Category Archives: Destination Star Trek

Destination Star Trek is an officially licensed Star Trek Event ran by Media 10 and Massive Events. They have hosted the largest conventions in Europe. The Trekkie Girls have been official bloggers to all four events so far and can be seen in panels or hosting.

The first event in London 2012 boasted all five captains in attendance and was hailed the largest Star Trek Event in attendance.  It always boasts a great lineup pulling in guests that haven’t been seen in the Star Trek convention circuit for year, such as Will Wheaton in 2016.

Over the years the event has grown it’s portfolio of sets, now including The Original Series bridge, The Next Generation Bridge, a Borg Alcove and Klingon Battle Bridge chair.

Considered an ‘event’ rather than a convention it hosts panels, costume contests, parties, a museum and trading stalls.

In 2016 the event smashed it’s own Guinness World Record of ‘The Most People Dressed as a Star Trek Character.

Twitter Takeover – It’s all about William Shatner!

We're very excited about tonight's DSTG Twitter and Facebook takeover.

He was saving the galaxy before we were in diapers! He is the one-and-only and Destination Star Trek Germany headline guest WILLIAM SHATNER!!! 

Gosh we love him and we can't wait to see him in Frankfurt next week. Until then we're going to dedicate a whole takeover session to how awesome he is. See you tonight at 8pm GMT/9pm CET.


Guess the Guest

Tonight we hosted the Destination Star Trek Germany Twitter and Facebook takeover and decided to do something a little different. We played a trivia game based on the newly announced full guest line-up.

In case you're wondering here are the answers. 

We asked you a question and you guess the character. But the answer needed to be one of the DSTG guests from this lineup http://www.destinationstartrek.com/guests

First person to answer correctly can have the gift of feeling as smug as a Vulcan winning a game baseball. (that's a thing!)

Ok, this character’s parents were both Starfleet officers?
- Geordi La Forge / LeVar Burton

DSTG Takeover!

Remember last October when we Vulcan nerve pinched several security guards to give you a sneak peek of Destination Star Trek London? (At least, that's how we remember it!)

Well we can't wait until Feb '14 to get into Destination Star Trek Germany so we have masked our warp trail, set up transporter scattering devices and dry cleaned our lucky starfleet undies because we are taking over the official @StarTrek_DST twitter account!

Join us every Wednesday at 20:00 GMT (21:00 CET) where we will talk all things Star Trek and get excited about next Feb's event. 

This Wednesday 20th we will be talking about the guest line up. Who is going? Who do you want to see? Who are you most excited about meeting? 

Keep an eye out for … Continue Reading ››

TNG Tastic!

We thought from the first guest announcements that there was a slight leaning towards Deep Space Nine guest for February's Destination Star Trek Germany but like Spock trying to fool a supercomputer, they have us again! The next wave of guests seems to be rather Next Gen. Although Michael Dorn lends himself to more than one franchise.
 
Personally, we LOVE Marina, Dorn and Frakes on the stage together. They are a bundle of laughs and it's been a while since we have seen the love-triangle trio get their Imzadi on! 
We really hope they get to take to the stage together, we won't want to miss that.
 
So far the guest line is pretty huge:
William Shatner
Brent Spiner
Jonathan Frakes

Guess Who Is Going to Germany?

Yesterday we were put out of our misery as the next Star Trek Destination was finally revealed. Carole and Sam met up to discuss their thoughts and hopes for Destination Star Trek Germany and as usual, looking for clues.....

At a glance:
Location: Frankfurt Messe, much bigger than London ExCel. Two airports serving.
Ticket Prices: Comparable to DSTL at today's exchange rate.
The difference is with the premium ticketing options with Silver, Gold, Platinum and VIP fairing slightly cheaper than DSTL. Whilst offering roughly the same. The only significant difference is at DSTL a Captains Talk was included. So we presume the price difference is due to this.
From comparing, we'd either go Silver or Latinum (and that ain't no typo!). Also note that priority queuing is available only for Latinum and VIP. This is bad news if you normally would go Gold, but good news if you go … Continue Reading ››

New Destination Star Trek to be revealed!

It's the moment we have been waiting for since we shuffled out of London Excel with a Romulan Ale hangover and someones vulcan ear stuck to our left boob.  It's coming back!!!!  Check out: www.destinationstartrek.com
 
As we recall from last year, the convention gods love torturing us by slowly drip feeding us information and it looks like the same is happening again with the next reveal in 5 days. 
So keep an eye on your inbox, check their website and make sure you're following @StarTrek_DST on twitter. And us of course! Because we will be doing our usual detective work to uncover What The Spock is happening.
Star Trek London was such a blast but you … Continue Reading ››
