In this print titled "Everyone is talking Tribbles and Klingons at the Crest Hotel in Newcastle" we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Gallieo Con III, also known as the 22nd British Star Trek Convention. It was a hot summer day on August 22,1986, when trekkies from all corners gathered at the prestigious Crest Hotel in Newcastle. The image captures a trekkie immersed in their surroundings, eagerly surveying the bustling convention grounds. Dressed in an elaborate costume that pays homage to their favorite Star Trek characters, they embody the passion and dedication shared by fans of this iconic science fiction franchise. This photograph not only showcases the enthusiasm for Star Trek but also highlights how leisure activities like conventions can bring people together who share common interests and hobbies. The attendees' costumes reflect their creativity and love for cosplay during this era of pop culture. As we delve into this snapshot from Memory Lane Prints, it's important to note that it represents a moment frozen in time – capturing not just a fandom but also an entire decade. The 1980s were marked by unique fashion trends and emerging subcultures such as Trekkies who found solace and camaraderie within these events.
