Train Tickets
Advance train tickets are on sale for various destinations for September. However, Northern (the train company serving Haltwhistle, our nearest station) appears to be releasing Advance tickets about eight weeks ahead.

So, you may wish to book your trains around early August. Though if you find a good deal earlier, go for it! Don't forget to buy or use a railcard if you are eligible to buy your tickets for a discount.

P.S. If you’re joining us for the Beamish Open Air Museum trip after the con, please note that Chester-le-Street and Durham are the nearest stations.

Greetings everyone! We are proud to reveal our official T-shirt design! Courtesy of our resident artist @Mikuplantman!

Attendees, if you wish to get this year's shirt and you haven’t ordered one yet: log back into the reg system, set your size, and make the payment.

You have to order until the date reg closes (Saturday, 26 August).

EDIT: This announcement is out of date. A small number of places are open until Saturday 26 August, or until they're taken.

Full House!
As of today (Tuesday, 11 July), we have reached our maximum number of registrations. Thank you all so much for your support!

However!
If you're still interested in joining us, you can still register if you like. You'll then go onto a waiting list. If places become available, they will be offered to people on the list in their registered order. So please continue to register.

If you have registered and still need to pay, as a reminder, you have 28 days after your reg date until Saturday 26 August to pay. After this point, your reg will be closed, your details will be deleted, and your place will be offered to the next person on the waiting list.

If, unfortunately, you can no longer join us, please tell us by email: events@wildnorth.uk. This will free up space for someone on the list.

We can only accept cancellations via email. Social media and chat messages may not be picked up. Please take a look at our cancellation policy for more information, and remember you can also transfer your reg to someone else.

Oh, and remember your Railcards!

Did you know you can add a fursona picture onto your conbadge? Go to your registration page and click the Twizell icon next to your name.

While you're on your registration, please take a moment to check that your details are current. This includes your approximate arrival and departure times if you know them. This will help us plan for travel and transport.

These can be found by going to Registration Info, then Gimmicks.

If you're unsure of your arrival/departure times, don't worry. You will have until early September to update your details.

Evening Flufftails, Twizell here, giving you a snippet of what is in store for the Twizell Maze!

First, we will be bringing back the night of Fur'e'oke! Be sure to get your vocal cords ready to sing some tunes!

We have provided a song sheet if you want to see what songs will be available: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10Jk5tNTv3E_Xln7Al6vaiQyvEjcdk4Ks/edit?usp=sharing&ouid=100887034485147574102&rtpof=true&sd=true

Do you need help finding a song you'd like to sing on the night? Do not fret! You can contact @Greskilvulf, give him the song/artist, and he can do his best to find what you're looking for and add it to the list in time for Wild North!

The Wild North Kubb Tournament is back once again!

For those unfamiliar with Kubb, it’s an old Viking lawn game of knocking down your opponent's towers before finishing the king. (Here's a link with a quick rule overview https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtqVqrcVgVY )

This is a team event, and we're asking interested people to sign up ahead of the con.

We need at least four teams of three players, and yes, fursuiters can play and are actively encouraged! (Though we do have a limit of one suiter per team.)

So gather your raiding party, pillage your enemies' towers and topple the king!

You can email us at events@wildnorth.uk or send a message to @WildNorthComms with team sign-ups, and we'll get you on the roster. We look forward to some exciting team names!

Let’s see your battle skills!

We currently have a place available. If you know someone who’s missed out so far, please let them know!

Less than a week until registration closes! The closing date is Saturday 26 August 2023

We want to inform you that three places are currently available for Wild North!

If you want a spot, you have between now and the end of Saturday, 26 August, to register below: https://regsys.myfurry.name/NEU/User/?id=5
