Are you a board game enthusiast, casual player, or curious to try out the hobby? The Card & Trinket is happy to recommend The B.I.G. Weekend! A 3-day social gaming weekend held annually in the city of Bendigo, Victoria.
What is The B.I.G. Weekend?
The B.I.G. Weekend is an annual 3-day board gaming event held in Bendigo, Victoria. Run by Bendigo Indoor Gamers, the event aims to provide a family-friendly environment where everyone can come along and enjoy some tabletop games and share in some fun and laughter. Whether you are bringing along your favourite game to teach others, or are wanting to try something you haven’t played yet, B.I.G. Inc. have you covered!
What can I expect?
Attendees are able to enjoy great food and drink at the host location (The Bendigo Club) and have access to the board game library. The board game library lets you grab a game and play it straight away, with friends new or known. You can also expand your collection with pop-up board game vendors during the event. Enjoy lucky door prizes and other giveaways along with other surprises the organisers might cook up. But overall, come along, play a bunch of games, meet new friends, and have a great time!
