Did you know that Meetup is a great platform to discover new games with a handful of people living near you ? Do a quick search on meetup and you'll find one or the other group that is hosting some boardgame nights once a month or so.
I'm not here to do advertising for meetup - but started a meetup group myself a while back in Brussels. We call ourselves the boardgame monkeys and are targeting the english-speaking expat community of Belgium. We realized that there was no association hosting boardgames nights for expats and we just went for it !! You should give it a try too, wherever you are - to participate to the reborn of boardgames as a fun activity between family & friends.
Great idea..
I belong to a sci-fi/fantasy meet-up and we do meet for games about every other month.
Thanks! this seems like a wonderful idea.
I actually found out about a gaming group at my FLGS through a meetup listing.
That's great idea
It’s really interesting to see how boardgame meetups have grown into such vibrant communities! I agree that platforms like Meetup are great for bringing gamers together. I’ve always enjoyed boardgames, and finding like-minded people locally can make all the difference in building lasting friendships. It's inspiring to hear how the boardgame monkeys group was formed for expats in Brussels. Has anyone else had success with starting similar groups in other cities? Would love to hear about your experiences!
