The Hercules Elton John Fan Club will be hosting a fan convention to celebrate its 20th anniversary in 2008. The event will take place in Munich, Germany, from 21-23 November 2008 and will coincide with Elton’s “Red Piano” show in Munich which takes place on 22 November 2008.

More detailed information about the fan convention is available. You may also register for the event as well as book your hotel for Munich and order tickets for the "Red Piano" show in Munich on 22 November 2008.

Please use the registration form (Word form - PDF) to register by 8 July 2008.

With four weeks to go until the registration deadline, feedback hasn't really been overwhelming so far. We understand that for many of you it is not easy to plan ahead that far in advance, and scraping together money for the trip, event and concert ticket will also take time. However, we are still disappointed about the low acceptance, especially since we have listened to your wishes from a recent poll, i.e. we have picked a major European city for the event (as voted for by 41.7%) and we have linked the event to an Elton John show (as voted for by 42.8%).

You may ask why the registration deadline is as early as five months before the actual event. This, unfortunately, is necessary due to deadlines imposed on us for the hotel reservation, ticket block booking and other events during the convention. Furthermore, with the summer months just ahead, many of you will possibly soon be on vacation anyway.

Registration after July 8, 2008 will be possible, but cannot be guaranteed as the event will be limited to a maximum of 100 attendees. Please note that we reserve the right to cancel the event in case we will not receive at least 50 registrations by the above mentioned deadline.

If it turns out that the fans don't want an event like this, fine. We will simply call it off - the event is not vital for anybody at Hercules. But we will no less feel kidded as for years the fans have asked us to organize a fan event. And if you feel the event is too expensive, the programme is boring, or whatever ... please talk to us! Also if you cannot afford paying everything in advance right now ... please talk to us!

This is not a commercial event to make anybody rich, it is meant to be an event for Elton fans from Elton fans. Your complaints, critic, suggestions, etc. are welcome - always.
