The inaugural Tabletop Gaming Live exhibition takes place September 29-30 at Alexandra Palace, London and we're going to be there! It's promising to be an exciting couple of day, with a host of exhibitors, participation games, demos, seminars, workshops and a huge open gaming area.
Zatu Games at Tabletop Gaming Live
Zatu Games are excited to be part of this amazing new exhibition and will be offering an amazing array of events on our stall. We'll be having two star prize draws, one for each day of the event, that you will not want to miss! On Saturday, you will have the chance to win a copy of Gloomhaven - the number one game on BoardGameGeek. Then, on Sunday, we'll have a special Scythe bundle up for grabs. Come along to our stall and enter our star prize draw to be in with a chance.
Alongside this, we'll also be running a tombola throughout the weekend. We'll have vouchers, star prize entries, small games, sweets and toys up for grabs. Look out for members of our team handing out goody bags too, they're full of little treats and surprises!
If you're hoping to make some new board game purchases at Tabletop Gaming Live, you need to visit our stand. Not only will you find some of the latest releases, but we're also having a special "bargain bin sale" full of discounted stock.
If you're new to the hobby and aren't sure which game(s) would be good for you, there will be a friendly bunch of people on-hand willing to demo a number of games! Our team will be demoing gateway, quick, and party/family titles such as Codenames: Pictures, Avocado Smash and Ticket to Ride: New York. More titles will be confirmed closer to the event!
If that was not enough incentive to come and visit our stand, there is one more thing that I am sure will convince you to pop on by. For regular visitors to our website, and in particular readers of the Zatu blog, you can meet some of the contributors in person. Okay, okay....the chance to grab a bargain, the latest releases and the chance to win either Gloomhaven or a Scythe bundle is probably the biggest draw, but hopefully meeting some of the bloggers is an added bonus. So, if you are planning on attending the show paying a visit to the Zatu Games stand is a must.
