The Store Birthday

Join us on Saturday 28^th of February for our 17^th Birthday celebrations, and a day packed with activities!

As it’s our birthday, we’ll of course have cake and decorations. But as we’re Warhammer World we’ll also have hobby Demo Pods, the treacherous Caverns of Doom, a painting challenge, the return of Army of the Month… read on for all of our planned celebratory shenanigans!

Army of the Month

We invite you to bring your army, share it in a display, and then following a vote from fellow hobbyists, one army will go on show here at Warhammer World for a month. Come and take part, or just come to admire the miniatures.

The Caverns of Doom

The bravest warriors seek treasure … find they’ve been tricked, and must fight to entertain the Caverns of Doom’s evil overlord! Bring your chosen hero and join in battles for Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer taking place through the day.

Birthday Exclusives

We’ll have a limited number of special art prints, only available in stores on their birthdays. Also, Bugman’s has a surprise for you… They’ve prepared one of their special burgers in honour of our birthday!
