Games Workshop has announced plans to build a new Warhammer World just outside Washington, D.C., with an anticipated opening in late 2027. This flagship venue aims to celebrate all aspects of Warhammer, including gaming, painting, and storytelling. Unlike the original Warhammer World in Nottingham, UK, which boasts an exhibition center and tournament halls for tabletop games, the new location will focus on delivering a comparable yet unique experience for fans. The announcement aligns with the recent surge in popularity for Warhammer 40,000, driven by successful video games like Space Marine 2 and upcoming cinematic adaptations, including a series by Henry Cavill for Amazon.

The expansion to the United States reflects Games Workshop's strategy to capitalize on the increasing interest in Warhammer 40,000 and welcome new fans from a broader audience. With an impending announcement regarding the 11th Edition of the game, as well as new model releases, enthusiasts are eager to see how this new venue will enhance the community experience and attract newcomers.

When will the Warhammer World in the U.S. open?

The new Warhammer World is expected to open its doors in late 2027.

Warhammer 40,000 is a tabletop miniature wargame that has gained a massive following since its inception. Known for its rich lore and expansive universe, the franchise has expanded beyond tabletop gaming, influencing video games, novels, and now a cinematic universe. With the recent release of titles such as Space Marine 2, the Warhammer brand continues to engage both veteran and new players alike, setting the stage for this exciting new development.
