See all- Almost-the-Weekend Board Game NightLost Friend Brewing Company, Colorado Springs , CO
Come on out to Lost Friend Brewing for a casual evening of playing light board games with good beer & good food! There’s no limit on number of people, so feel free to bring along anybody you like. This is also a dog-friendly brewery, so your pups are welcome too. We may split into multiple gaming tables if necessary.
Also bring your games! We typically play fun & easy party games with rules that can easily be explained in under a few minutes and don’t last longer than an hour. The brewery also has a decent library of party games on their shelves too, so lots of options. Hope to see you there!

But they do have a lot of parking available too. Bring cash because a lot of vendors only accept cash. But some do accept card. It is a good idea to buy tickets ahead of time. Lots of walking so bring good shoes. Rain or shine event. This event is going on all summer starting June 14th and goes until August 3rd, so you can come other days too. They are themed so you can experience it with a different theme each weekend. Check out photos for the themes. Let’s have some fun on a Sunday.
Ps. Go to King Soupers to get cheaper tickets than in person or online. But you can do any of the 3 purchase options because the price is about the same.
