can't be nicked or demolished.

I'll be volunteering at i56 in December, the first at the nec, so i will be able to report back after that with a bit more info hopefully for those considering attending next year!

Obviously we'll see what we can do about a clanbox or something along those lines, but the NEC is famed for large spaces so I honestly have no idea what will happen at this point - hopefully after the first event things will be clearer

Whilst there are some potential downsides to the new venue, all the extra space and the fact that the NEC is one of the biggest exhibition providers in the country should hopefully fix a number of the issues that there were at Ricoh!
