Meet the Guests
You will be able to have an extended sit-down and meet-and-greet with our special guests. This will be more intimate than a traditional autograph session.

A delicious dinner will be provided to you, complete with dessert. The menu options are below; there is a chicken option, a fish option, and a vegetarian option.
