That's certainly the rumour for the last three years or so!
Probably give it a miss this year for a number of reasons - it's rather pricey for a wargames event. Wouldn't mind paying the entry fee if they spent some of it repairing the roof so the toys and the punter didn't get rained on!Yes you get to see the big tanks, but I don't go there for the big tanks, I go there for the tiny ones!
Also, as it's Bovvy, everyone seems to have the same unique idea of running/selling tank related games. It always seems a bit of cut and paste to me, I'd like to see something different down there for once.

Hell I might even be interested in doing this one. I often can't be bothered with the travel involved at going to shows but Bovi is a hop, skip and short drive from Poole. What sort of things does this particular show entail? I'd assume Bovington, so Tank Museum and therefor Historical games but hell, it might make for a good day out.

Good mix of all sorts. Usually short on paint but decent bring and buy and good selection of model traders. As someone else said it's usually more tanky than the others.
And your ticket gets you free entrance to the tank museum for the rest of the year

Well, I managed to spend less on toy soldiers and rules than I spent on either the entrance fee or lunch. Not sure if that's a result of not...
