The BHGS event Britcon takes place over the weekend of 8-10th August in Manchester (UK!), and we now only have 6 table spaces for traders left to confirm.
In 2013 the event attracted around 200 walkups over the 2 days, plus 165 competition players, and we are expecting more in 2014 on both counts.
The show has run for the past 10+ years, however the key innovations in 2013 were that we made public entry free, and we introduced a "Spend 10, £5.00 GBP off" voucher for all of our registered players, which traders could collect as if they were cash and then redeem (for cash) with the organisers at the end of the show. This means that we gave back almost £600.00 GBP to our trades last year, and we know that our gamers alone spent at least £1,200.00 GBP with our traders at the show.
The current list of traders is on the BHGS website already. You can also see a list of competitions so you can get a view of what the "captive audience" of gamers are likely to be interested in!
Stand prices start at £75.00 GBP for 6', £115.00 GBP for 12' and £150.00 GBP for 18'. All traders also get free parking over the weekend.
Contact details and an enquiry form for the trade space is on our website.
Trade show entry is also open online, as is competition entry
