Warhammer Fest 2014 Programme Guide by Martin Stanley

OFFICIAL PROGRAMME Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th October 2014

Welcome

to the inaugural Warhammer Fest here at the Ricoh Arena, the first event of its kind anywhere in the world!

If there’s one thing we’ve learnt over the years, it’s that everyone who collects Games Workshop Miniatures has a different reason for doing so, from collecting their favourite armies, to painting, playing or a combination of all three. We were left with the question of how to create an event that several thousand people could attend and each have an experience unique to them. The answer is Warhammer Fest. We have three floors and six rooms full of things to do and see, from picking up the latest miniatures and books, to hearing about future releases, taking part in demonstrations and tutorials, playing games, and more. You can meet and talk to the creators of our books, miniatures and artwork, whether you simply want to chat with them or see them demonstrate their skills. Don’t panic: where possible we have repeated these activities throughout the day allowing you to tailor your event as much as possible. So, have a look at everything we’ve got planned, and then set about doing as much or as little as you like. With the dazzling array of things on offer, we’re sure you’re in for an exciting, enthralling, fun-filled day. So, all that’s left is for us to say thank you for coming, and enjoy!
