I am a bit concerned at the traders list - https://falkirkwargamesclub.org.uk/Carronade_2025_Traders.php

There are several regulars missing, but hopefully the list is just not up to date.

Please note: the list of attending traders below will be regularly updated as Carronade 2024 approaches.

 I think some traders have cut back on the show's that they do and others have stopped doing show's at all.Salute might take a toll on them too.

This has happened at many shows since the Pandemic. This does not mean that we should not support the smaller/medium sized shows- if we do not, they will disappear altogether along with a part of our "hobby" culture.

Given the typo in the title, the fact that a couple of the links are dead and the mention of 2024 I'm treating the list of traders with some suspicion.
That said, I go to shows to meet the folk I only meet at shows as much as anything else so I'll be off to Falkirk on Saturday, health and the bus companies permitting!
There always seems to be some new product, new company or new trend that I've missed and suddenly come across at a show. So it's worth going for those moments too.
See you there?  :)

I'll be going, it's pretty local to me.
I like the size of the show and the mix of traders, theres always a variety of stuff to tempt money out of my pockets.
Last show I went to was hammerhead, that was just too big for me, sound(and smells) reverberated around the hall.
Had to cut my visit short! :D

Suspicion? This is normal. Check even large shows like Partizan and The Other Partizan and you will find broken links from some traders. It's not abnormal. Companies change their homepages. It is normal.

You will.
