Battleground Wargames Show - 23rd Nov 2024!

Post by Leon Pendraken »

This year's Battleground will be taking place on Saturday 23rd November and this year we're moving to a NEW VENUEMiddlesbrough Sports Village (TS4 3AE) is only about 6 miles away from our previous home and will give us a bit more space to spread out, along with free parking, a cafe and nearby train and bus routes.  The show is open 10am until 3pm and entry is completely FREE!

We've got 33 Traders booked in and you can see all of these on the Battleground website here: https://www.battlegroundshow.co.uk/traders  There are a few new faces this year too, including 5 Dice Games, 7th City Collectables, Crescent Creations 3D, Mardav Miniatures, Novo Cast Miniatures, Oberon Auctions, Ontos Games, Test of Resolve and War-Drobe!

We've also got 23 Games booked in with our usual mix of Display and Participation, so head over and check those out here: https://www.battlegroundshow.co.uk/games  We're still waiting to hear from a couple more and we'll update those as soon as we receive the bookings.

We'll be joined by 4 Living History groups, with Lonestar (ACW), La Columna (SCW), East India (19th C.) and Hawtin's Military Anecdotes (WWII) all attending this year.

The Tabletop Sale is always massively popular and we're almost fully booked already.  There are only a few slots available so get in touch asap if you'd like one!  We've switched things up a little for this year, so we're now offering Morning and Afternoon slots, each being 2hrs long at a cost of £6.  Grab the opportunity to sell off any unwanted goodies you might have, dealing with the customers directly to offload some kit, and then go buy something new from the traders!

Our Historical Talks have been a great addition to the event and this year we've got 3 on offer:

10:45am: Rory Pratt - Armoured Warfare during the Spanish Civil War
12pm: John Wilson - Gallipoli 1915: A Campaign Doomed to Failure or a Campaign Almost Won?
1:15pm: Sean and Lorrain McCartney - The Percy family and the Civil Wars



All of the show info can be found on either the Battleground website here: http://www.battlegroundshow.co.uk/ or our Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/879025427526537/  If you've got any questions about the event, just let us know.

So, don't forget to tell your friends about the NEW VENUE (and the FREE ENTRY) and we'll see you there!

We should hopefully have pics of all the games on the day, no worries there.
