What we’re about

Melbourne Asian Board Gamers is a safe space for you to meet like-minded people who love tabletop games. Our board game meet ups are hosted at Marche in the Melbourne CBD as a regular weekly event.
With access to the games library at the cafe and over 200 games in our member's personal collections, there's always something for everyone. If there is something specific you want to play, feel free to send a request and we'll be more than happy to teach/play it.
Take a look at our Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/melbourneasianboardgamers/) to see what we're about!
NOTICE: Due to lockdown and the uncertainty of covid restrictions, our events will be put on hold. As soon as it is safe to, we will begin schedule regular Meetups.

⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆Attendance⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆
We are noticing more people are showing up than RSVP numbers and also not spending $10 minimum on food.

Beginning from March, we will be keeping track of attendance list. Please be aware if you are not on the RSVP list you can still attend if you pay the full Marche boardgame price ($22). We will also be asking you to purchase minimum of $10 on food/drink, and to pay the $1 admin fee.

As our events are highly popular, if you have RSVP as going but can no longer attend, please amend your RSVP to allow others a chance to attend. If we notice people are not showing up when they have RSVP, you will be moved to wait list the following week and give priority to those who actually turn up.

We appreciate everyone's understanding and co-operation.
