Hello,
Can anyone point me in the direction of a list of UK Trade Shows / Game Fairs where it may be possible to sell some of my games.
I am looking at selling to either publisher or public.
Of greater use to me would be details of events in Scotland and feedback from people on how good these events are.
Thanks.
There aren't really.
We've got the UK Toy Fair, which is at the end of January IIRC, but that's about it for trade shows.
There are plenty of game cons but nothing huge (even the UK GenCon isn't particulaly spectacular compared to the US) but they're mostly full of people who'd probably buy your game - but not in bulk or for publishing!
Basically, there aren't really any UK publishers (JKLM might qualify) anyway...

Have I posted to the wrong part of the forum or is there no such thing as UK trade shows or game fairs?
