The other Partizan 2019: Newark
2019-08-18 10:00 - 16:00 (Europe/London) | Newark Showground, The Showground, Lincoln Road, Newark, NG24 2NY
Welcome To Partizan
Followers of Partizan will know that we don’t like to boast about the shows, we prefer to let them sell themselves. Hence the often understated advertising. We could, for example, claim to be ‘the best show in Nottinghamshire’, or ‘probably the best one day show in the world’, but we’d rather you came along and made your own mind up. If you want to know how good the games are look through some back issues of ‘Wargames Illustrated’, ‘Battlegames’ or ‘WSS’. If you want to know what the show is like, ask one of the listed traders how they rate it compared to other shows. Or ask a wargamer who knows….
And if you’re reading this from somewhere that we English would call ‘abroad’, isn’t it time for that trip to England?
