How old are the kids? Some anime's not very kiddy unfortunately, although I'm sure they'll like the costumes.

Well of course as an obliging AL member I'm obliged to say ours are better :D

from what I’ve read it’s their first time running it so people are a bit wary because it’s a big venue for a first time event

I must say that the quantity of cons is really ramping up this year.
To those just starting on the journey of life I say...
Bang your own drum. Walk your own path. Live wildly. Love fiercely. 
As you near the end, look back with no regrets.

Yeah I'm doing 2 next month, Doncaster on the 14th, Elsecar on the 21st.

And then nothing till the AL one at the Mercure Hotel in Town in September.
