So we kicked off the year with our first event of 2025 at What's Your Game? L.A.R.P Kit fair at the historic location Gloucester Prison. Gloucester Prison in a 4 acre site which opened in 1791 and closed in 2013 and is now host to several events throughout the year. It was definitely an experience from first driving in the old gate to setting up alongside the cell doors in this iconic building.
We managed to get set up on the Friday daytime and went back to the hotel Friday evening to rest up ready for the weekend.
Customers started to arrive at the event bang on 10am when the doors opened and it was lovely to see the event so busy throughout the day. It was a huge site to explore and so many stalls to see. So many talented people were exhibiting their work, from foam props, leather armour costumes, and mead stalls to name a few, all of which were handcrafted throughout the year to bring to these events.
Even though the venue was a bit chilly as we are in February and the old building doesn't have any heating, the people we met were warm and friendly especially our trader neighbours "Knicknackatorium" who you should go check out online and at events in the future.
Both event days were brilliant, we got to meet some amazing people and managed to sell a few wares to customers, and do a bit of networking with other events. We will definitely be looking in to returning to this event in the future, but maybe with a few more blankets to keep warm
Thank you to all the folk who made a purchase over the weekend, it brings is great joy to see people like our work, especially at a new event.
Until next time
