The UK's longest-running retro gaming market, with traders selling vintage video games, consoles, computers, board games and related collectibles.
The London Gaming Market returns to the Royal National Hotel on Sunday 15 November, the last London date of 2026. It's a collector-style market run by Replay Events, who describe it as the biggest and longest-running gaming market in the UK and the only one of its kind held in the heart of the city. Now in its eleventh year, the event is run by an award-winning organiser citing 15 years of experience and more than 250,000 past attendees.
The format is straightforward: traders set up stalls selling retro video games, board games, computers, consoles, handhelds, arcade machines, artwork, apparel and import games, and visitors can buy and sell alongside each other. It's a place to dig through old titles, pick up a console you've been after, or trade in a few things you no longer need. Regulars include retro book publisher Bitmap Books, whose catalogue is on show in the Bitmap Books Library with show-exclusive pricing, and Japanese shopping service ZenMarket.
The market runs every four months, so this is the final chance to catch it in the capital before the year is out. The venue is at the Royal National Hotel, 38-51 Bedford Way, Russell Square, Bloomsbury, London WC1H 0DG — a four-minute walk from Russell Square station and five minutes from the British Museum.
