Turnip on the Docks 7
2026-09-05 10:00 - 18:00 (Europe/London) | The Great Escape, 1 Auckland Road, Grimsby, DN31 3RP, United Kingdom
Along a dried up stretch of river, somewhere in the east of Cist, lies a dilapidated fishing town named Grim.
Once a shining jewel of Cist, now its only exports are salty bones from the marsh and rowdy songs about fish and piss.
The inhabitants of Grim are locked in a perpetual war with their neighbours in nearby Cleg; a war waged primarily through lazily hurled insults. And the occasional gnarled carrot.

Dare you attempt to seek your fortune in the ruins of Grim?
Gather your compatriots, and raise your wretched regiments in reverence to the root!
What is Turnip28?
Turnip28 is a post-apocalyptic vegetable wargame. Players command Regiments of fantastic miniatures made up of incompetent Snobs, bedraggled Followers and bizarre war machines. You will weep, you will cheer, as deranged peasants kick each other to death in the mud.
Turnip on the Docks returns to bring all the chaos of Turnip28 to the East coast. Join the march, fix bayonets, and be ready.
