**On Friday 8th May, we're excited to be hosting another unique edition of Friday night fun... our latest “Territories” Pub Race.** Like our other board game-inspired pub races, this live-action strategy game takes inspiration from the classic board game Risk, reimagined across 32 pubs throughout London. This team game is played on a virtual map and each pub is a territory on the map, that can be claimed or conquered ⚔️ **Over the evening, your mission is to build the biggest empire in 2 hours.** To claim one, you simply visit the pub as a team and have at least one person in your team buy a drink (soft drinks included). Every extra drink you buy will add yet more “troops” to your territory to help fortify it 🍻 This is crucial as if you fail to properly strengthen your territories - these can also be **conquered** (i.e. stolen) from other teams who visit the same pub and outnumber your troop numbers. Alongside the race - there will also be fun, themed challenges at each pub that you can complete to earn extra bonus troops for your garrison 📸 Some territories are worth more than others, and there are bonuses for controlling entire continents… so you’ll need to plan your route, pick your battles, and think like a pub-crawling warlord. At the end of the night, the team with the highest total **territory value** will be crowned champions 🏆 But of course, it’s not just about the game - the evening is also a chance to connect with loads of like-minded 20s and 30s, while enjoying an unforgettable start to the weekend. **\- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \-** **WHERE/WHEN** Meet Point - Gilt of Cain, Fen Court Garden, Hogarth Ct, EC3M 5DL ([https://maps.app.goo.gl/JAphAzeWvxusNT4v5](https://maps.app.goo.gl/JAphAzeWvxusNT4v5)) Closest Tube station: Fenchurch Street (5 min walk), Aldgate (10 min walk), Monument (10 min walk) Start Time - 6:45pm Finish time: 11:00pm \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- \- **JOIN THE COMMUNITY** Set up in November 2021, our community project was set up to help 20s and 30s in London meet, connect and build life-long friendships.

Wine Not? is a women-only gathering before the Balancers Saturday social. Most attendees come solo, so it’s an easy and welcoming place to meet people and settle in before the night gets busier. London can make meeting new people feel awkward, especially if you're coming alone. This early social creates a comfortable environment where you can chat, laugh, and get to know a few friendly faces first. Expect a relaxed atmosphere, a few light games, and plenty of time to connect naturally. **At 7.30 pm the main Balancers social begins**, and the room fills as over **150 people usually join the night**. Wine Not? naturally flows into the rest of the evening, so you’re welcome to stay and enjoy the full experience. Coming solo is completely normal. Our hosts will be there to help everyone feel comfortable, included, and connected from the start. **Check out our past events here:** **[https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/](https://www.instagram.com/_balancers/)** **Want to stay in the loop?

We’re bringing back Adult Field Day. Last year was a good mix of competition and just hanging out, so we’re doing it again with some new games mixed in. Think team-based challenges, simple races, and a few things inspired by game shows. You don’t need to be athletic. Most of the fun is just being part of a team and getting to know people you wouldn’t normally talk to. The goal isn’t really winning. It’s meeting people, laughing a bit, and leaving knowing a few more names than when you showed up. If you stick around after, we’ll have a potluck cookout. This is at a race and there is a race that night be sure to check it out $15 cash only after the race about 11:30 or so we’ll start partying by the bonfire. BYOB free camping or sleep sober up in your vehicle do not drink and drive!!
