I don't think you can or should leave out the information about the country in which the conference takes place. "City Centre" is certainly less important than that ;-) It would probably also be wise to add information regarding the link between PyCon UK and EuroPython (ie. a note about the organizers). The reference to PyCon UK in that blog entry doesn't make any sense if you don't have that piece of information.
