Salute

SALUTE 53, Europe’s largest independen wargames show, took place at the London ExCel on Saturday 11th April, hosted by the South London Warlords. Originating back in 1972 the first SALUTE was held at the Surrey tavern at the Oval Cricket Ground, just south of the Thames. It’s fair to say that it’s come a long way in the last 53 years.

Europe's largest independent wargaming event returns to ExCeL London on Saturday 11th April 2026. Organised by the South London Warlords, this one-day-only gathering brings together thousands of hobbyists, hundreds of demonstration and participation games, and traders from across the UK and internationally. This year's theme is Cavalry.

Earlier we mistakenly suggested that Crooked Dice had acquired the "entire" Otherworld Miniatures range and this requires correction! Thanks to https://dice.camp/@theresponsibleone for keeping us honest.
