Buddy Up Social – Meet, Play, Connect @Wiper and True Taproom

Board games + friendly matchmaking = instant fun.

Buddy Up Social is all about making it easy to meet new people, whether you come alone or with a friend. We’ll help pair you up with other attendees and seat you at tables where you can jump straight into a game — no awkward wandering, no “where should I sit?” moments.
We mix the tables during the evening so you get to meet multiple people, try different games, and leave with more connections than you came with.

How it works:

1. Arrive, grab a drink, and sign in.
2. We’ll match you with a buddy or a small group.
3. Play a short, easy-to-learn game to break the ice.
4. Rotate tables and try something new.

Why join us?

• Perfect if you’re new to Bristol or just want to expand your circle.
• Great mix of quick icebreaker games and slightly longer ones for deeper conversations.
• Friendly, inclusive vibe — no prior game experience needed.

Want to host a table?
We’re always looking for people to run games, especially easy icebreakers. If you’ve got one in mind, let us know!

🎲 Come for the games, stay for the friendships.
