"Want to visit one of the Partizans next year" Topic

Hi all Partizan-Veterans,

we want to travel to one of the Partizan-Conventions in 2025.

Is there a difference between the two – we are mostly interested in historic games?

How large is the dealer's area compared to other conventions in the UK?

Is there also a bring&buy?

No real difference between the two shows. Partizan is mainly historical.

Partizan is one of the bigger shows, but there will always be dealers you want who are not there. It is good for 25/28mm, significantly less good for 15mm, for 5/6mm there is usually only Baccus and not any of the 1/300 tank manufacturers.

Sadly they have updated the web site partizan.org.uk/, so you can't download the October 2024 floor plan which would give you a good idea of what the show was like, if you contact them they might send you a copy.

There hasn't been a bring and buy for many years.

Thx for the swift infos Mr. Armatys.

Very sad that they have no bring&buy.

We visited the Warfare (Farnborough) this month which had a pretty nice bring&buy and a huge dealer space.

Do you have any opinion on which show has the largest bring&buy?

I regret that I get to very few shows nowadays – Partizan is my local "big" show.

Hammerhead which is at the same location has pretty much the same traders as well as a strong tabletop sale instead of the B&B, what you'd maybe call a flea market sale? All Hammerhead games are participation though so you don't get the top end demo games there.

Thx Volleyfire
