Welcome to the world's first Ardacon: SBG International, a fan run convention to celebrate the Hobbit Hobby and Games Workshop's Hobbit Strategy Battle Game!

The convention will host three unique tournaments, from the fun and unpredictable Chaos in Arda on the Friday evening, then onto the Grand Tournament spanning Saturday and Sunday with 100 Great British Hobbit League points up for grab and including the first World Team Championship inclusive scoring as we look for our first Hobbit SBG World Champions! Then to finish off, a run chaser Ardacon Doubles event into the Sunday evening.

Held in a central Manchester hotel, this convention will aim to bring together all areas of the game AND hobby and be an opportunity for all to truly celebrate the growing strength of our community and be a host to many demonstration games, workshops, seminars and stalls.

With teams confirmed from the USA, Canada, Ireland, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Poland, and more, with some of those teams comprising of well known supporters of SBG on youtube and other mediums, this is set to be a truly electric event for anyone with a love and a passion for this game and it's models.

We fully expect this gathering to be the largest Hobbit SBG event ever held, with only 120 places up for grab, there isn't a moment to lose.

Discounts have been arranged so players can stay at the 4* City Centre Hotel at a huge discount *Note, this allocation is limited.* With the hotel being in central Manchester and close to Piccadilly Train Station, this is a perfect location for those travelling from abroad or from far, with great links to Manchester Airport and only a two hour train journey from London, as well as car parking for those driving to the event (contact the hotel for further details.)

Manchester is a diverse and colourful city with lots to do and see, as well as being located centrally in the UK with excellent transport links - so feel free to bring families, wives, girlfriends, husbands, boyfriends... whoever! There will be lots for them to do.

Hot Gates Gaming looks forward to hosting you all for a weekend of fan-based Middle-Earth magic!
