Second Turn: Connection over Catan with Ligare Gatherings
Ligare designs nights where strangers stop feeling like strangers.
No apps, no badge scanning, no performative small talk—just shared play, good wine, and a seat that’s been chosen for you on purpose.
Our May preview sold out; now we’re back for round two. New faces, same spark. If you were there, you already get it. If you missed it, this is your shot.
How the night flows (subject to change):
Act 1 – Meet the room with party games
We drop easy, personality‑powered party games—think Sushi Go!, Wavelength, and a few surprises. You’ll learn by playing, not by listening, while the room warms up and latecomers slide in.
Act 2 – Connect over Catan, curated and guided
Tables are matched using your Connection Profile, and our resident tournament player Kiara teaches the essentials in ten minutes. Our trademark "Spark Cards" give your table chances to connect and get to real conversation while the game flows. First to 10 points or 90 minutes—whichever comes first—claims the island (and bragging rights).
Act 3 – Stick around and dive deeper
When the dice rest, we swap the hexes for question prompts that push conversation past “What do you do?” Stay at your table or roam—follow the energy.
