Big crowds expected at Brean for Queen music convention

-

Over one thousand Queen fans are expected to descend on Brean, near Burnham-On-Sea, for the 23rd annual Queen Fan Club Convention next weekend.

The event, being held at Pontins from March 28th-31st, will attract fans from all over the world, including from as far away as America and Australia.

Sheila Synnott, one of the event’s organisers, told Burnham-On-Sea.com: “The weekend is an opportunity for Queen fans from all over the world to meet up and talk about Queen and also catch up with old friends. The weekend’s programme includes live bands, discos, activites such as football and a scavenger hunt plus guest speakers.”

As well as being a fun event, the convention also raises money for charity through collections, sales and auctions.

Saturday will see the return of the ‘World Famous Redsox’, featuring Jamie Moses and Spike Edney with John Marter and Steve Stroud and special guest vocalist Jeff Scott Soto.

On Sunday the Italian tribute band Queenmania will be performing and among the VIP guest speakers with a Queen connection will be Peter Freestone and Mike Moran.
