It's the email you've been waiting for... We're about to announce
the release date for tickets to Gatecon: The Family reunion.

TICKET SALE RELEASE DATE
We are pleased to announce that VIP tickets for Gatecon: The Family
reunion will be going on sale at 1:00pm GMT on Saturday 5th January
2008. To find out what this time is in your local time zone see our
special countdown page at...

TICKET PRICES
Because Gatecon has its base in the United Kingdom, all of the
prices listed for tickets etc are listed in UK Pounds (GBP). We know
that because of the unsteady U.S. Dollar at the moment the converted
price may vary. Hopefully the U.S. Dollar has seen its worst level
and the conversion prices should come down by the time of the ticket
release.

In the initial instance we will only be releasing VIP ticket sales.
The price of the VIP ticket will be £185 each. This updated price
now includes a photo session pass with RDA (valued at £35), as well
as the item under the VIP Ticket Inclusions section below.

Once the VIP tickets have sold out we will release the "Gate Pass"
tickets. More information about the Gate Passes will be sent out
closer to their release date.

RDA PHOTO SESSION
As you know at each Gatecon, the photo sessions with our guests are
usually paid for at the time of the convention. So we can plan ahead
for Richard Dean Anderson's schedule his photo session for VIP
ticket holders will be an automatic inclusion in the price of the
VIP ticket. We will be hiring a dedicated photographer for this
special photo session, and all proceeds received by Richard Dean
Anderson for the photo sessions are donated to the Sea Shepherd
Conservation Society.

VIP TICKET INCLUSIONS
ALL VIP ticket holders will also receive free of charge a special
Richard Dean Anderson photograph. Each photo will be personally
autographed by Richard in advance of the event. This special
photograph comes courtesy of our good friends Legends Memorabilia.

This special pre-autographed photo will also be available to a
limited number of Gate Pass ticket holders. We will announce the
price and limit to this offer when Gate Pass tickets go on sale.
