Please note that the cost of the Friday fringe events are not included in your ticket.
  
This is entirely informal and optional. Around one half of attendees are early arrivals. There are no reservations and the cost of food and drink is not included in your ticket. Please follow hashtag [http://twitter.com/search/realtime?q=%23gt15uk #gt15uk on Twitter] to find out who's arrived, or in case we decide to move locations.

This is informal and optional, but most attendees do participate. The cost of food and drink is not included in your ticket. Budget around &pound;15-20 per head for the restaurant including a drink.
