The Colorado Cup

The Colorado Cup is Green Banner’s answer to the call from the Front Range: a major March Warhammer event run with the trademark quality, precision, and energy that only Green Banner delivers.

While players from everywhere are invited, this tournament is built for the local community and by the local community—a celebration of the tight-knit Warhammer scene along the Front Range and the passion that defines it.

As with all Green Banner events, you can expect a competitive, fair, and professionally run tournament. But the Colorado Cup also places special emphasis on strengthening and spotlighting the incredible community that has grown here—and pushing it to new heights.

We’ve selected the Adams County Fairgrounds as our venue for its easy access to Denver International Airport, its escape from the city’s notorious traffic, and its comfortable, spacious environment—perfect for hanging out, rolling dice, and enjoying a weekend of great games with great people.
