So if we're going for the picnic type of party, how do we organise the food?

I have gathered a list of all (or at least most) the food places around Canada Square and the local area - and yep, there is a Waitrose. Good shop, maybe a little more expensive than some, I used it a lot back home (until they moved) because they had a good vegetarian chilled section.

As long as they have something other than egg or cheese based foods I'll be happy. The only people I know of that do really good veggie food is Cranks, but then you'd expect them to do great stuff.

Can't we do both? We could go to the opening ceremony and then watch the end of the concert.

I can't find a link, so I'll post what I got in the email.

Ian McDiarmid at Celebration Europe!
Tony Award-winning actor Ian McDiarmid, whose iconic portrayal of Senator Palpatine and the Emperor in the Star Wars Saga raised suave villainy to a new level, will make a rare public appearance at Star Wars Celebration Europe on Friday, July 13 to help commemorate the Saga's 30th anniversary.
McDiarmid will be a special guest of Lucasfilm Ltd. and event organiser Cards Inc. during the Opening Ceremonies at ExCeL London. The Opening Ceremonies will be hosted by Steve Sansweet, head of fan relations for Lucasfilm Ltd., and will include a special one-time-only screening of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope.
Admission to the Opening Ceremonies, scheduled for 6:30 pm on the grounds just west of the ExCeL Center, is included in the cost of a three-day or a Friday pass to Star Wars Celebration Europe, the biggest Star Wars party Europe has ever seen, and the first official Star Wars event to be held outside of the U.S.
That's pretty much it.
I'm hoping I can post that, it's not hyperspace or fan club only stuff.

Friday, July 13
Outdoor Stage, Royal Victoria Square (Directly west of ExCeL Center)
18:30 – 19:00 Celebration Europe Opening Ceremonies. Host Steve Sansweet kicks off the
Celebration of 30 years of Star Wars, and introduces special guests, including Ian McDiarmid, the distinguished actor who portrayed Palpatine in the Star Wars Saga.
19:00 – 21:30 A New Hope Screening. Benefiting Medicinema, the charitable organization that brings theater-quality movie experiences to hospitals, the screening of the first movie of the Star Wars Saga is set to take place on the Royal Victoria Square. Bring a picnic, or purchase food and beverages to benefit Medicinema, while you enjoy an outdoor, informal evening with other Star Wars fans!
21:30 onward Opening Night Mixer at Fox Pubs. Join fellow Star Wars fans for fun and maybe a few drinks at the Fox Pubs, right next to the ExCeL center.
http://www.starwars.com/community/event/celebration/f20070706/index.html
So the opening ceremony is only 30 mins (6:30-7pm) - we can go to that, head down to Canary Wharf and possibly (and that's a huge possibly) get there for just after 7:30pm and get to listen to some cool music. Only problem is when we get food.
And after the concert, head back to ExCel for the Opening Night Mixer at the Fox Pubs - sound like a plan?
What I DO recommend is everyone get their DLR ticket BEFORE the opening ceremony and before we head out to Canary Wharf. That way we can go straight to DLR and not have a queue of people rushing to get DLR tickets from the machines. I'll have already got mine from going to get Obi Anne in the morning.

No underground out there in the sticks Moose. Well, if there's a bright center to London, you're on the station that it's (almost) farthest from.
But, when I say get a ticket for DLR, that is the one we keep talking about - one day travelcard (zones 1-4) which can be used on underground and DLR. At least where we'll be heading  And the DLR feels a little like the railway in Spiderman 2 where Spidey and Dr Oc fight, so rather than being underground, you are a little above it! Variety in travelling!

As long as the travel card covers both then it's ok.
