Why November?

With summer fast approaching, we expect lots of people to be taking holidays and generally enjoying the great British weather. Also we want students from City University to be involved and November will be the first time the building is free in the new term. November also gives us plenty of time to plan for an awesome BarCamp London 8.

How do I get a ticket and what happens to original BCL8 ticket holders?

We will be announcing full ticketing details closer to the event, however we have guaranteed priority tickets for the 154 people who signed up for the original June date, and we expect to release a lot more to go along with them. Those with June tickets will receive an email during October with details on how this will work.
