Pillaged from Transfandom.com, after a tip-off from The Hub...
Our man Aerosurge is currently attending the Wizard World convention as we speak, and is phoning in all the information to us. So without further waiting, here is BotCon's BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! (Get ready to cheer you Europeans!)
BotCon Europe - This Fall!
November 3rd 2002
Wolsey Fall, Cheshunt, United Kingdom/England
Guests: Neil Kaplan, Wally Wingert, Vince DiCola, Simon Furman, Andrew Wildman, Lee Sulivan, Geoff Senior
More information on it as it becomes available!
Plus it looks like we'll be getting exclusive toys.
sweet, First Transforce, Now Botcon, its a pitty you Conventions are so easy to attract to the UK
also I think the reason it is in the UK is that the UK generally a) has a prooven record that tf conventions can work there (Transforce) and b) has a large (if not the largest) community of active transfans.
The next biggest fan base does appear to be Holland
Yes but for the first one they have decided to hold it somewhere where it will be popular.
To put it into perspective I bet there are more posters here and at transfans (the two places I visit) alone from the UK than from the rest of Europe. Come next year it wouldn't surprise me if it was held in holland or somewhere close to it

Damn! ....and I thought it was gonna be held in the UK simply because I lived here........
Heh heh, no my man, while it might be the greatest piece of work you've ever laid your eyes on, Battle Drive ain't gonna be up on the silver screen anytime soon. Glad you enjoyed it, though.
