This will be Steam Powered Giraffe’s last fan-meeting experience of the Asylum Steampunk Festival. Come along to the Heritage Centre and meet members of the band. They will not be in costume – you will be meeting the real people behind the robots. Hopefully they will have some merch left for sale (this cannot be guaranteed) and you will be able to grab an autograph and a selfie. Please be aware that this will be a time-limited feature. If the queue is long, we will do our best to advise those who are unlikely to gain entry before the event ends at 2:50pm. Consider purchasing tickets for Saturday's Meet and Merch instead to guarantee better merch offerings, and a chance to get a selfie with the band in their robot makeup and costumes.
