Do I Need a Ticket?
First - this event is free & open to the public; though you should register via this luma invitation (button above!) to attend.
Second - as the venue is reserving tables for this event, seating may be limited. We strongly recommend purchasing a 'ticket' to secure your seat.
Also, for each $10 value in gift card "ticket" purchased through Sun 5/25, attendees will receive a free raffle ticket!
A 'ticket' is a gift card and is redeemable at Saluhall food vendors! You'll receive a QR code valid for the full amount towards food & drink. Our org doesn't get a cut nor a commission, but you do help us reach the "minimum spend" required to reserve such a large space!

Schedule & Events
The event will be held on Sat June 7 from noon to 6pm in an open house format - drop-in when you can and stay as long as you're available, no commitments!
Learn new games: Gaming experts will be on hand to teach and play games - no rule book dissertations here!
Keep it light? You'll find game options from light party games to more strategic Euro-faire. We pride ourselves on helping folks find games that match their comfort level so no need to sit through a long, complex game if you prefer a faster, lighter game :)
Raffle for prizes: Registered attendees receive a raffle ticket for fantastic prizes including board games, game bags, and gift certificates! Raffle tickets will also be available the day of the event.
Community: Meet other gaming enthusiasts and make new friends in an open & welcoming environment.
In our increasingly digital world, face-to-face interaction & shared experiences are more important than ever. Gathering around games can provide a wonderful platform to combat social isolation & build community!
