RuneBrush Posted July 26, 2022 Author Share Posted July 26, 2022 My reaction (which I'm giving even if you don't want it 😉) Ticket only and limited tickets doesn't surprise me at all. WHW isn't the biggest of venues and with Covid still an issue (Nottingham has been a bit of a hotspot), limiting the number of people on site is equally good and bad. A four day event genuinely has surprised me, I'm intrigued what extra content we're likely to get on those days. My biggest gripe is that for anyone who needs time off work or hotels (or flights), this isn't as much notice as we could have had. I'm curious as to what tickets are a) going to cost and b) what will be available and c) how many. We already know there will be at least a Golden Demon and Hobby Pass tickets on sale - will there be a "Entry Only" ticket because quite a lot of painters will just want to drop their model off and vanish until the presentation (though I personally think that unlikely). I'm looking forward to them fleshing out what we're likely to expect over the 4 days! Now I need to try and actually get a ticket... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted July 27, 2022 Author Share Posted July 27, 2022 A response on Twitter and a bit of further clicking the weekend ticket price is £15. That gives you both the option to enter miniatures into the competition and provides access to WHW over the Saturday and Sunday. The Hobby Pass tickets are £30 per day for the weekend - from the looks of it that gives you access to WHW on the respective day, plus access to the paints, stations, bits piles & a miniature.

Baron Klatz Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I can’t wait to see the entries and winners. 2020 and 2021’s diorama game was intense! Also maybe we can petition GW to add this award for us painting challenged but earnest hobbyists? 😅 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverchosen Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 @Baron Klatz If they had that category I swear it would have my favourite paint jobs... and my own works! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted August 2, 2022 Author Share Posted August 2, 2022 Well the first batch of tickets went up yesterday and sold out within seconds... Another batch going up on the 8th from the seem of things. Real mixture of views on the limited nature of it, though not that surprising in truth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
