Horus Heresy Open Day 2022 looks awesome, but there’s one big problem, it looks to be impossible to actually get a ticket!
With all the rumors, leaks, and GW confirmed stuff, the event is shaping up to be a seriously awesome event with plenty to see! As this is where they will reveal the new starter set, how the new edition is changing everything, and probably a bunch of goodies. That all sounds awesome to us, but actually getting a ticket to the event is a different story.
The tickets went on sale on April 4th, but by the looks of it didn’t last more than a minute… There could have just been that much hype as this has been talked about for basically years now. One thing to note though, if you want to join the waiting list for the event, you can here.
Let’s check out the event, then see just how fast it sold out.
Horus Heresy Open Day 2022
This huge event is a must for every fan of Warhammer: The Horus Heresy. The massive new edition will be on display in all its glory, and you’ll be able to marvel at the fantastic new miniatures, glory in some of the sprawling studio armies on display, and paint one of the new plastic MkVI Space Marines – who you’ll even get to take home with you.
We’ve seen that the Mark VI armor will be in plastic and part of the new edition. So, while it will be awesome to paint and hobby on those at the event, we want to see what else will be there!
While a lot of hobbyists were hoping that we would see more at AdeptiCon, May isn’t that far away, and we’ll probably see teasers all the way up to it. This isn’t the only event either coming up for HH.
The Horus Heresy: Battles in the Age of Darkness
Challenge opposing generals across five battles in the Age of Darkness as Warhammer World welcomes Horus Heresy players back for a gaming event where sportsmanship and well-presented armies go hand in hand. Who will win in this contest of generals – Loyalist or Traitor? Find in this battle to determine an overall champion.
You’ll play five 3,000-point games, battling over the awesome terrain in the amazing gaming hall.
Considering this is taking place a few months later, we assume this might even be a tournament with the new rules, perhaps even with 3000 points being the standard for the new edition of Horus Heresy. Meaning, it would already be released by the end of July. With Dominion and Indomintus the big July releases for 2021, and 2020 respectively, that is probably not too much of a stretch at this point!

There are quite a few people out there commenting basically the same thing (although in a more excited fashion). With tickets apparently selling out in literally a minute…
Sad times. ☹️ I was on the site ready and waiting from 6:50pm but the Horus Heresy Open Day tickets were gone in literally seconds! #WarhammerCommunity #HorusHeresy pic.twitter.com/S7RupuZysq

While it’s great to see people excited about the event, this could suck for the majority of the people as reportedly there were only 250 available for purchase.
It seems like if you hit the refresh button and somehow didn’t get in at the exact perfect moment you were out of luck. But the good news is there is a waitlist you can join to see if any become available in the future at least.
Looks like the majority of us will have to wait and just drool over the pictures rather than actually go to the event and see what’s happening!
