Hello friends! We at The Jeremy Brett Sherlock Holmes Podcast are proud to bring you another event to celebrate this wonderful series that so many around the world enjoy. After the success of 2024's Brettcon event and the astonishing and delightful feedback we received from it, there was clearly so much love for this show and desire for celebrating it that we decided to dip our toe in the event waters again and bring you all Brettcon 2. This time, however, it was imperative to us that we held it in the home of Granada Television, the production company that we all owe so much to, and so Brettcon 2 is going North as we "Return" the show to the place it was made, to Manchester, England. Manchester is regarded by many to be the UK’s second city and has a huge cultural footprint, so there will be plenty for you to do and visit as well as Brettcon.
Because this is such a special place for all the fans of the show, and such a special place to be holding our event with so many exciting opportunities, this year isn't just about one day-long event, it’s about an entire weekend of festivities. We have planned, not 1, not 2, but 3 events (with the possibility of a 4th)!! Therefore, we are delighted to be able to bring you, our community, 3 days of events to celebrate this timeless show, bringing cast, crew and fans together to mark this special occasion. Featuring Q&A panels, meet and greets, exclusive merchandise, memorabilia, location tours, and one-off episode screenings! Here's the schedule as it stands, more details can be found further down:
Friday 18th September - Location Walking Tour (AM & PM) in Central Manchester, hosted by some of the Granada Crew who worked on the show - register your interest by purchasing a ticket.
Saturday 19th September - Brettcon 2: The Return - A day-long event celebrating this great show, comprising of panels, screenings, prop displays, merchandise, autographs, photos and lots of surprises. This is not to be missed! (*VIP option available. See below)
Sunday 20th September - The Dancing Men Celebration at Leighton Hall - a once in a lifetime opportunity to watch one of the best loved episodes from the series, within the walls of the original filming location for Ridling Thorpe Manor, with the cast and crew who brought it to our screens. This is currently sold out, but we are working hard to secure some more tickets, so please join our waiting list.
