The ANTCON Story 

What started as a crazy concept has grown into the most vibrant antkeeper event in the UK. ANTCON was created to give back to our wonderful customers, offering a unique opportunity for ant enthusiasts to gather, learn, and celebrate their shared hobby.

From its humble beginnings, ANTCON has blossomed into a beloved annual event where we open our store (and our hearts) to you. We invite you to explore our active business, meet our team, and enjoy a day packed with fun and learning.

ANTCON is more than just an event – it's a family gathering.

Double the Fun in 2025! 

Due to popular demand, we’re thrilled to announce that ANTCON 2025 will be hosted over two days! Join us on Saturday or Sunday, with each day accommodating 140 different attendees. This way, we can double our capacity and ensure more of our community gets to enjoy the ANTCON experience.

 Community Tradition 

A large part of ANTCON is the unforgettable friendships that are formed in a welcoming environment. It has become a beloved tradition for visitors to meet up at the local Wetherspoons for social drinks and fun the night before and the night of ANTCON. Everyone is welcome to join in and experience the camaraderie that makes our community so special.
