Britcon encompasses three days of competition, social and organised play together with a two-day trade show, and in 2025 moves to Leicester, Richard III's old stomping ground (and car park of choice!) over the Friday-Sunday of the weekend of 22-24 August at The Venue@ DMU.
Events being played:
We have a huge array of historical tournaments and "organised play" wargaming events you can take part in at Britcon, including the Warlord Games Bolt Action GT, Gripping Beast's Saga Grand Melee as well as competitions for a host of rulesets in the Ancients, Dark Ages, Renaissance, Napoleonic and WW2 eras, and even some "historical-adjacent" (!) events for players of other systems. Full details of all events taking place are available on our website
Venue:
The Venue@DMU is DeMontfort University's dedicated event space in a former Spitfire factory just on the edge of Leicester City centre - see here for full details. Weekend and Daily parking for Britcon will be available at a number of nearby car parks, some of which can be booked with your gaming entry. We are not in a position to offer onsite accommodation this year, but have arranged delegate rates with a number of nearby hotels and residential units for your convenience.
Entry Fee
Entry fees include early access to the venue from lunchtime on Friday for social gaming (or just socializing!), a grab-bag lunch on each weekend day your event is running, and a £5 voucher to spend with any of the traders at the Britcon Trade show over the weekend (unless otherwise noted in the info for specific rulesets).
Terms and Conditions for entry to Britcon can be found on our website
