Happy February everyone! As we all wait for spring to grace us with its presence, we have some events to make the tail end of winter a little more bearable. Winter Wednesdays continues at Rockaway Brewing Co. and we are hosting an epic Game Festival in Downtown Boston!
Also, award season is here, so we have some movie trivia for you at the bottom of this email.
A Game Festival Worth Driving 4 Hours For!
On April 6th, we are hosting a giant Game Festival in Downtown Boston! This is a flagship event for us, so we are inviting our fans from all corners of the country to join us for a day filled with board game excitement. If you are a board game super-nerd (or just love a great road trip), this is worth the commute from New York! The event will give people an opportunity to play all manner of game, from board games to trivia to puzzle rooms to a giant rock-paper-scissors tournament, and so much more! At the heart of our event will be 25+ local board game designers showing off their cardboard creations. You'll be able to play everything from paper-and-pen ideas, to advanced prototypes ticketed for Kickstarter, to finished products available for retail. All while meeting the brilliant minds behind them.
The first 50 tickets sold cost just $25 and come with a $5 voucher good for food or drink at any eatery in the fantastic food hall where we'll be hosting this event: High Street Place. But hurry fast because the prices go up from there.
