Star Trek

My names Lucian, I'm 21 and I've been brought up with Star Trek.
I have now decided I'm ready, I've purchased a costume, my phaser is at the ready and my tricorder is waiting to scan a new enviroment. Star Trek London 2012.
I was wondering if anyone could tell me what its like at a Star Trek convention, what kind of activities there will be in store?
What are the queues like?
Any stories or advice would be well appreciated.
Live long and prosper

Hi! I almost went to the one in Tennessee, but I decided it was a bit too far, and for a while I'll only be attending local conventions. Anyway, good luck!

Hey guys! I'm going to my first Star Trek convention in LAS VEGAS 2012. I've decided to dress as an Orion Slave Girl

  but i wanna know...whats the convention gona be like? I must admit, I'm a bit nervous/excited.

I've heard Vegas is HUGE, but where I went, was Tennesse. Read it in Nashville Star Trek Convention.

The one in Tennesse was very nice.
