THE JOY OF SIX

THE WORLD'S BIGGEST SMALL SCALE WARGAMES SHOW

The Joy of Six is an annual wargames show devoted to 6mm wargaming. It offers a refreshing change to any small scale gamer who wants to see the best that the scale can offer, and is an eye-opening experience for those who think that 6mm scale wargames are the poor relation of the table top gaming world. 

Starting from a handful of games at the initial small show in 2013, the Joy of Six is now an established event drawing attendees from not all over the World. The show itself has a unique atmosphere; busy, enthusiastic and overwhelmingly friendly. The emphasis is participation with most of the games falling into this category. The Joy of Six also has a couple of items unique to itself in the form of the Sunday Morning Grill where the Baccus team get interrogated about all aspects of the gentle art of making toy soldiers, and the Afternoon Panel, where a group of hobby luminaries answer questions from the floor about all manner of wargame related subjects.

The show has earned a fearsome reputation for the quality of games on show, the diversity of subjects covered and the friendliness of those putting on displays, trading and attending.    This year's event will be taking place on Sunday July 13th at Sheffield Hallam University, Howard Street, Sheffield, S1 1WB.    Doors will open at 10.00 am and we will be kicking everyone out at 4.00pm.   

PLEASE NOTE: We have been asked by the university to point out that their excellent catering facilities are now cashless. All food and drink must be paid for by card. The nice thing about this is that leaves you with more cash to spend with the traders.

 Entry fee will be £6.00 for adults and £1 for children.

THE BACCUS OPEN DAY

Every year, on the day before the Joy of Six show, Baccus opens its doors and runs tours around the workshop. It's a great way of peeking behind the scenes and learning just what goes into the production of all the tiny tabletop warriors.

It's FREE to attend, but places are limited. You can book and reserve your place(s) by following this link,https://form.jotform.com/240702796600353
