Well, folks, if you’re not on the Bloggers Bash mailing list, then you won’t have heard, but the committee has secured a venue. Yes, blogettes, the Bash is well and truly back, and trust me when I tell you, this year is going to be even bigger and better than last year.
If you don’t know what in the fuzzy bear I’m chirpsing about then where have you been for the last two years? The Bloggers Bash is an annual get together in London, England, for any and all bloggers. Doesn’t matter your platform, your theme, your content, or your word usage, if you blog, you’re welcome to come.
During the day we reveal the results of the Annual Bloggers Bash Awards as well as chat, talk writing, gossip, hug, hug and hug a bit more, eat, drink and be merry.
Ever wanted to meet the friends you’ve made blogging? Desperate to turn the virtual hug into a real one? Well now’s your chance.
June 10th 2017 will see the return of the 3rd Annual Bloggers Bash.
The 2017 Annual Bloggers Bash will be held in:
The Wellington Suite in the Grange Wellington Hotel
71 Vincent Square, Westminster, London SW1P 2PA
It’s just a stone’s throw from Victoria Station, which should make it nice and easy to find. There’s two sneak peek photos below.
Because the event keeps growing, we need to charge for the event, so this year, tickets for the event will be £10 and will go on sale on the 1st February PUT THE DATE IN YOUR DIARY NOW.
Looks great! Sounds great fun. This year might be the one…
Fingers crossed – would love to meet you 🙂
Yay yay yay!!!
I know right!
Too excited but you know me!!!
The location looks amazing, Sacha! I wanted to reblog but cannot find the button!
On a different note…. bad news: I cannot join you next year. My nephew has his confirmation in Vienna on the same weekend. I am also his god-mother and want to be there, of course. I am so sorry ☹️ But I hope there is another Bash in 2018!
The reblog button is hiding now I am self hosted! it’s under a crown on the side bar – very annoying. SIGH. I am so gutted you can’t come, but roll on 2018.
That is really annoying when the normal things don’t work anymore. I will check again regarding the reblog, Sacha! It is defenitely on my agenda for 2018! But I hope there will open up a window before!
I will just send you all blow kisses from Africa. Actually going to be in London in March.
Ahh such a shame, maybe in 2018? 🙂
Couldn’t reblog Sacha (no button), but have posted everywhere else I could 😀
someone else just said that, *scratches head* hmmmm…. I will investigate with my provider…. Thanks for the nudge and lovely shares
If you made it a Page instead of a Post, that would omit the reblog button Sacha.
If you are Self Hosted – you need the SUMOME Plugin 😀
I’m self hosted – just installed sumo me, but it seems to have only enabled social media sharing rather than reblogs? GAH, why is self hosted so hard!
When the Crown Icon is opened, folks can type Word and the WordPress icon comes up to select, then press Send.
A choice of images appears, including any included in your post.
I usually save to Draft, then I can extract whatever I need from your original post and paste it into the draft post.
I also ensure the link is highlighted and the little hyperlink box is ticked so the post will open in another tab or window (saves me losing readers from my blog).
Then I can schedule the equivalent of a reblog 😀
You’re a star – I think I’ve done it now…. or I hope I have anyway
You have Sacha – That’s how I was able to reblog your post today ??❤
Wait, what? You did???? Oh thank you. For some reason I didn’t get a notification ?? this self hosted thing is harder than I hoped. SIGHHHHHHHHH.
I’d have thought you’d have a pingback Sacha ?
Nope… that’s going to be a real bore not knowing when people share things. Ugh,
?
Not being able to reblog? – Sorry lost on this because it’s a while ago you commented.
Apparently, if you add sumo me and then use the crown it does the job nicely for reblogging.
ha! I am always terrified of meddling but I like to too!
Whoop! Putting the date in my diary.
Woo hop 🙂
Can’t wait now!
Really looking forward to it – so enjoyed last year’s.
I hope to spend more than 4 minutes with everyone this year!
Looks great Sacha.. I am definitely in.. ready with my tenner in February. hugs xx
I can’t wait to meet you Sally ?
Gorgeous! ?
And one day you’ll be there too ?
And one day you’ll be there too ??
One day you’ll be there too ?
Whooooooooooohooooooooooooo! ?
Bum, I never sent you the extra pics and vids! Bit late but they’re int ehdropbox now….
Lol, we can use em for other promo later on ?
Oh yes! Thanks for the early warning. Then I could meet a whole smorgasbord of bloggers, I hope!
haha, I hope so, I reckon this year there will be 100 people!!! 😀 😀 SO EXCITED
I think I emailed you this, but will they have some special rates for guests to stay?
At the minute no. But I have mentioned this to the committee will raise it again 🙂
Thanks, because I wouldn’t know where to begin looking. 🙂
I’ve got Hugh on it 😀
Great! 🙂
Yay! I’m in. Just signed up for BB emails and your newsletter, Sacha. I’m so looking forward to meeting everyone 🙂
YAY, thanks Tina, I can’t wait to meet you 😀
Dreamy! I was watching a show about ancient cuneiform which featured a good part of the British Museum – and was thinking a return visit is definitely needed. Checking on things
In any case Cooool!
hehe, you should so try to come if you can, and I know we’ve talked about the British museum before, but I bloody love that place.
I AM going to join in the fun one year. This I vow 🙂
I know that in my bones ?
OMG, is there a chance you can’t?? You better be there! <3 <3
Thank god, it wouldn’t be right without you there.
You’re most welcome – I had like 9 comments from you in spam. GRR.
I am so looking forward to this years bash, determined not to be shy this year and meet more people… coming on my own this time!!

Can’t wait to chat to you again 🙂
Sacha I have cut and pasted your post as I can’t reblogg!! I hope that is okay!
Hi willow sure – if you link back that’s fine – you should be able to click the crown and find a reblog
I did link back will look again 🙂
No worries – I don’t have my laptop as at my friends house, so can’t check 🙁
Thanks Sacha all reblogged now! I learn something new everyday !!
aww, and thank you so much for sharing 😀
My pleasure!
Sounds fabulous. Sigh. 🙂
I wish you could come too 🙁
*sigh*
If I happen to win a lottery between now and then – I’ll be there!
You’re on. Don’t forget to buy your lotto tickets! :p
Lovely! Will be there, again. Looking forward to it.
Fab, looking forward to seeing you there, did you know you bought a competition entry, rather than a venue ticket entry? Just want to make sure you knew?
Hi Sacha. Yes I need to buy the venue ticket next. I wanted to get the blog entry done. Just being published as we speak.
😀
Can you point me to the link to buy a venue ticket?
Sure can. Sorry – that is a good point – I ought to link up on all the other posts and pages. Thank you for the reminder 😀 it’s here: https://sachablack.co.uk/2017/02/01/bloggers-bash-tickets-on-sale-now/
This sounds so exciting. Too bad I’m from the Philippines. You guys have fun! <3
Ahh that’s a shame, maybe another year 😀
Hope it goes well, I’m in sunny yorkshire, but would love to make a show up for next year as parents live down south,
I hope it goes well and have just voted for the best inspirational blog as have loved reading Miriams posts – Out and About – Loving Life On and Off the Tracks
Thanks so much for voting, I hope you make it down next year.
No worries Sacha wishing Miriam lots of good luck for her nomination for the inspirational website! Wonderful to hear.
