FREAK WARS TO HOST THE WORLD MODEL EXPO IN 2028!
We did it!
With a mix of excitement, pride, and tons of enthusiasm, we are officially announcing that Freak Wars will host the World Model Expo in 2028.
Yes, you read that right! The most important international event in miniature painting and scale modeling is coming to Madrid, brought to you by Freak Wars.
This news marks a historic milestone for our community, for the Hobby in Spain, and for all of you who have been by our side over the years—helping build, step by step, what started as a small local event… and will, in 2028, gather the very best of the world right here in our city.
Here’s a sneak peek at the provisional logo we’ve prepared for the announcement:
What is the World Model Expo?
The World Model Expo (WME) is the most prestigious international event in the world of artistic modeling and miniature painting. Held every three years, it brings together thousands of artists, creators, brands, and Hobby lovers for a unique experience where talent and creativity know no borders.
After legendary editions in Eindhoven, Stresa, and Chicago… in 2028, the heart of the modeling world will beat in Madrid!
Why is this so special?
Because it’s a dream come true. Because it’s a recognition of the collective effort of a passionate and ever-growing community. And because Freak Wars has always been an event made with heart, by and for fans of the Hobby.
The World Model Expo 2028 will be an international gathering, a showcase of talent, and a huge celebration of the universe we all love: brushes, resin, dice, rules, dioramas… and boundless imagination.
A heartfelt thank you to our community
To everyone who comes year after year, to those who chat in the hallways, who teach, learn, play, organize, create, support, and believe—
This is yours. This is ours. This is Freak Wars.
We have an exciting road ahead to 2028…
And we’ll enjoy it together, as always!
