Grab your D20 and pack your satchel, we’re going on an adventure. Dungeons & Dragons, the world’s greatest RPG, is coming to The o2 in London for a special two-day fan expo, taking place on August 21-22, 2026. Presented by Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast, in collaboration with AEG Presents, the event will feature live gameplay, panels, traders, and much more for fans of all experience levels. Tickets will be available from Friday 6 March at 10am at www.dndfanexpo.com.
D&D changed the face of gaming and fantasy with its launch in 1974. The most widely played roleplaying game of all time, D&D has reached millions of fans and influenced fantasy entertainment, video games, and literature. With its unprecedented mix of roleplaying, storytelling, strategy, and dice-rolling, D&D welcomed players into the adventure like no game before it. The game has become a global cultural phenomenon most recently seen in the blockbuster TV series, Stranger Things.
The expo kicks off on Friday 21 August with a special headline performance from the UK’s own High Rollers, one of the world’s most popular D&D actual play groups, who will present a live one-shot adventure on stage. Tickets for this show are sold separately, with VIP upgrades available. A full programme of panels and Q&As will also run throughout the day, with the majority of seating available to main event ticket holders on a first-come, first-served basis, and guaranteed seating available via an optional add-on.
On Saturday 22 August, The O2 will transform to host a Live Actual Play spectacular, featuring some of the biggest names in D&D and world-famous voice actors behind Baldur’s Gate 3 and other iconic games performing on stage. This includes Anjali Bhimani (Apex Legends, Overwatch), Samantha Béart (Baldur’s Gate 3), Neil Newbon (Baldur’s Gate 3), Devora Wilde (Baldur’s Gate 3), Theo Solomon (Baldur’s Gate 3), Jasmine Bhullar (Dimension 20), and Jasper Cartwright (Dimension 20).
Actual Play shows bring the game to life for audiences, combining improvised storytelling, character performance and dice-rolling drama. With bespoke staging designed to immerse fans directly into the campaign, this landmark event will see D&D played live in one of the UK’s largest arenas for the very first time.
Across both days, fans can explore a packed programme of D&D-themed activities included with their main event ticket. These include panels and Q&A sessions with creators and performers, gaming tables, traders from across the D&D world, cosplay meetups, surprise performances, and more announcements to follow.
