What we’re about
Update: we have a new location for our weekly game nights and game afternoons! We play games at Theothorne (Callunaplein 77, Dieren).
Board Game Club Dieren is a club that meets once a week in Dieren (between Arnhem and Zutphen) to play board games and card games. We sit down and play games every week, alternating between Friday evening and Sunday afternoon. Board Game Club Dieren is a vibrant community of tabletop gaming enthusiasts who come together to share their love for board games of all kinds. Whether you're a seasoned player or a curious beginner, our club offers a warm and inclusive environment for all to join.
We currently have about 40 members coming from Dieren, Arnhem, Doetinchem, Apeldoorn, Deventer and other nearby places. While the majority of our members are Dutch, we embrace diversity and warmly welcome everyone. We are happy to switch to English whenever needed to ensure that all participants can fully immerse themselves in the fun.
We believe that everyone should have access to the joy of board games, and that's why our game nights and game afternoons are free of charge. We do, however, welcome any small donations (such as € 1 per event) you'd like to contribute (though they are not required) to help cover our operational costs.
See our website (in Dutch) for more details. You can contact us through [email protected] if you have any questions.
