My ethernet cable is plugged into the back of my PC, so this means I don't need a network card...?

If your PC is already connected via ethernet, you don't need another network card.

Yeahs, All you need to know what to bring is on the i34.multiplay.co.uk website and there is a "Checklist" thing of the stuff you will need and could need :D:

Virtually any motherboards produced in the last 5 years will have an integrated network port. It is highly unlikely anyone bringing their PC to i34 will require a seperate network card.

And in the rediculously unlikely event you do need to buy one, they are on sale at reception and you can even get a yellow shirt to fit it for you. So in summary: Nothing to worry about!
