Wayland Games Yearly Round-up: 2025 Highlights
2025 was another successful and wild year for Wayland Games! Before we delve into some of the incredible adventures we have embarked on over the past year, we want to extend our warmest thanks to our fantastic customers, whose support has enabled us to grow and who allow us to provide better service each and every day.
Here are some of our favourite events and highlights from 2025!
Major Milestones
Moving into a brand new, state-of-the-art warehouse
Wayland Games Warehouse
The inevitable growth of Wayland necessitated us to shed our old skin and embrace change. To do this, we decided to move to a brand-new, custom-built warehouse to reflect our business's expansion. We have optimised shipping times and moved closer to our sustainability ethos by installing solar panels and energy-efficient lighting!
50K Trustpilot Reviews
50K Reviews On Trustpilot
Receiving such substantial positive feedback, we decided to give away 10,000 loyalty points (worth £100 in-store credit) to five lucky individuals! We genuinely believe in giving back to our community.
Community Support
Salute’s Painting Competition
Salute 52 Painting Competition
For the last few years, we have attended Salute and sponsored their painting competition! We believe in community above all else, and providing avenues for events to provide a better experience to attendees is another fantastic way we can make this happen.
UKGE
UKGE 2025
We returned to UKGE this year as a major sponsor once more. We got to offer paint & take tables, Bandai build-and-take, and an extensive range of goodies to keep the lovely attendees' hobby needs fulfilled!
Sponsoring Grimdarkgauntlents
We supported a wonderful young creator who burst into the miniature scene with fantastic content. We think it’s very important to pass on this creative hobby to the next generation, so we sent out a goody package to support her endeavours!

UK Twilight Imperium National Championships
Are you a huge Twilight Imperium fan? Well, we stayed relatively quiet about this one, but we decided to sponsor the UK’s biggest Twilight Imperium tournament! Tickets are sold out, but stay tuned for the results on the 26th of January 2026!
The British Library’s Sponsorship
Secret Maps Exhibition
This year, we sponsored the incredibly informative and well-thought-out Secret Maps exhibition, as presented by the lovely folk over at The British Library! There’s still time to catch the exhibition…
Staff Association
Painting Competitions and Bake Offs
Our staff reflect the passion of our wonderful customers, and we pride ourselves on that. To encourage creativity, a competitive spirit, and cross-departmental bonding, we host both painting competitions and a Wayland Bake Off to help staff let off some steam!
Wear It Pink Day
Wear It Pink Day
It’s incredibly important to cop a feel… because without it, how else could you spot if anything was wrong with your body?! For the second year in a row, we’ve decided to support Wear It Pink Day in solidarity with Breast Cancer Now, because we believe in supporting a good cause. Our trade members even participated all the way from Germany!
Christmas Celebrations
After an incredibly busy, but successful year, we wrapped up with our annual Christmas Jumper Day and Christmas meal!
