The Britcon Trade Show will be returning to the now-familiar surroundings of UMIST in Manchester over the weekend of 11-12th August 2018

Reserve a ticket in advance via our website and we will let you in for free - yes, that's right, no entry cost at all! We want you to be able to spend all of your hard earned cash with our loyal traders.  You can then also visit our demo games, browse the bring and buy and see the competitors in action as well in our competitions.   

You can also just turn up on the day and get in for free too, but by registering in advance we will be able to send you up to date information on who will be there, what new products they will have on show, and whether they have any Britcon special offer at the show as well - so not only do you not have to pay to get in, the stuff you buy may even be cheaper too !
