TFN:Mini-Con® Manchester 2024 officially gets underway, as our main hall opens to attendees. Whether it's our Guests, Traders, or the Forge that you're most keen to see, you'll find it all here!
As with our other conventions, we expect the first hour to be a busy period. If you'd prefer a more laid-back start to the day, feel free to socialise in the hotel bar until you're ready to enter the convention - there'll be plenty of TFNationals on hand to keep you company!

See our guests for a final time, and maybe, just maybe we'll have something fun to tell you before we depart.
It's goodbye for now, as TFN:Mini-Con® Manchester 2024 comes to a close. Don't worry, plenty of people are staying overnight if you'd like to socialise in the hotel bar - we'll see you there!
