After lengthy and heartfelt consideration, Chuck and I have made the decision that 2026 will be the last year of operation for BV Traders, which includes representing Iron Winds Metals. The decision to retire was not made lightly, and we would like to make the transition as smooth as possible.

BV Traders

Our 2026 show season is listed below:

Shows as BV Traders:

Williamsburg Muster (Feb 20-22)
Cincy Con (Feb 27-Mar 1)
Barrage (Sept 18-19)

Shows representing IWM:

AdeptiCon (Mar 24-29)
Richmond Open (May 1-3)
Historicon (July 15-19)
Gen Con (July 30 – Aug 2)

The last day for online orders to be placed will be November 25, 2026.

Finally, as we prepare to cease operations, we will be selling all of the booth fixtures (racks, tables gridwall, gridwall accessories) and the Homesteader trailer. If interested, please email us at BVTraders@aol.com.

Chuck and I would like to express our appreciation to IWM for their trust and support over the years.

Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey.
