THE

CONVENTION

ConVergence UK is a brand new gaming convention, to be held on the 6th to 8th March in Stockport, north-west England.  Featuring RPGs, miniature and board games and taking place in the amazing North-West Gaming Centre home of Element Games.

Introducing a flexible gaming slot system for RPGs, with 4-5 hour (single play) and 7-hour (extended play) sessions.  This will allow for longer scenarios and provides opportunity for a little more role-play to those who want it (and to fit the games that just are that good they demand the extra time).

Nearby accomodation, free parking, great transport links and shops, plus licensed bar and food available in the gaming hall all make this THE games con to attend in 2020
