Feburary 2025 Update

I have some great news to share! We have successfully found our new venue.  After much to-ing and fro-ing the contracts have been signed!  We are returning to Kensington High Street, and I’m thrilled to announce that we’ll be hosting our event at the Copthorne Tara Hotel. We’ve secured the largest space in the hotel, and I must say, the staff has been incredibly accommodating after hearing about our situation with the Holiday Inn cancellation. This might turn out to be a blessing in disguise and this change is apt for our Fool year and the space is bigger and better! Additionally, they are offering a special room rate, and I will provide more information on this as soon as the code is available.

This year’s lineup offers an international platform, and I’m considering reintroducing our ‘Tabletop Tarot’ sessions during the lunch breaks, much like we did in the early days. This format allows for smaller gatherings around tables instead of just a main stage, giving you the freedom to pick and choose the sessions that interest you.   To be honest I am thinking out loud lol but after 22 years, change is good.

I had the pleasure of being interviewed Jolanda, aka TarotJo we had a chat about the conference, and she asked me some really interesting questions such as …. If the conference was a Tarot card which one would it be (good question) after a moment or two it came to me, but you will have to listen here to find out more https://youtu.be/MKsTEn0A8e8

My Tarot by the sea retreat in April is full, we do have space for a couple of day attendees on Friday 4th April, I am so looking forward to this. http://tarotconference.co.uk/special-events/

Finally, I have a new website, I really felt that after a sticky start to 2025 I needed to shift the energy. The new website is very clean and unfussy, let me know your thoughts.

    2025 has had an interesting start and I am hoping the Hermit year improves.

    July is typically a quiet period for our conference preparations, aside from following up with attendees who have been holding a ticket on deposit I took the opportunity to take a break with my family and enjoyed a wonderful 7-day stretch of sunshine in Marbella (what is going on with our weather)?

    March was a whirlwind. Each year, I attend the London Book Fair with Steven Bright, other than a good catch-up with Steven, the visit is primarily to reconnect with publisher friends and to secure items for the UK Tarot Conference goodie bags. I’m aware that I’ve set a high standard for these goodie bags—arguably the…

    On June 6th, I had the pleasure of hosting a one-day Tarot event, held near my home in Canterbury, Kent. After months of pondering themes, I realised that sticking with the title—UK Tarot Conference—was perfectly fine.  Having hosted the Tarot conference for 23 years, I believe the name is well-established and stands strong on its own….
