It was my first Starfury event and I had heard good things from friends who had been to previous Starfury events. Well it lived up to the hype!It’s a smaller/mid sized con, so do not expect something out of the Excel centre.They also are big on ID tied to tickets, photos and Autos to ensure they are used by the correct person. A little different in that guests do not have 8x10’s to choose from, if you buy an auto you select your photo on registration and it acts as your proof of an Auto. Regular ticket holders who have Auto’s included can purchase an 8x10 or have something signed. At first I found this odd, but quickly found it actually worked! You didn’t need to worry about a slip of paper, or scanners not reading a QR code, like I’d had at other events.Tickets come in regular and gold flavours, with autos of all regular guests included in the regular ticket and Gold getting bonus guests included. This meant every ticket holder got along with their programme a tick off sheet of who they needed.The talks were well organised and in a spacious hall.The chosen venue had the spaceThe staff in the autograph/photo areas were fantastic, like a well oiled machine. Even in the longer queue for the star guests they had water available and brought it about. If you needed the toilet they would let you nip out and for those with mobility issues they held a spot in the queue for them!The whole atmosphere was like a big family and had a similar but better vibe to some other cons I had been to (that no longer exist so this fills the void)I’ve already bought a ticket for the next one! It’s so good to have another Stargate con out there!
