Hello Grant and everybody!
The complete event runs from 1:00 to 7:15pm, but Fiona is playing from 1:30 to 2:30pm. Thanks for the confirmation Richard - I assume we will plan to arrive a little earlier and hopefully have the opportunity of a chat with Fiona (perhaps Ian too?) before the gig. Best wishes Grant |

If this event is free, does this mean people can just turn up on the day, or is it necessary to book (free) tickets in advance?

Hello John! :wink: There's no advance booking for this free concert, but it's advisable to get there early to be sure of a good position. I hope to see you there.  Richard |

Hello Steve! I'm pleased you can make this concert. I still intend to arrive by 11:30am, so I'll be looking out for you. We might go for a meal in the afternoon when Fiona has finished her performance. Best wishes, Richard |

Thanks Richard,
Yes I will stay for the meal also as it's a Saturday!
Looking forward to seeing Fiona again, and hoping to get some better pictures as its outdoors! particularly as Fiona moves around so fast, its difficult to catch that under artificial light.
Cheers
Steve

Hello Steve and everybody! I found myself at Canary Wharf earlier today, so I had a little explore. The likely venue for our meal is the Slug and Lettuce, near the main entrance to the Jubilee Line station, but there are some alternatives including All Bar One nearby. Richard |

Hello folks! If you're coming to see Fiona at Canary Wharf on Saturday, Canada Square Park is above the eastern end of the main shopping mall, between the tallest tower block and Waitrose. The DLR and Jubilee Line stations are both about 150 yards from the park. Three days to go! See you there, Richard |
