35th International Queen Convention 2022
The Official Queen Fan Club Convention Since the conventions began, we have had many guests from the Queenworld past who tell their own unique stories. How did Freddie design the famous gauntlet? What was it like when Freddie met Montserrat Caballe? How did Roger put his first band together? Stories unfold and your questions are answered by the people that experienced them first-hand. We have also had many exclusives at the event. New albums played, exclusive videos shown of documentaries and live concerts from the past and present. We have also had appearances of Brian's Red Special, Roger’s drum kit, band stage costumes, Freddie’s stamp collection and even Freddie's Rolls Royce! The possibilities of what you could see are endless. At the last convention we saw Mike Moran on stage, we enjoyed fascinating unheard clips from Greg Brooks Queen Archivist and Simon Lupton with the UK Premier of a Documentary, Live music from Tim Staffell and his band, Crazy Little Things from Holland, Dios Salve a la Reina from Argentina…it is unlike anything you have ever seen before! This is a party that never ends, a place to meet up with old friends and to make new ones. If you have never been before, why not come along and join in the fun? Plans are underway to make this year's the most exciting yet, with more announcements being made very soon about the guests appearing.

Overview
These four great musicians from the North East have come together to perform Queen. They are full of energy, passion and accuracy and we can’t wait to hear them!
Overview
A firm favourite for convention goers, we know we are in for a great night when these five guys hit the stage. Gigging all over the world, in their words ‘We don't go out to impersonate Queen, but to put our slant on its legend Rock music’ - Let them rock us on Saturday night.
Overview
King is a band of professional musicians who are all huge fans of the most iconic rock ‘n’ roll band of the 70s and 80s, namely Queen. But they have chosen to not just play their songs, but to adapt them into what they might have sounded like 15 years later. The energy of the band is so communicative that the audience naturally move their heads to the music and sing along. King is the best band to light the audience on fire.
