We'll be offering the ability to reserve your table to watch the competition in the Empress Ballroom at WDM25.
This is 100% optional and there will always be enough tables for anyone without a reservation.
Table reservations cost £62 + admin fee per day with each table seating up to 9 people. You do not need to have purchased your Worlds entry tickets prior to booking a table, but must abide by the rules of table reservations below. A maximum of 40 tables will be available for purchase for each day.
Each day must be reserved separately.
Table Reservations booking will be opened in the new year.
Up to 40 tables are open to be reserved. Once these have been sold, all other tables in the Empress Ballroom will be free for anyone to sit at on the day.
The table map above is not every table that is available in the ballroom. More tables will be available around the ballroom and on the sides of the ballroom that are open for anyone to sit at.
Reservation will be from door opening until ballroom close after the competition in the Empress Ballroom only. No reservations stand in the evening – all tables are open for anyone in the evening.
Your reserved table must be at least 70% occupied (i.e 6 people out of 9) by the time competition starts each day (usually 1 hour after doors open). If not, your table becomes open for anyone to sit at and you lose all rights. Our stewards will remove reservation signs from any table that does not meet the minimum occupancy by the stated time. No exceptions. No refunds.
Reservations are made on the seap map on a first-come-first-served basis. Green tables are free to book. Greyed out tables have already been booked. You must book each day separately.
Table reservations cost £62 + ticket fee per day. Each table contains 9 seats.
Next year, Fast Track entry will allow early entry to the Spanish Hall & Arena 10 minutes before general doors open at the start of the day and all ballrooms in the evening. Please note, Fast Track will no longer be available for the Empress Ballroom at the start of each day. Table Reservations for the daytime in the Empress Ballroom will open later in the year.
For Spectators that may have reduced mobility needs, we are launching an option for 'Limited Mobility' so you can make us aware in advance. For those spectators with limited mobility, we will endeavour to bring you into the Empress Ballroom early so you do not need to stay in the queue too long and before other attendees enter.
