One of the best aspects of the tabletop hobby is the people in it and the sense of community within it. A group of Canadian publishers and developers has joined forces to create a new gaming event that celebrates their common connections with Play The North:
Canadian publishers are joining forces to celebrate the
imagination and creativity in board games from our true northern home.
Play The North is a multi-day gaming event spread throughout the year and throughout the country. The intention is to encourage play and to highlight some of the incredibly talented designers, artists, and publishers that Canada has to offer. Play The North will connect Canadian board game retailers and players with Canadian publishers. The goal of the events is to support local creators, gamers, and retailers through curated events, demos, and other programming.
Play The North is a joint initiative founded by KTBG, Burnt Island Games, Roxley Games, Steeped Games, Inside Up Games, Off The Page Games, and Pe Metawe Games. We are looking to grow, adding new partners and collaborators over time. Follow Play The North on Facebook and Instagram.
The first Play The North event will be at Pe Metawe Games in Edmonton, Alberta September 25-27. Stay tuned for more details and announcements of upcoming events.
