Star Wars Celebration Europe II – Day 3
28 July 2013 @ 8:00 am – 5:00 pm
Sunday, July 28, 2013 * Mark Hamill and distinguished visitors – Anaheim 2015 – THANK YOU!
After the last two days had already flown by, Sunday brought the final sprint. As usual, we all peeled ourselves out of bed as early as possible and had breakfast to regain some strength after all the exertion.
More or less fit, but definitely in good spirits, we headed back to the exhibition halls.
Since we arrived a little earlier than usual, we could finally use the time to chat with the other exhibitors, wander through the halls and take photos in front of the many models and dioramas.
At least until the first visitors showed up right on time at half past nine and we had our hands full again. That wasn't going to change anytime soon, because the rush was as unrelenting as ever. So all kinds of questions were answered, tips given and plenty of shop talked.
To top it all off, even Kathleen Kennedy, the president of Lucasfilm, stopped by the booth for an interesting conversation.
In the afternoon came the long-awaited panel with Mark Hamill. The line was gigantic and stretched across half the fairgrounds. Since of course we couldn't just leave the booth unstaffed, some of our team members and helpers sacrificed themselves so the others could enjoy the show worry-free and slowly close the booth.
After a while we had made it through this last panel too and went, all together again, to the closing ceremony, where everything was reviewed once more and you could look back on the past three days.
There, the next Celebration was announced for spring 2015 in Anaheim, California.
When the fair closed to visitors shortly afterwards, we could tear down our booth in peace, say goodbye to everyone we had spent this event with and head home.
Just like the previous times, this event too became an unforgettable experience full of exciting but also exhausting activities and new acquaintances.
At this point we'd once again like to sincerely thank all visitors and above all our helpers Jan, Hendrik, Jasmin, Monika and Nick, who were with us this weekend.
Very special thanks go to Stefan, who not only supported us at the booth once again, but was also instrumental in building our wireless system and contributed to a unique performance on Friday!
We hope you had a great time, and we're excited for the next event.
