University accommodation is available at a very reasonable cost. The Conference convenes on June 14 at 5:00 pm and continues through 3:00 pm on June 16.

DESCRIPTION:HIJACK! A new series of special screenings chosen by the friendly faces here at QFT. 
<BR>
<BR>In the first in a series of staff-picks, Hijack! presents a special screening of the fan-favourite and critically acclaimed space-western, Serenity. Written and directed by Joss Whedon (Buffy, Angel, Avengers Assemble) the film follows the renegade crew of the spaceship Serenity led by Mal Reynolds (Nathan Fillion). Agreeing to take on two mysterious refugees, the crew find themselves thrown into an epic battle with the brutal totalitarian Alliance. Bursting with Whedon's trademark wit and inventive action sequences, Serenity is a sci-fi phenomenon. 
<BR>
<BR>A must-see for fans of Whedon's TV show Firefly, Serenity is just as enjoyable as a stand-alone film.

LOCATION:Mandela Hall
DESCRIPTION:Legendary punk-rockers The Damned will perform at Belfast's Mandela Hall in May of this year to mark 35 years since the release of their debut album Damned, Damned, Damned. Released on the 18th of February 1977, the record is often referred to as the first British punk album and featured the singles 'New Rose' and 'Neat, Neat, Neat' as well as a cover of The Stooges classic 'I Feel Alright'. The record is routinely featured on lists of the greatest punk albums of all time with MOJO magazine placing it as high as #3 on their countdown in 2003. Having previously played with The Clash and Sex Pistols, 1977 also saw the band become the first U.K punk act to tour the U.S.A, release their second album Music For Pleasure and support T-Rex on their final tour. A host of line-up changes over the years have not slowed the band's momentum and, with original members Dave Vanian and Captain Sensible still on board, their last studio album was the tenth they have released. Last year saw the band play well-received shows at Fun Fun Fun Fest, Whitby Gothic Festival and even a special Halloween gig at Disneyland.
