The 2025 Lincombe Barn Wargames Society (a.k.a Bristol Wargames Society) Tabletop sale

 Attention all wargamers in the Bristol area, or even further afield!

The annual LBWS Tabletop Sale is almost upon us.

The TTS will be on Sunday May 18th at Lincombe Barn, the usual venue, address below. Doors are open to the public from 9:30 for Early Birds (entry £5) and 10:00 (£3 adults, £1.50 juniors, under 12s free). The TTS will end at around 12:30.

The address is Lincombe Barn, Overndale Road, Downend, Bristol BS16 2RW.

There is a certain amount of car parking available and public transport runs to the venue, see THIS LINK.

Hot and cold refreshments and snacks will be available.

The sale is already sold out for private traders but that means that there will be lots of goodies on sale to the public. There is always a wide variety of things on sale, from wargames figures, vehicles, books etc to boardgames and sets of rules.

So, if you are looking for that special something, be it a few extra barbarians, Romans, medieval knights, WW2 tanks, fantasy figures or whatever, or maybe even a complete army come along as see what the sellers have on offer.

The annual Lincombe Barn Wargames Society Tabletop Sale is approaching.

Yes, if you live in or around Bristol (or even further away) it is time to come along to our Tabletop Sale and spend money on more stuff you didn't know you needed until you saw it.

Where and when is it, you ask? 

The TTS will be on Sunday 12th May at the usual location, the Downend Folk House. The address is;

                Lincombe Barn, Overndale Road, Downend, BS16 2RW

Doors open for customers at 10:00. Entry is £3 for adults, £1.50 for under 18s and free for under 13s.

Those of you with money to burn and a desire to grab all the best stuff, you can buy an early bird ticket for £5 which lets you in at 09:30.

We have free parking and hot and cold refreshments will be available.

This year, we have sold out the entire Barn and have the biggest sale since before Covid and the lockdowns, so there will be plenty to browse and buy.

                            Please note - there is no Bring and Buy table.

Covid-19 and the 2020 Lincombe Barn Tabletop Sale

As some people already know, the LBWS has an annual tabletop sale in May. As the sale organiser, I have already been preparing for this year, but as you can all imagine, events have overtaken us.

Therefore, the TTS planned for May 17th this year has been cancelled because of the risks to all our health from the Covid-19 pandemic.

I know that this is hardly an unexpected outcome, as pretty much all public wargaming activity is coming to a halt, but it is nevertheless a sad situation.

I am in the process of sorting out refunds for people who have already booked tables.

As no one knows how long this pandemic is likely to persist, it isn't really possible to think about rescheduling the TTS for a later date.

Anyway, I hope that you are all keeping well and avoiding infection by taking sensible precautions.

Good luck everyone.
