To celebrate the much-anticipated release of The Lord of the Rings Trilogy on Blu-ray, a special 3-Night Theatrical Event is being planned this June. And as we teased this week, TheOneRing.net is excited to be a part of this film series event! Starting tomorrow, we will send a private ticket sale offer to our newsletter subscribers! This means you will be able to reserve your tickets a full 5 days before the general public has a shot! Since this is a single showing of each extended edition film in theaters, it is expected these events will sell out VERY fast. Oh, and did we mention there may be a special video from Peter Jackson before the screenings?? Join our newsletter today and check your email tomorrow for this exclusive offer. And of course, stay tuned in coming weeks for even more details and information about this event! [Join the Newsletter] [Blu-ray Extended LOTR]

Put your city in the subject line to help us sort quickly and feel free to remind us inside the email of your efforts and any details you see fit. Thanks!

On any given day, there could be many Tolkien related events taking place somewhere on this great big planet of ours. Sometimes we get to post about those events on our homepage, sometimes we don’t. To make things a bit easier for Ringers worldwide to keep track of upcoming (and past) events, we are announcing TheOneRing.net Event Calendar! This new calendar, maintained using Google Calendar, not only allows you to quickly and easily look through upcoming events, it allows you to subscribe and even add events to your own personal calendar. That way you can set up you own reminders and alerts ’til your hearts content! And best yet, if you have an event coming up, we do take submissions to be included on the calendar. Our goal is to make this the most comprehensive calendar for Tolkien fans worldwide, and with your help, we hope to reach that goal! Follow the link to view the upcoming events.

The organisers of the annual Middle-earth Weekend at Sarehole Mill, Hall Green, in Birmingham, would like to invite you to take part in our photographic competition. Submit to us your photos of a tree or trees, taken throughout the year, that are sympathetic to Tolkien’s own love of trees and his stories. The aim is to create a calendar for 2012 that can be bought online. We invite you to submit photographs, taken at any time of year, of favourite, unusual, natural, beautiful and characterful trees, leaves or branches. Participation is free of charge. Entries must be original, natural and unmodified apart from minor cropping or resizing. They do not need to have been photographed recently but we would like details of where and the date when the photograph was taken.
The 12 chosen photographs will have the distinction and recognition of being included in this unusual and distinctive calendar with prizes awarded to the best two.
The Competition runs from now until the end of April when the winners will be chosen and their photographs prepared for display during The Middle-earth Weekend on Saturday and Sunday 21st and 22nd May and subsequently incorporated into the design of the calendar. Details of the competition and its rules can be found on our website: www.middleearthweekend.org.uk.
