The Vault Gaming Hall: About Us
Beginning with a love for gaming, The Vault has a simple goal: building a community of wargamers. We are a gaming workshop in Peterborough, giving new players the opportunity to discover the hobby in a safe, thriving community. We can cater to a huge range of games with ready-to-go armies of our own available for use:
- 40K
- Sigmar
- Heresy
- Deadzone/Firefight
- Star Wars Legion
and many more. See here for information on all our upcoming events.
We only retail tabletop products and services. We run community and UK wide events as well as camping weekends away.
Wargaming Done Right
We run regular club nights during the week for a wide range of wargames, and you can book tables suitable for any game you want to play.
Entry is free to Gold members. There is a £5 guest fee for non-members.
Learn To Play
If you’ve thought about trying the hobby before but felt daunted by the complexity, you can come to The Vault completely free just to spectate. You can get a taste for what wargaming is like, and with such variety in play, we’re sure you’ll find something you’ll enjoy.
Opening Hours
5pm until late Monday to Friday
We are frequently in the shop outside these hours, call us on 01733 450254 to see if we’re in!
We also aim to open up for club members at a time that suits you, just give us enough notice and we’ll try to accommodate.
For public holidays, please check with us.
Army Loan Library
We have a large range of assembled, painted armies which are available from our Army Library. We can cater for 40K, Sigmar, Heresy, Deadzone/Firefight, Kings of War, Star Wars Legion, Bolt Action, and several others. Please contact us or pop in to see what we have available.

£10 one-off charge per day for your own use. You can change out for a different army as many times as you want during your visit with us.

Free access to a community table. You are welcome to build and paint your figures here at no cost, spaces are limited however.

FOOD
There will be a fully stocked snacks and soft drinks shop on site and we can offer pot noodles and similar types of food. We have a RIJO coffee machine and can offer other hot beverages.
Local
There are several Airbnb’s, motels and hotels local to the venue as well as a large selection of pubs and food place. Peterborough also has a number of gaming lounges and gaming retail outlets dotted around the city. This makes having a few days away to nerd very attractive and easy to organise.
VENUE RULES
As this is not only a new venture but a new concept in tabletop gaming, we will ask everyone to bear with us with our timetable.
We must remind everyone we don’t own your hobby, you do, but we will have our own flavour and style of doing things. As with all cheeseburgers, there’s one out there for everyone and we hope to capture everyone’s gaming tastes. Our only rules are to be kind, helpful and have fun. If every time a warm welcome is given to a new arrival, this will help keep the venues positive energy and atmosphere.
