Friday is the VIP night were guests from the show will be around to mingle with details have not been released yet on the full guest list but will be in due time but there will be an entry pass fee again more details as it happens

How much is entry to knightcon on the saturday?
Free to enter

How far away is the Airport from the convention centre?
Depends what airport you are landing from I would suggest using google maps and put in the airport name as your start point and then search for Xscape castleford postal code WF10 4TA as the destination to get a good idea of distance

Whats the best way to get there from airport? depending on distance and routes train to glasshoughton station or if your feeling flush taxi

Cheers Guys

Hi all,

I'm new to this forum, but been a Knight Rider fan since I used to watch it as a kid. My eldest son, who's now 11, has been a fan for years. We even went to the KnightCon in Germany (back in 2004 I believe). I have pics of it if anyones interested-I can post them up.

I am interested in the KnightCon, have a few questions too. Is anything happening on the Sunday or is it just friday pm/Saturday?

Also is everyone eligible to go to the VIP evening on the friday?-and is there any idea of who will be attending VIP wise? We went to germany in the hope of seeing the Hoff himself-but unfortunately he couldnt make it.

Really hope the family and I can come-money is an issue though, as having 4 kids=2 rooms=hell of a lot of money! LOL!

Thanks in advance and look forward to being around on this forum,

Kind regards

Matt
