Its in Brighton - UK.

Will be held in the summer, and i need to know when you can make it so i can organise a suitable date. so if you are comming, post here with the months your aviable till. Im thinking around mid July / Early August.

tickets are £15 btw and will deffo be worth it considering the amount of knowledge you'll gain and fun you'll have! last HBH Con was a great success, and this one will be HBH Con v2!

Saturday 28th July -> hbhcon (this is a full day, 9:30am - 5:30pm, packed full of decent lectures, demonstrations, video's, workshop, competitions etc!)

Sunday 29th July -> socialising, pubs, wifi, relaxed chatting day. (1/2 day, 11:00am - 4:30pm)

So please ONLY post below if you are comming and when you'll be able to make it.

Well, I am 18 now. Can kinda do what ever I want. :) Not sure if I can leave the country as some people here might know why.

But if I can gather up some money, and can leave the country I might come.

Might lecture on a few things also, I am sure there are a lot of people that would like to meet me and a few people I would like to confront that would possibly be going. :)

But yea, count me like a 70% in for any month. My birthday is in August FYI.

  • If I cannot come I will just remove this post. *

Some thing you might wanna bare in mind (as im sure it will effect other members) "All writen GCSE exams take place between Friday 18th May and Friday 30th of June"

any time in August and im in for sure.

any time over the summer if i can. gotta get a passport O.o is their gonna be an age limit on this like with defcon? bastards held in a casino. only 21 and up. its not right :(


Mr_Cheese's Avatar

all ages are welcome.

it will be same layout as last time.

day 1 = talks / lectures / competitions / demonstrations etc etc etc day 2 = informal talks / chatting with members / relaxing / chilled out day etc

both days you still learn alot from and both are good fun, so if you intend to stay for the second day, you'll need to be prepared to find cheap accomodation.

Any1 know where abouts in brighton its gonna be? as if i go i would like 2 get accomadation quite near as i dont have a car :happy:

brighton isnt that big, you can walk from residential areas into the town fairly quickly. and you could sleep in your car.

but if you want exact address im thinking of the same place as last time (depends on numbers, if they're too large then i hire another venue).

So at the mo, im thinking it'll be in Brighton Media Centre, which is on Middle Street.

basically in the centre of town, down on the seafront. theres plenty of hotels and BnB's near the seafront and near marine parade.

whole point of this thread is to work out a date.

so far late July/Early August seems fine. so unless people say otherwise it'll be somewhere inbetween.

i might come down but i dont really no how i would do it like how much would a b&b cost im only 15 and if it after gcse then thats grate


Mr_Cheese's Avatar

BnB's are around £20 - £25 for a night, which includes wifi access.

most expensive thing is the train fair if you live far away.

perhaps ask your parents, considering the hbhcon is a educational event and you'll learn loads. even talks on how to break into the penetration testing market etc

so its worth while comming. see if your parents can chip in.
