I think his party would attract at least a few curiosity seekers.
On the other hand, it would likely include time travellers from various future eras, perhaps hundreds, or even thousands of years apart. Future time travel would have to be heavily regulated, to keep unauthorized people from screwing up the time line. So perhaps future time travellers are expressly forbidden from having contact with other time travellers, making Hawking’s party the one place that time travellers are NOT allowed to visit.
That all depends on what time travel theory ends up being correct. There’s the one where it’s all the same timeline, and there’s the one where you spawn a new universe by traveling back and making changes.
So, a person traveling back might not be impacting the future they left.
It would be a real bitch to try and coordinate a party with multiple time travelers with the forking system. Each one might end up as the only traveler in their new universe. Unless they carpooled, I guess.
