We were at Red Deer’s first ever nerd expo!
Mount Crom Armouries at Central Alberta Nerd Expo 2026 • Lots of cosplayers and attendees showed up! Lots of people loved our handforged medieval items, lots of people learned about us, and we were thrilled on how many of these were sold in the whole weekend! For such a first event on this small city, this event turned out to be great and filled with like-minded people, as it seems like we have needed this for a long time! We do hope that this amazing local event will continue annually for years to come.
