Pub Night Games Night at The American

Welcome to the Vancouver Pub Night Game Night! This event is all about meeting some amazing people while kicking back with a drink and playing some cool games. You don't need to be a board game veteran to join us. Most of the games that we'll bring are simple and easy to learn and there will always be somebody who is happy to explain a game to you that you have never played. Or if you'd prefer to spend less time playing games and more time just socializing then that's fine too!

Feel free to request a game that you would like us to bring or to bring your own games. Some of the more popular games that we'll bring, just to give you an idea of what to expect, include:

• Codenames
• Secret Hitler
• Decrypto
• Fake Artist
• Taco Cat
• Ticket to Ride
• Trap Words
• WaveLength
• Cheese Thief

And many more. At any given time there will be at least 3-4 different games going on so you should hopefully be able to find something that interests you

FAQ:

The event is full, can I come anyway? No. Although I do my best to secure the largest reservation I can, sometimes there's just not enough space. Showing up at a full event will cause issues, so please come to the next event instead.

Is this a dating group? No. It is fine if relationships form, but anyone found using this meetup primarily to hook up will be removed. Unsolicited messages to group members you have not met is also not allowed. If anyone is making you uncomfortable or sending you unsolicited messages, please speak to the organizers and we will help.

I'm going to be late, is that fine? Yes. The sooner you can arrive the better, but no worries if you're late. Come whenever is convenient for you.

I don't drink alcohol, can I still join? Yes. You don't need alcohol to have fun and make friends. However, you should still purchase some food or a non-alcoholic drink from the venue, so that we're invited back in the future.

Is there an age restriction, and what ID do I need? You need to be 19+ to attend these events, since they take place at bars. You'll need 2 forms of valid ID, one of which has to be government issued (Drivers License, Passport, etc.) The other can be a non-photo ID, or a credit card with your name on it.

It's my first time going, any suggestions? Don't worry, you're not alone. Most events are full of first timers. The sooner you arrive the better, as it's easier to meet new people early on. If you're feeling nervous, message me via Meetup or come up to me, and I'll help you get acquainted with people.

What time does the event end? The event officially runs for 4 hours, however it goes longer if people want to stick around. You're welcome to stay as long or as short as you want.
