Normally we meet every fourth Thursday and first Sunday of the month at THUISWageningen, the open living room at the city centre.

However due to the recent outbreak of the Corona Virus most events are cancelled until further notice.

There are no costs and no obligations, although you can always make a voluntary donation to Thuis and you are required to buy your own drinks at het Rad. You can follow us on Facebook, join the Facebook group, or join us on Discord to hear news about public sessions and weekends and arrange game sessions. If you want to be more involved with the Wageningen Board Gamers you can become a “Meeple”.
