Not the sleep, but the gaming exhibition.

My 10 year old daughter is wanting to go. Is it as bad as it sounds?

Anyone been?

Went in the past back in the days it was at Telford and it's okay but as you'll imagine. I had a BYOC pass so sat in hall more for the social side of meeting people I played games with.

For me personally didn't enjoy it really, walked to town and sat in pubs instead.

It then moved to Rioch Arena in Coventry I went once and it was 'okay' at best and I've never been back since. Obviously now it's at Birmingham NEC but the structure remains the same I'm sure. Being 10 years old I'm presuming you'd just go for the day around the Halls etc, in honestly I wouldn't bother but different people like different things.

I've never played or go involved in Minecraft but at Coventry when they started doing the Exhibition for it, there was queue's of 6-7 hours!!!!!!!
