No more than a few feet away from Buckingham Palace itself is St. James’s Park, a location we held the "Never Mind the Beyblade" event at no so long ago.
And on the 6th of August we'll be there again!

A brilliant park, and a brilliant venue, this years summer tournament will be held at this great location.
The point we’ve chosen has good food and toilet facilities, being no more than a few feet from public amenities and a cafe.

The meeting point will be just up and to the left of point 4 on the St. James’s park map:
http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/st_james_park/

You’ll also be able to see on the map by clicking on “Transport & info”, the nearest tube stations.

If you need further details on the location, try google maps: click here, and use the 'directions' option.

We'll be meeting at point 4 (The blue bridge) at 12:00pm, and will move to an area of nearby grass at 1:00 to start the tournament. The tournament will most probably go on until around 3:30, yet it could go on for less, or possibly longer.

We'd recommend travelling to the event from Green Park station (one stop on from Oxford Circus), as it's closest to the event.
• The tournament style will be block round robin, since this worked well at the last event.
• The main tournament will be MFB only, but free battles will allow plastic and HMS as usual.

Items we'd recommend for you to bring would include a hooded coat or jacket in case of rain, possibly an umbrella, but here's hoping the summer will hold out for a while longer!

If it's sunny, make sure to bring sun cream, sunglasses, and possibly a baseball cap or trucker and some water (as we'll be spending a good couple of hours there).

We'd also recommend that if you do intend to take part in the tournament, then bring your own beys.

This may sound like an obvious suggestion, but in the past people have come without, expecting to borrow other peoples.

This would not be a problem, but more than half the blades that have been lent out to people have either come back damaged from improper use, or not come back at all (as those who visited expo will know).

Obviously this has made people a lot more reluctant to lend out their own beys.

The entry fee will be the same as usual, free with a blader passport (£6 to buy), or £3 otherwise, and as usual there is no age restriction.

We hope you'll be interested in this tournament, and enjoy it as you have done with previous tournaments.

Thanks,
theflightyellz

Sorry, Can't come. Parents are busy and they couldn't find anyone else to take me. That and they won't let me go on my own.

I'll probably see you at the next meet up we have. That is, if both of us are going.
In the OP, you meant to say that people will be meeting to the top left of point 4, right? Point 5 is 'The Mall'.

Also, what's happening between meeting at 12 and getting to the place at 1? Would it be fine to get there in between 12 and 1, or even just getting there like a few minutes before 1 (I've got some stuff to do before if I do come)? Obviously this wouldn't be ideal if you have things planned for the hour.

Yeah, it's supposed to be Point 4.

The last time we were here, we gathered at the Blue Bridge at around 12ish, and at about 12:20-12:30 we headed off to our designated place. Because of the unpredictable nature of the weather, this could either be the aforementioned bandstand, which I doubt you'll be able to miss, or just a section of grass. It should be quite easy to spot a large group of children/teenagers crouched down, anyway, haha. Someone normally puts their telephone number up, also ...

We do normally start at around 1, to let everyone get here.
Looking forward to tomorrow, just packed all the stuff I'm taking with me, which is half as much as I usually do, just the essential combo's and a few spare parts this time. Can't wait to see everyone again Grin

Where have you been?

So pissed off. I had all my carp packed up for the tournament, including an attack stadium but I got held up at the stuff I had to do beforehand.

-.-

It would've been nice to match faces with usernames Unhappy
Was looking out for you; was really hoping you weren't in the park somewhere spending the afternoon looking for us, haha.

Shame though, hope we see you next time!

Anyway, congrats to the winners, sorry about the prizes; will get them sent to you asap!
Oh, it's over already? Who won, ellz, Lee, or someone I didn't expect?
