Which nights should you book for Musical Con 2026 17–18 Oct 2026?
If you are attending on Saturday 17 October, consider arriving on Friday 16 October — many delegates prefer to settle in the night before rather than travel on the day of the first session. For those attending both days, book for Friday 16 and Saturday 17, with checkout on Sunday 18 October. If you plan to leave after the final session on Saturday, a single night (Friday 16) may suffice — but staying through Saturday night avoids an early morning departure.
