In Australia, a concerted campaign of direct action stopped their arms fair in 2008. In one month, one of the world’s biggest arms fairs is taking place in London, which will bring together 30,000 arms buyers and sellers. But we too can show that it is not welcome and that we will do whatever we can to stop it.

On Saturday 22nd August, take part in a day of workshops, plotting and scheming for an end to the DSEI arms fair and an end to the arms trade.
Find out more about one of the world’s biggest arms fairs and hear about inspiring past actions
Get involved in planning creative actions to try and stop it this September
Join the creative space where you can design a placard, spoof song lyrics and make props
Find out about your legal rights
Get ready for a week of action from 7th September to make it as difficult as possible for the fair to go ahead. Exhibition equipment and military hardware will be rolling (or sailing) into ExCeL – let’s stop it getting to its destination.

When: Saturday 22 August, 10.30am-4.30pm
Where: George Fox Room, Friends House, 173 Euston Road, London, NW1 2BJ
