A Dungeons & Dragons Fan Expo is coming to The O2 in London this August.

The expo kicks off on the Friday with a headline performance from the High Rollers, who will present a live one-shot adventure on stage. A full programme of panels and Q&As will also run throughout the day.

On the Saturday, The O2 will host a Live Actual Play, featuring some of the biggest names in D&D and voice actors behind Baldur’s Gate 3. This includes Samantha Béart (Baldur’s Gate 3), Neil Newbon (Baldur’s Gate 3), Devora Wilde (Baldur’s Gate 3) and Theo Solomon.

Actual Play shows bring the game to life for audiences, combining improvised storytelling, character performance and ‘dice-rolling drama’.
