Don't fret, it'll be fun! Obviously, it's probably going to be the hardest tournament you've ever attended, but you'll have an entire weekend to play with everyone there in friendlies, you'll 100% come away a better player

There's a nottingham event on the 25th June called Smashzilla. You can find the details here:

Also, you have Birmingham which isn't very far away. Birmingham has a Bi-weekly tournament, as well as two bigger events which run most months.

You can find the group page for Smash UK here, which is your best method for finding tournaments in the UK. There are specific regional groups as well:
