AIRECON 2026 Preview with Mark Cooke! Plus Bucket List Convention Games!

It’s that time of year again when the board gaming community heads to the beautiful town of Harrogate for four fantastic days of tabletop gaming at AireCon 🎲.

It wouldn’t feel like AireCon for us at the Bucket List Board Gamers without our annual catch-up with co-founder Mark Cooke!

This year we chat about what attendees can expect from the convention and share some of our top game picks that are perfect for a long weekend of gaming.

We also dig into the details of the event itself: how the halls are laid out, what’s new for this year, what returning visitors will recognise, and the merchandise, food, and other treats you’ll find while you’re there.

If you’re heading to AireCon or simply curious about one of the UK’s most welcoming tabletop gaming festivals, this episode will get you ready for the weekend ahead.

Enjoy! 🎧🎲
