- Valleycon 2023; held over weekend of 22nd-23rd April, at Expressions Theatre, Upper Hutt. New Zealand.
The Hutt Miniatures Wargames Club ( huttclub.wordpress.com/ ), kindly invited me along as "Kapiti Hobbies TV" to show what was going on at their annual wargames event.
I managed to get there mid afternoon on the first day (Saturday).
There were the following games being played:
Warhammer 40K
Warhammer Age of Sigmar
Bolt Action and
Flames of War
SAGA
Star Wars Legion (One day event on Sunday)
I saw one game of Infinity which I think may have been a demo game?
There was also a large demo game of Black Powder featuring the battle of Waterloo, though sadly again I had arrived too late to catch it in all its glory.
I caught many games in action and thanks to all the players who paused to share a few moments with us! Sadly I timed it such that many of the AoS games were wrapping up between games. So I didn't get the best view of those games and armies.
There were also a large number of DBM players, but this years event had brought in such a large number of players (about 140 I believe) that the DBM historical players were actually playing at another location. Sadly I didn't get the chance to visit that site.
The Hutt club do a great job of organizing and hosting these events and I would strongly encourage anyone to attend if they can fit it into their gaming itinerary for the year!
The location is good, with a spacious hall, onsite catering and plenty of parking nearby.
My thanks to the guys at the Hutt: Simon, Chris, Tom, Chris, Scott, Alex and Alan and any others I've forgot to mention!
No doubt we'll see you there next year!

Thanks for this, those are some great tables!
Yes always a pleasure to see decent terrain at events like this :)
Late to comment but I always enjoy these kinds of videos, so thanks for uploading.
Keep up the good work!
Thank you for your kind reply
Great to see you again at Valleycon Scott.
Thanks John, Glad you had a fun weekend!
A bunch of familiar faces there, lol
I cant imagine who youre talking about ;)
Star Wars legion did a one-day event on the Sunday and the Ancients were doing their comp at the usual school hall due to lack of space.
Ah I didnt know Stars Wars was on thanks for pointing that out. Might have to find a bigger hall for next year if it keeps on growing like this! :)
I was wondering when you guys would order in some more Khorne Beserkers - thanks
We try and restock every week, it just depends whether GW NZ has them in stock when our weekly order goes in on a Thursday
