    I think that's an excellent name. Knightmare Knightfest 2014.

      I guess KnightFest would be the obvious does-what-it-says-on-the-tin name.

      I set up a Knightmare Society in uni which inevitably became KnightSoc (it was quite a short lived affair which basically amounted to a single pub crawl in which some people were guided from one watering hole to the next with boxes on their heads. Health and safety nightmare!).

      I can't help thinking that there's a less generic, more KM specific name out there, waiting to be plucked from the garden of inspiration. You know, like 'Ooh Nasty 2014'. But not that.

            How about The Antechamber? I do like the sound of KnightFest though!

                    There needs to be a competition for the best "Ooh nasty" lol.

                    I thought of another name.

                    "The Knightmare Convention" Spent all day at work to come up with that.

                    Catchy isn't it?

                      Nastycon? LOL could be mistaken for some kind of dodgy porn type of affair however!

                        KM Con has a certain corporate sheen, if you like that sort of thing.

                        ConQuest?

                        Con Justicia is Spanish for 'with justice' which is obviously totally unusable but i think nicely represents the spirit of the show

                                Some conventions also have a sub-title, like 'KnightFest 2014: Live The Knightmare'. I can already picture the follow-up, 'KnightFest 2024: Recurring Knightmare'!

                                  KnightFair!

                                  I like this, except spell it KnightFayre - looks more medieval, and closer to the programme's spelling.

                                    Yes, I was just going to suggest spelling it Fayre for those very reasons! Though I mainly just like the fact that it rhymes with Knightmare. RHYMES I say!!

                                      Maybe name it after a location within the series, instead of creating puns?

                                        I like the idea of the venue becoming 'Knightmare Castle' for the day and spaces within the event being named after specific locations (Hugo Myatt interview, 1400, Merlin's Throne Room...or whatever) but I'm not sure a location should be the name of the convention itself...

                                        Happy to be convinced though! (not that it really matters what I think )

                                          I have to say, within Knightmare, I detest the name "Knightmare Castle". For me, it's so fourth wall breaking.

                                          Don't I also recall this being a point of debate among fans? The name of the castle, that is?
