Hosted at FunMix Billiards, ESports and Mahjong, a modern and vibrant space just off King & Spadina, this event brings together a mix of players of all levels. You don’t need to be experienced — most people come to meet others, rotate through games, and enjoy the environment. Unlike our more community-style neighborhood events, this downtown session has a more social flow, with players rotating frequently so you’ll have the chance to meet a variety of people throughout the night. Women attend free, and no pool experience is required. **What to expect:** * Drop-in friendly pool games (8-ball or other games) * Rotating play so everyone gets involved * A mix of beginners, casual players, and regulars * Music, energy, and a central downtown setting * BCA Rules (no bar rules!) Come solo or bring a friend — most people show up on their own and quickly find a group to play with.
