The event starts at 6:30pm in the B-Bar to allow time for attendees to get a drink, prior to the main event. However, the venue is open from lunchtime so if you want to grab a bite before 6:30pm they serve a variety of Thai dishes—check out the menu here. Any drinks that are purchased from the B-Bar can be taken into the theatre. Doors will open at 7:00pm where you will be checked in by one of the PDF team—please make sure you have your tickets ready to scan. You will be seated by one of the Ushers before the talk officially starts at 7:30pm.

The evening will commence with a short intro from the PDF team before Morag’s talk. There will be a 30-minute intermission around halfway through the talk to allow everyone to get to the bar and refresh glasses. The talk will continue after the break. After the talk the floor will be opened up to allow a Q&A session with Morag, which will finish around 10:00pm. The bar will remain open after the talk until around 11pm where all are encouraged to gather and socialise.

Thanks to Colossal there will be a limited run of the famous PDF screen-printed beermats to take away.
