<p>On Wednesday 29th May lottery places will be allocated. The lottery will be
closed from this point onwards.</p>

<p>You can only win places for one workshop. You will get sent a code for this,
which you will be asked for by the workshop stewards to gain entrance to your
allocated workshop, or you can provide your name. You can share your code(s)
with others, but only one person will be admitted per code.</p>

<p>Any other workshop lotteries you entered will appear as 'cancelled' on the

stewards. They will also be able to confirm your place by name if necessary.
You can pass your code onto someone else, but only one person will be
