UK Games Expo

On June 2, the UK Games Expo (UKGE) starts in Birmingham and lasts until June 4. UKGE is the largest Tabletop Games Convention in the UK – where all aspects of the tabletop gaming hobby are represented under one roof. There are two huge halls full of exhibitors who want to show you their games. You can see them, you can try them out, and if you like them you can buy them.

There will be two huge halls (halls of the NEC and the Hilton Hotel) full of exhibitors and the chance to try and buy a lot of games. Take the opportunity to test the games extensively and nearly all night long! UKGE also have a huge library of games to borrow and play on hundreds of tables of open gaming – open for anyone to play anything in.

Our partner Gen42 and Jolly Thinkers will be there on all three days with a booth (2-516). Besides their own games, they will also present our games, like Tails on Fire, Hungry Monkey, Fish & Katz, Spicy, Sweet & Spicy.

Here you can find the Expo Map and here you can find more information about the UKGE.
