Hey everyone!

Thanks for all the helpful feedback and also voting for your preferred day!

We’re starting Monday Tabletop & Nerd Night at AQ Lounge in Leicester, ( AQ lounge 24a Belgrave gate LE13GP, closest parking is next door in euro carpark Mansfield street or there is free parking to the rear)

This will be every week from 5pm until late, and we’re looking to build a regular community.

The idea is simple bring whatever you’re into:
Warhammer 40K / Age of Sigmar
Magic: The Gathering
Board games
D&D and other RPGs
Miniature painting
Etc
(Pretty much any tabletop game)

If you’ve been looking for a place to get games in, meet new players, or just hang out with other nerds after work, we’d love to have you.

We’ll have plenty of table space, plus food, drinks, arcade games and pool if you fancy taking
a break between games.

We will have a game pass of £5 which gives you access to the room one free soft drink and unlimited pool for the whole night.

Just bring your game and enjoy the evening.
If there’s enough interest, we’ll also start running MTG Commander nights, painting sessions, leagues and tournaments.
Who’s interested, and what would you bring?

The response to our first post has been amazing thank you to everyone who’s shown interest!

We’re now planning AQ Gaming Social, a weekly evening where gamers of all kinds can meet at one location.

Whether you’re into:
⚔️ Warhammer 40K
🛡️ Age of Sigmar
🎯 Kill Team
🐉 Dungeons & Dragons
🃏 Magic: The Gathering
✨ Disney Lorcana
⚡ Pokémon TCG
🎲 Board Games
🎨 Painting & Hobby

Or just fancy a burger, a drink and a game of pool while hanging out with your friend, we’d love to have you.

The plan so far:

- Dedicated gaming tables
- Fresh food served all evening
- Drinks available
- Pool tables
- Friendly community for beginners and veterans
We’ve already had people register their interest, but before we lock everything in…

We need your help.

We’ve just opened AQ Lounge in Leicester, and we’re looking to start regular Warhammer, Age of Sigmar, Kill Team, D&D, MTG, and other tabletop gaming nights.

We’ve got plenty of space and are putting together dedicated gaming tables, with plans for:

⚔️ Casual gaming nights

🏆 Friendly leagues and tournaments

🎨 Painting & hobby evenings

🎲 D&D sessions

🍔 Food and drinks available all evening

🎱 Pool table if you fancy a break between games

🥤 Includes one free soft drink

🎱 Plus free pool while you’re here

Our aim isn’t just to provide tables it’s to build a welcoming community where people can find opponents, make friends, and have a regular place to play.
Additionally we want an environment where partners and spouses can come be part of the experience but not necessarily feel bored so there’s other things to do.

Whether you’re a veteran with multiple armies or you’ve just bought your first Combat Patrol, you’re welcome.
We’re based in Leicester city centre, so it’s easy to get to.

A few questions:
- What game systems would you like to see supported first?
- What would make you choose one venue over another?
- Would weekday evenings or weekends work better for you?

If there’s enough interest, we’ll get our first gaming night organised over the next couple of weeks.
Hope to see some of you there!
