Petit boardgames and chats @ Netherworld
Details
Petit boardgames and chats @ Netherworld
DetailsYes, this event is on a Tuesday! We couldn't book it on the regular day, so we are trying something different this month.
Come along and have fun playing (new) board games, arcade and pinball machines, chilling and relaxing from your day and/or simply having conversations with other people from the group. Netherworld has a HUGE selection of boardgames, so there is no need to bring any.
RSVPs are even looser than normal. This is a drop-in where you can come early or leave anytime. Netherworld is open from 12:00 to 23:00.
We will be at the tables in front of the Kitchen, just to the right after you come in.
Everyone is welcome, but if you are not vegan (even vegetarian) and you are attending this event, please order vegan food to respect the mission of the group and other members. Luckily, at Netherworld, this couldn't be easier, as the food is "vegan by default". https://www.netherworldarcade.com/food/
Look forward to seeing you!

Extra dinner + boardgames @ Vega Cafe, Spring Hill

Extra dinner + boardgames @ Vega Cafe, Spring Hill
DetailsWe love Vega and our regular boardgames there, so we are trialling running a second event there on the fourth friday of each month (in addition to our usual second friday).
Come along and eat, drink, chat and play games with like-minded people!
We provide straightforward games and will help you learn to play them - all you need to bring is yourself. If you have any games you want to share, we appreciate it if you bring them along as well.
We will be at Vega Cafe in Spring Hill. It's a lovely space with outdoor tables and gorgeous artwork on the walls. To check out Vega Cafe's delicious dinner menu and drinks, or for more info about the venue check out https://www.vegacafe.com.au/ If you would like to support our events, please make sure to purchase something, even just a selection from their delicious drinks, cakes and pastries.
This is a casual event, so turning up late, with an extra friend and changing your RSVP at the last minute are all fine. We often get a good turnout, so we look forward to seeing regular faces and new ones.
Our group philosophy relates to the concept of ubuntu. So check that idea out if you haven't before.

Vegan Middle-level Boardgames @ Loving Hut - 3rd Saturday

The games change, but examples of what we often play include Meadow, Wingspan, Sagrada, Catan, Carcassonne, Harmonies and Splendor. These are slightly more involved games than the ones we play at our other events. This means the games usually take 30-90 minutes each. We'll do our best to get you started as always.
If you want to bring your own games to play, we are very happy for you to join us. If you want, you can post any games and a how-to-play videos in the comments.
The Loving Hut are letting us use this space for free, so we want attendees to support them in return. The Loving Hut offers a wide range of food and snack options and is 100% vegan. Check out their menu and details.
This is a drop-in, so come and go anytime you like. We look forward to see regulars and new people.
Disclaimer: This is not an official or professional group, just friendly people who turn up in the same place to play boardgames and eat vegan food.
