Upcoming Events
OrcaCon
We are a cozy inclusive tabletop games convention with a focus in diversity, inclusion, and accessibility. We highlight marginalized voices in tabletop games, including people of color, the LGBTQ+ community & people with disabilities. We strive to create a welcome and inclusive environment for new and seasoned players. Join us for a weekend of your favorite board games, card games, role playing games, miniatures games, and more!
GeekGirlCon
GeekGirlCon’s largest event is a two-day convention that gives female geeks and their supporters the opportunity to build a community, share facts and fandom, and learn how they can help promote the role of women and other underrepresented groups in geek culture.
PAX West
PAX West is a celebration of gaming and gaming culture featuring thought-provoking panels, a massive expo hall filled with the best publishers and studios, new game demos, musical performances, tournaments, and a community experience unlike any other.
DragonFlight GameCon
We have held the Dragonflight GameCon every year since 1980 (with the exception of 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic).
The convention is funded by fees paid by participants and donations. Our non-profit structure and 100% volunteer-run operation maximizes the fun you get out of every dollar. So explore our pages to see what you might enjoy playing, what you might enjoy running, or what you might enjoy volunteering to help with. And may the dice roll ever in your favor!
GenCon 2024
Gen Con Indy 2024 4-day and single-day badges will be available for purchase beginning at noon Eastern on February 11. The convention will continue to offer thousands of ticketed in-person events, a sold-out Exhibit Hall, and an outdoor Block Party featuring the Sun King Beer Garden, dozens of food trucks, and live entertainment.
Go Play NW 2024
Join us for 3 days of indie-focused tabletop gaming in Seattle, Washington. Make new friends; play new games!
MTG Card Drive to Benefit MagiKids!
Seattle and Bellevue Area Gaming Friends- we have a special project for you!
MTG Card Drive to Benefit Magikids!
Got Bulk? We’re calling on our fellow MTG fans to raid your card stash and donate any extra cards to benefit our nonprofit partner, Magikids. We want to support their effort to turn unused Magic cards into learning and fun for kids across the US.
Gamers Engaged will receive your donations in the Seattle/Bellevue area at MoxBoardingHouse Seattle and Bellevue, IN PERSON ONLY (for now)- this is a pilot program. We hope this will open up other mail-in opportunities in the future.
Gamers Engaged has assembled a team of volunteers to take your #MagicCard donations and build kits for MagiKids to distribute to Magic clubs around the country!
How to donate: Drop off your cards at Mox Seattle or Mox Bellevue, label the box
or bag as “Card Donation for MagiKids”
Card Drive Dates: January 26th - February 9th
We hope this opportunity motivates you to search your library, graveyard, hand, and battlefield for cards you can part with. Even small donations add up to make a major difference for these kids. Together, we can show what the gaming community is really made of.
If you are outside of the Pacific Northwest region and want to participate in this endeavor, you can follow the prompts to mail your bulk cards directly to Magikids in Minnesota! Details here.
Mox Boarding House- WA Giving Trees!
'Tis the season for giving and kindness, and our good friends at Mox Boarding House are getting in the spirit!
The Mox Giving Tree returns to the Bellevue and Ballard locations for the 11th year. For the 2023 holiday season, Mox is partnering with Ryther, to support their therapeutic services for young people who are struggling emotionally and behaviorally so they may find a path to healing and hope.
What is The Giving Tree?
The Giving Tree is an annual program hosted by Mox Boarding House - with help from Gamers Engaged Founder Lyla Ross - to support local non-profits' fantastic and essential work in our community. 2023 marks the 11th anniversary of The Giving Tree, and while the program has grown and changed over the years, the one constant has been the generosity fans and friends of Mox and Gamers Engaged have shown every holiday season. Thank you to everyone who has donated, volunteered, or even just shared the message. We couldn't do it without you!
Details:
From Friday, November 25th to Saturday, December 31st, Mox Boarding House Seattle and Mox Boarding House Bellevue will have trees filled with gift tags, each of which will feature an item and an age range. These tags will be for games and accessories that will be used to build out a games library for therapeutic and community-building work with the young people supported by Ryther's therapeutic services.
As a thank you for your donation at the register or through purchasing a game for the library, Mox will be offering you a 20% off Thank You coupon. Mox will also be matching donations made through the registers for each store, up to $1500!
