Norwich Games Convention Saturday 22nd of August 2026
@ Norfolk Showground, Norwich Join us for the fourth, and biggest, year at Norwich Games Convention!

This year we have more exhibitors than ever in the trade hall... where you can find board game demos, publishers, and a wide variety of local artists and game designers. There's a large free-play area with tables for you to play your new board games (or play some from our ever growing library!), which will be open until 11pm! Let's not forget the bring and buy area, which is going to be the biggest we've ever had! And once again we'll be joined by the fabulous Orctioneer! If you're a fan of RPG's, we have lots of systems being run all day by top notch Games Masters. There'll be food and drink available throughout the day, and the bar is open, so you can grab a game and a drink, and relax! Tickets for the whole event are £10 on the door (Discounted pre-sale tickets are available at norwichgames.uk from May 22nd - August 21st)

Tickets for specific events will be found online at norwichgames.uk.

Hi, all!

Just a quick heads-up that we're also book nerds, and I've recently gotten a bee in my bonnet about some of the classic pulps. So now you can get top-quality books from some classic authors like Robert E. Howard and Otis Adelbert Kline, and all proceeds go to the convention.

Check out dangerdare.com for what's currently in print and upcoming.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and made yesterday such a great success!

We hope you all had as much fun as we did. There was a great buzz all day, and that's down to all of you ✨We'll get out some photos from the day very soon!

Today we are working on clearing out the Showground. We may take a few weeks to recover... but then it will be on for 2027, and our 5th year! 😮

We're working with local board game group NoBoG to make it easier to find people to game with in the open play area!

In addition to the familiar 'join-us' flag system, we've got the following this year:

1) We've arranged a space within the open gaming area, where you can gather if you want to meet up with others to game... there may even be a sofa...🛋️

You can naturally agree to play a game with others, but the NoBoG crew will also invite anyone there to join them for games.

2) If you see anyone with a ‘NoBoG’ logo in the gaming area, feel free to ask them about playing a game. Some of the crew will have their own, but there’s also an NGC library to choose from.

The NoBoG crew are a very friendly lot with lots of board game experience, and they can't wait to introduce you to all their favourites!

New holiday just dropped! 😄

It's the day before convention day... which for us means we're running around and making sure everything is perfect for when we see you all tomorrow!

We're so excited for tomorrow that we decided it should be designated our newest holiday. Unfortunately, we don't have the power to give everyone the day off... but you should know that we 100% would if we could 😉

See you tomorrow for an awesome day ✨
