A host of scary monsters and super creeps have descended on Liverpool to revel in all things David Bowie for an annual convention celebrating the singer's life and works.
The event, which returned to the city for its third edition after taking place in New York in 2023, will welcome hundreds to St George's Hall across its three days.
Guest appearances include Woody Woodmansey, the last surviving member of the singer's Spider From Mars backing band; Ken Scott, the producer of the 1971 smash hit Life on Mars?; and Bowie's friends and collaborators Dana Gillespie and Ava Cherry.
Organisers said it was a chance for fans to use "the Bowie Swap Shop" and "hear the gasps as friends and ex-lovers give their fly on the wall accounts of key moments".
