Traders
We have had a fantastic response from Traders for our next show!
We always try and strike a balance so that there is plenty of choice in both scale and period without too much overlap.
Full list of Traders and their contact details will be published as it is finalised, and we will try to update it regularly.

Games
A lot of people spend a great deal of effort to bring Demonstration and Participation games to our shows. Even before we had announced the 2025 show, we were being promised all sorts of interesting games for the next show, and we will post the details in this section as they are finalised.
Because of changes at the venue, we have slightly less space for display games, so priority will be given to Participation Games over Demonstration Games.

Bring and Buy
At every show for the last forty-plus years we have had a very successful Bring and Buy stall. And this year will be no exception. For a small charge (10% of sale value) you can re-home all those old, unused, unwanted figures and models. Remember, one mans junk is another mans treasure! Just think how much money is sat in your hobby room. Just think how much more stuff you can buy!
We have provided a downloadable B&B form (follow the link) so you can save time by preparing all your items before you leave home. This will save lots of time booking in. Believe me, it will be busy!
Please note, following the lead of other local shows, each B&B sheet booked in at the show will incur a 50 pence charge. This will help to cover the costs of the tables used and we hope it will reduce the quantity and improve the quality of the items on offer, in turn reducing the time required for both booking in and booking out. Additionally, we will NOT be able to accept card payments, so please bring cash!
We will be accepting booking-in from 8.30 on Saturday morning if you are in a tournament or putting on a game, 9.30 for other visitors. The stall opens for selling at 10.30. This is to give the hard working guys on the stall a chance to book everything in properly.
Some advice on selling:
- Price your items appropriately - almost everything sells at the right price!
- Display your items clearly - don't stuff them in a cardboard box and hope for the best - if it can be seen, it may well be bought!
- Dust your old figures! They'll look a look more attractive to a potential buyer.
- Remember, the guys working the stall are volunteers, not salespeople. It's up to you to prepare your stuff to sell, we can only display it.
