Our free-of-charge meet-up in the Black Sheep Pub on Capel Street. This is a casual meet up for people who want to play boardgames. Lots of people bring plenty of games and rules will always be explained so don't worry if you're new to the hobby and you don't have anything to bring along or think you won't know how to play. The meet-up runs for the whole day but late comers always welcome, you just may have to wait a little for a game to open up but games will be starting and ending throughout the day. **IMPORTANT!** **The meet up is free of charge but we do ask that people support the bar by buying food and/or drink. The bar is very accommodating to us and it's important that we support them in return. Bringing in outside food or drink is completely unacceptable.** Check out the comments below where people will say what games they are bringing and express your interest in joining if interested. Any questions contact either of the organisers Gavin or Stephen.

Join us for a big-screen screening of one of the most influential films in cinema history. The Graduate (1967), directed by Mike Nichols, didn’t just win the Academy Award for Best Director — it redefined what modern filmmaking could look like. Sharp, subversive, and quietly hilarious, it captured a generation’s unease with adulthood, conformity, and expectations, all set to an iconic Simon & Garfunkel soundtrack. More than five decades on, it still feels fresh, bold, and uncomfortably relatable — a true awards-season heavyweight that set a new standard for storytelling and style. 📍 We’ll meet at 7:00 p.m. in the Cineworld lobby and head in together. 🎟️ My seat is F7. See you there — popcorn optional, opinions mandatory.

Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination. 🎭 **This week's facilitators:** * 👺 **Scott** guiding Meiji-era monster hunters through the finale of *Yokai Hunters Society*. The Society is under attack! The identities of many hunters have been leaked by a mole, and The Black Lotus have jumped on the opportunity, kidnapping or killing anyone they find. You are ones of the lucky few to remain anonymous; you must skulk your way through the streets of Kyoto and put an end to this gang of criminals once and for all. But be careful, there are reports that they now have control over the yokai themselves... * 👽 **Axel** with another installment of the sci-fi horror game, *Mothership*. In the dark reaches of the Vagnerov Outback, at the edge of human-settled space, missing persons are a regrettable fact of life, and some remain missing despite the best efforts of government and corporate authorities, and freelance contractors such as Spinward Solutions. Will this case be any different? Will it end well or in horror? Play and find out... * 🙊**Silvia** with a secret bonus game! *** Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).

We'll play board games at the [Land-Grant Brewing Company](https://landgrantbrewing.com/). They have multiple [food trucks](https://landgrantbrewing.com/food/) on Sundays. Ray Ray's also has coffee, and the brewery has free water (and Jeni's ice cream). You can come late or leave early. Please just sign up so I know to expect you. **Notes on Parking** * You'll (probably) have to park on the street, but street parking is free on Sundays. * There are [parking garages](https://landgrantbrewing.com/parking/) a little farther away if you want. These are obviously not free, though. * There is a [lot next door](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B057'26.0%22N+83%C2%B000'40.9%22W/@39.957211,-83.0119921,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m12!1m7!3m6!1s0x88388f3efd89238b:0xc139207386232411!2sLand-Grant+Brewing+Company!8m2!3d39.9577613!4d-83.011426!16s%2Fg%2F1pzt7t9df!3m3!8m2!3d39.957211!4d-83.011347?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyMS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D) to the brewery that you're allowed to park in, but it is not free. I've never parked there, so I don't know anything about rates. (I'm told though that if you eat at Milo's Deli next door to this lot that Milo's will stamp your parking so it's free.) * You're going to see odd signs on [Lucas St](https://www.google.com/maps/place/39%C2%B057'26.1%22N+83%C2%B000'40.3%22W/@39.957256,-83.0124134,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m10!1m5!3m4!2zMznCsDU3JzI4LjgiTiA4M8KwMDAnNDEuNSJX!8m2!3d39.957993!4d-83.011536!3m3!8m2!3d39.957256!4d-83.011197?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI2MDEyMS4wIKXMDSoKLDEwMDc5MjA3MUgBUAM%3D) (saying it's a "private street") that will lead you to believe you're not allowed to park there, but you actually are. * Columbus parking cops literally do not work on Sundays. This means that, even if you're driving a non-EV, you can park in the EV spots near the brewery. **Games** I do bring many games, but please bring some of your own as well.
