Australia’s biggest tabletop games convention — and we’ll be there!

We’re excited to announce that Proxy Wargaming Australia will be attending CANCON 2026 — taking place from 24-26 January 2026 at Exhibition Park in Canberra (EPIC) in Mitchell ACT. EPIC
It’s the perfect event for hobbyists, gamers, painters and miniature lovers — and we couldn’t be more thrilled to be part of it.

What CANCON brings to the table

  • One of the biggest conventions of tabletop gaming in the Southern Hemisphere — including board games, card games, role-play and of course miniatures. cgs.asn.au+1
  • A massive selection of tournaments covering wargames like Warhammer 40,000 Open, Bolt Action Open, and more. cgs.asn.au
  • Trade stands galore — including hobby-specialist stores, miniatures, paints and more. EPIC
  • Participation games, casual play, a board-game library, role-play rooms and a welcoming vibe for everyone from beginners to veteran hobbyists. cgs.asn.au

What we’ll be doing there

As your local resin-printing and miniature-supplier team, we’ll be bringing the best of Proxy Wargaming Australia to Canberra:

  • Our latest 3D-printed resin miniatures — ready to purchase, inspect and then take home.
  • Demo prints: bring your questions about scale, material, prepping, painting — we’ll be there with hands-on advice.
  • Exclusive show announcements: special pieces, upcoming drops and new ranges — you’ll get first look.
  • Meet the team: chat with us in-person, share your army, get inspiration and maybe find your next project.

Why you should visit our stand

  • ✅ Get a touch-and-feel experience with physical prints (sometimes it’s hard to judge scale online!).
  • ✅ Take advantage of event-only offers (we may have show specials just for CANCON attendees).
  • ✅ Chat hobby-tips and resin-printing questions with folks who actually run the printers & handle the packaging.
  • ✅ Be part of community: conventions are not only about buying, they’re about connecting and building the hobby.
