This year again, we are sponsoring and attending Foam Fest in Bristol – UK! We’re proud to be an Elite sponsor this year, and hope to see you at Foam Fest!
What is Foam Fest?
Foam Fest is a celebration of the Nerf hobby organised by members of the BritNerf community. This includes all aspects of the hobby like collecting, modding, painting, engineering and playing. Foam Fest is attracting people from all over the UK, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark and the US. (and maybe more?) Along with a lot of fun events Foam Fest is a Community Interest Company and the convention will raise money for a good cause. All money raised by the convention is donated to Off the Record Bristol (OTR). OTR is a menthal health social movement by and for young people aged 11-25.
