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:

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

Don't think I've even posted in this thread yet, seeing as it was put down that I was coming before I had a chance to say lol.

Looks like it's gonna be a pretty good turnout (you can add one more too since my brother is coming) - can't wait to see people again and hopefully win some battles. ; ) Only a few days away now so if you haven't already got transport, beys and such sorted, you probably should work on that now! Opening post looks like it covers everything anyone needs to know but if there are any questions then I'm sure they can be answered, just ask soon before it's too late. ><

See you all there! Rocky xxx
and, Do you know where is there a station of the tube near the tournament ???
As usual, FrenchBlader refuses to read any information clearly written in the opening post / make any effort to research.

There are six possible stations you could get off at, depends what direction you're coming from.

You can buy MFB at the tournament. Here is the link to the sellers thread.
just wanted to know, i recently got a metal bottom and i've never seen one before let alone one being used in a tournament so would this part be tournament legal?
If it's MS (the bottom of Burn Phoenix), then yes it's legal.
If not, (assuming haven't got Poison Giraffe, since it's technically not out yet) then no, it isn't.
Wasn't really the place to ask this though, use the main ask a question topic in future.

Good luck with it all!

We may have to move to a slightly more tree covered area on the other side of the bank to where we were last time. It's only on the other side of the small bridge, shouldn't be too much of a problem.

Still, bring hoodies and coats.etc to be safe.

Is there anyone here who could bring stadiums?
Looking at you ♥ and Blitz, but if anyone else has one to bring, this would be really helpful.
We really need these guys, no stadiums, no tournament :\
umbrellas maybe just in case a battle starts and it starts raining at the same time
[EDIT] what if that does happen will battles be immediatly stopped and restarted after rain stops or what
Doesnt someone hve these tent like things or these tall beach umbrelas we could use that (just an idea)
we can always put all the stadiums under a big tree so it wont interupt the battles
its just trees wont shut out 100% of the rain and if a couple drops of rain fall on to a stadium it could kinda carp up a battle

This will probably be the best we can do unfortunately, although we might actually be able to use the bandstand.
Where we had the tournament last time is the ground where the bandstand is supposed to be.

Turns out that its only there in the summer (it now being summer), so it should be there.
If not I can donate a couple pink cinderella umbrellas haha
but seriously ill bring a couple any way j in c
