Yeah, they;re always late with the officoal announcement, probably waiting to confirm details of attractions, guests etc, etc. before they put up details on here.

The Visitlondon website always has it much earlier, and this year Alistair Kirkwood (head honcho of NFLUK) gave the Regent Street info even earlier, via a blog interview in early July.

It'll start to filter through the ether slowly....

I really hope they do decide to do some parties for the Rams / Giants game. It's going to be my first time down London for an NFL game and I want to make the most of it.

Looks like it will be unlikely that Trafalgar Square would be used again.

Alistair: And a lot of fans I know go to things like the Green Man and do their own thing, or they meet up in Central London and increasingly have their own kind of traditions as to how they go about doing it. Our research suggests that people go to games now on average 50 minutes later then they did six years ago, so people’s kind of habits are changing. And once we get that kind of stuff in then that kind of starts changing our way of thinking. So maybe we need to, you know, are people getting complacent or maybe they don’t like to put a value on this? Some people will say, “Okay, well, I’ve seen that. I don’t need to see it again.” One of the reasons why we moved away from Trafalgar Square, which was something that I really like personally, was our research was saying that people were saying, “Yeah, it’s the same thing year in, year out,” and ultimately there’s not really much more in that space that you could do that’s different.

Just to be clear, this is not an NFLUK organised event.

Events are also being put on at both of the other IS games by the same organiser (who has been doing them for a few years now).
