What we’re about
We've taught Dungeons & Dragons to 100s of absolute beginners for 10+ years, for free. Meet in realspace for collaborative storytelling, chat, imagine, thrill, and laugh together.
Our “Courage & Chaos” series kicks off each year with a simple introduction to D&D, followed by fortnightly sessions around the table. After you graduate from that series, you will be ready to play D&D anywhere, with anyone!
Our pub meetups are a great way to meet new friends, form your own parties, and build experience beyond the beginner level.
We occasionally host workshops for those who want to lead their own D&D party—the leader is called a Dungeon Master, and it’s easy to do. We’ll show you the way.
We actively include people of all kinds and promote a respectful attitude among all our players. We especially take pride in gender diversity—both in and out of character!

Find out how to play Dungeons & Dragons with beginners. Find out how to run D&D yourself, to form new groups and friendships. All for free with nothing to bring.
Lifelong game designer Matthew Ford will teach absolute beginners how to play D&D, and continue with beginner-level play.
Matthew also will help people who want to learn how to run D&D games themselves. It's called "Dungeon Mastering" or DMing for short. Matthew will be on hand for advice and organisation.
All materials are supplied for you to play and DM. Nothing to bring or prepare. Come as you are, even if you know absolutely nothing about it.
Free coffee, tea and nibbles provided to the needy. This can be your gaming home.

* Bonus info for all who care: As stadium developers approach Ibis Island, they will find out how much our community values this special place. Two promise-breaking Olympic stadiums are slated to be built in Victoria Park, threatening Ibis Island and our gaming community. Let's help them find out why they had better leave this spot untouched. This weekly event series is a spark. Join us so we can all build a fire.
PAFO is not associated with www.savevictoriapark.com but that's a good way to learn more.
Hey stadium developers, here we are! Play Around and Find Out! :)
