Historicon 2026 Deadline Update
To All Historicon 2026 Attendees,
   The Historicon Senior Staff is putting the finishing touches on preparations for Historicon 2026. Â
We have a full plate of over 950 events including some tremendous games, published experts on the American War of Independence at our War College, more Hobby U classes than ever, and a full Dealer Hall of Exhibitors. This is just a quick reminder to get your selection of Events complete (a number of them are already sold out), and to pre-order your Convention Merchandise.
Historicon 2026 T-shirts
The Historicon 2026 T-shirt is available (in Loyalist red or Rebel blue) for purchase here, through TR Historical.  Shirts pre-ordered by June 21st can be picked up at the TR Historical booth at the show. TR Historical will have a limited number of shirts for sale at the Convention, or they can be ordered after June 21st for delivery to you (for a shipping fee) after the convention.
Other Historicon 2026 Merchandise Purchases
Wounded Warrior Project Charity Raffle: Raffle tickets are still available, and can be purchased as online Merchandise for $10/each. The raffle closes July 1st with the selection of winners for the following prizes:
- 1 room (2 beds) at the Marriott hotel (Wed-Sunday)
- Half the cost paid for your booked room (at the attendee rate at the Marriott hotel – Wed-Sunday)
- 15 minute early admission to Wally’s Basement for 3 winners.
HMGS Quartermaster Coupon: the Mystery Swag Bag returns, but – based on feedback – this time we focused on a Quartermaster Coupon that folks take around to each participating Exhibitor for discounts or free wargaming goodies … from figures, terrain pieces, rules, and game accessories from over 20 different Exhibitors and manufacturers. We are also going to do a drawing for those folks who visit the most Exhibitors and get their Quartermaster Coupon stamped/punched/initialed and turned into the Registration Desk by 1PM Sat (drawing is at 2 PM). We have less than 25 coupons left.
Fall In! 2025 diorama figures: we have a limited number of Fall In! 2025 diorama figures that you can pre-order for $5/each set of 2 figures (Colonial Navy and USMC figures) and pick up at the Registration Desk. We will sell any remaining figures we have at the desk for $5/set until we run out. Proceeds will benefit Wounded Warrior.
Onsite Raffle: Finally, we will have an onsite raffle for a historic lithograph, related to our American War of Independence theme, that has been donated to Historicon 2026. We will be selling the raffle tickets at the show at the Registration Desk for $5/each.
Historicon 2026 and HMGS, Inc. hopes through our donations to the Wounded Warrior Project, we can make a small positive impact to help our wounded veterans.
We have these and many more things planned for Historicon 2026, so get your Event schedule planned out, look out for a future “Know Before You Go” email on where to park, where to eat and convention hours, and get your troops and clothes packed for another Historicon. Less than a month to go!
