Open Days at Barnsley Association of Tabletop Gamers!
Every year, we open our doors to welcome new faces, show off our space, and celebrate the tabletop gaming community in Barnsley. Whether you’re a seasoned gamer or just curious, our Open Day events are the perfect opportunity to explore what we do and meet our members.
The first three months are £10.00 to give us a try and make sure we're the right fit. After that, it goes up to the full membership of £22.50.
We'd prefer if you could pay using the 'Debit or Credit Card' button below rather than the PayPal button as the fees for us are less, meaning more money goes into the club.
When’s the Next One?
