Roll Britannia Returns to UK Games Expo 2026

Dungeons & Dragons might have been born in America—but spiritually? It belongs in Britain.

After all, this is the land that gave us J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis—the architects of modern fantasy. Their worlds didn’t just inspire the genre—they defined it.

And what else are the British famously good at?
Comedy. Some of the best in the world.

Now yes, the French might have us beat when it comes to food…
But we’ve got something far more powerful: comedy and sorcerers.

So, in the most British way possible—France, we’ll take comedy and sorcerers, you keep the croissants.

And with that patriotic buzz in the air, let me introduce you to one of the UK’s nerdiest, and funniest, delights: Roll Britannia.

They’re heading back to UK Games Expo 2026, running Friday 29 May to Sunday 31 May at the NEC Birmingham, bringing their live show “Your Adventure Awaits.” You’ll also find them at stand 2-894 throughout the event.

Powered by 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons, six of the UK’s most electrifying podcasters—Alex, Paul, Sophie, James, Tom, and Chip—dive headfirst into a world of orcs, ogres, chaos, and comedy. The result? Pure, unpredictable magic.

They’ve been called “D&D legends” by Wargamer, and even the BBC has dubbed them “a huge international hit.”

This marks their fourth year at UK Games Expo, and they’re not slowing down.

You’ll find Roll Britannia at stand 2-894 all weekend, and on Saturday evening, they’ll unleash full chaos in their live show—where the audience themselves shape the story. If you’re heading along, don’t just walk past, get involved.

Your adventure awaits.
