Upcoming Warhammer World Events
There’s lots to look forward to at the home of the hobby, as Warhammer World hosts ten competitive events across the tail end of May and June alone.
The upcoming Warhammer 40,000 Grand Tournament even offers the winner the opportunity to earn a Golden Ticket, which will secure your place at the Grand Narrative and World Championships of Warhammer.
Relieve the epic narrative of the Twin-Tailed Crusade at this weekend-long narrative event told through matched play games. You can either play as the forces aligned to Sigmar and help lay the foundations for a new fortress settlement, or take command of those who would repel these invaders in the name of the other deities of the Mortal Realms. This event takes place over the weekend of the 11th and 12th of May.
Earn a Golden Ticket at the Warhammer 40,000 Grand Tournament amid hot competition. This matched play event comprises six games across two days, and you’ll test your mettle against a competitive field of brilliant generals and compete for a podium place, while angling for those coveted painting and sportsmanship awards. This event takes place over the weekend of the 8th and 9th of June.
Dungeon Bowl: Rumble in the Dungeon kicks off three miniature sporting events at Warhammer World this summer. You’ll descend into the perilous dungeons beneath the Colleges of Magic to block, dodge, and score your way to victory across three games. You can also pick up awards for favourite opponent and best panted. This event takes place on the 14th of June.
Run the gauntlet on the gridiron at the Blood Bowl Quick Snap tournament, with three full-fat games of Blood Bowl. You’ll need to brush up on your skills and hire the best roster to come out on top. As well as the podium places, there are glittering prizes and Judge’s Choice for best painted. This event takes place on the 15th of June.
Play four fast-and-furious games of Blood Bowl at this single-day Blitzing Sunday Sevens event. You know the deal by now – helmet on, brass knuckles in, and get blitzing in this streamlined version of Blood Bowl. You will also compete for the Favourite Player and Best Painted awards. This event takes place on the 16th of June.
Muster a small army and take part in a three-game Warhammer: The Horus Heresy tournament in a single day. This compact weekday event is the perfect way to spend time with like-minded fans of the Age of Darkness setting, whether you’re a brand-new player or a veteran of this galactic civil war. This event takes place on the 20th of June.
Prep your best Kill Team and deploy to the varied environs of Bheta-Decima in this narrative Spec Ops campaign, taking place across five games over two days. You can also take part in the Bugman’s Kill Team Quiz on Saturday night, and win awards for painting and being a good sport. This event takes place over the weekend of the 22nd and 23rd of June.
Younger gamers can look forward to a specially crafted Warhammer 40,000 event that takes place across three games. Players will compete for the top spot, and have their armies judged in a best-painted competition. Parents and guardians also get a chance to enter a painting competition, and if they’ve not painted a miniature before, they can participate in the My First Model competition! This event takes place on the 26th of June.
The same format as Legion Recruits, Chamber Initiates is aimed at younger players in the fantastical setting of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. They’ll clash across three games to be crowned winner and compete to win painting awards, too. This event takes place on the 30th of June.
The Gnarlwood hungers for fresh meat – you can help sate its appetite at this event, where you’ll play four Matched Play games across custom battleplans over one day to determine who is the most skilful and ruthless Warcry player in the Ravening Ruin. Awards for favourite player and best painted are also up for grabs. This event takes place on the 30th of June.
All of these Warhammer World events go on sale on the 4th of March, and you can find more details on our Eventbrite page right here.
