Angela Taylor's beautiful art for Grand Tribunal 2008

Grand Tribunal UK is the European convention for Atlas Games' Ars Magica role-playing game.

Our next event will be in August 2014. The provisional dates and location are currently under discussion on the mailing list but will be:

• Friday evening, Saturday and Sunday
• One weekend during the period late July - early September
• Cheltenham, Gloucestershire UK

We'll be expanding the content on this wiki-based website over the coming months. We encourage attendees to add your own content - find out how.

Tickets will be on sale at least six months before the event. Join our mailing list to be informed as soon as tickets go on sale.

Practical information

• Tickets - how much it costs (quick answer: very cheap) and how to pay
• Venue - directions, maps, facilities, accommodation, transport and disabled access
• Programme - session times, early arrival meet & greet, restaurant and pub times
• Games - the individual campaigns being run, who is running them, and how to sign up to play
• People - staff, attendees - introduce yourself
• Ethos - policies, guidelines, collections of thoughts

Keep in touch

• Grand Tribunal Yahoo Group is our email list where we do most of the organising, and where you can talk directly to the organisers and attendees
