WASMEX - Western Australian Scale Model Expo 2026

For over 25 years WASMEx has been Western Australia's premier scale modelling event.

WASMEx is a volunteer organised, multi hall exposition held over 2 days in August 2026.

The main hall features displays by both local clubs and individual enthusiasts and also commercial stands representing some of Perth's major hobby retailers.

A second hall incorporates the WA scale model building championship competition - a fantastic display of built scale models of all types including aircraft, military vehicle, watercraft, busts / figures, civilian vehicles, Sci-fi / fantasy and Gundam. Young builders can also join in the Intermediate and Junior categories.

You don't need to be in a club to enter the competition.

New for this year, Wargamers group Outpost 6030 Inc are running an exciting Vanguard format - bolt action tournament. 

A static display of vintage military vehicles will be onsite along with food and drinks being available.

Sunday morning hosts a second-hand market to allow builders to sell unbuilt models and kits from their personal stash or buyers to pick up a model to add to theirs! 

There will be hundreds of scale models on display along with hobby vendors and various Perth and regional clubs in attendance.

It is a family friendly event and a great weekend activity.
