Dealers' Den Closed

Afternoon folks! Our Dealers' Den is now closed for the day. Thank you to everyone who came by to support our Dealers, y'all are appreciated!

If you had a virtual ticket but we're not called to attend the Den, we apologise that the Den did not have the space to accommodate you. Tickets will not roll over to tomorrow's Den and you will have to log into the queue when it opens tomorrow to take another ticket for that day's Den.

Sunday Traffic Along The Clyde

Heya everyone! There's a Rangers football match at the Ibrox Stadium tomorrow and as a result we expect a significant amount of pedestrian traffic along the footpath between the Crowne Plaza and Hilton Garden Inn along the Clyde over Sunday afternoon and early evening.

Please remember that we have a shuttle bus running between the two venue hotels which you can use if the pedestrian traffic is off-putting for you.

Don't Be In A Rush To Flush

Hey everyone! Our colleagues at the Crowne Plaza have asked us to remind you all not to flush anything other than toilet paper down the toilets. There have already been blockages requiring call outs to fix and this has an impact on our relationship with the venue.

For anything else you need to dispose of, there are chemical waste bins in the public bathrooms around the venue, and at the end of the bedroom corridors.

Please be sure to dispose of everything in the proper way. Thanks!

Fire Alarm Update

Hey folks! Well, that was a brisk evening walk for all of us in the Crowne Plaza! A quick update on what happened to dispel any rumours and give you some certainty. The alarm was caused by a system fault in a plant room - there was no actual fire and no malicious act involved. Apologies for the interruption to your evening - please get back to whatever you were up to!

Further Shuttle Bus Update:

Thank you all for your patience! The shuttle bus is currently loading. But will be moving the pickup point over to the Argyll Foyer entrance until further notice.

Yet another shuttle bus update:

What is this, a bus announcement system?

The shuttle bus will now resume from the main hotel entrance, not the Argyll foyer entrance.

Thank you all! Have a wonderful rest of your night

Den Virtual Queue Closing!

Afternoon folks! It has been an absolutely crazy year for the Dealers' Den with the virtual queue helping us to pass more people through the Den than ever before.

There are still even more of you waiting however, more than we will be able to get through the Den today. With that in mind we are closing for new tickets to enter the Den and will get through as many of the existing tickets as we can. We appreciate that not everyone in the queue currently will be able to attend the Den today and we can only apologise, but the demand this year has been absolutely unprecedented.

We will be asking for feedback on the virtual queue as part of our usual post-con survey and we would really appreciate your comments, good or bad, as we look to improve both the system and the explanations around it for next year.

Thanks everyone for helping our dealers to have such an amazing year and we hope you'll come back next year to support them even more.
