Sorry planeswalkers, we have to cancel our weekly Magic Monday tonight, March 6th. Make plans to come out next Monday for casual commander or the following Monday, March 20th, for the next Draft and a Drink. See you then!

Sorry, but due to weather related staffing shortage, we are going to have to close early today. We are shutting down at 4 pm. Magic Monday is cancelled. Forecast looks to improve from here on out – thanks for your patience and understanding!

Due to some conditions outside of our control, we are going to have to postpone Lord of the Rings Trivia and Solforge Fusion Launch Event that were scheduled to happen this week. We have plans to bring them both back in the near future – so keep an eye out on the Game Point calendar as we update it for November and December throughout this week. Thanks for your understanding and Game On!

It seems like lately every good board game inevitably gets an expansion to add more content to the game. Game Point has taken a page from that trend and is proud to announce our newest expansion, Game Point – A Game Store. It’s been almost five years since our board game cafe launched in the Five Points neighborhood and we thought it was about time to spread our particular brand of board game love to other parts of the city.

So, starting Saturday, October 22, Game Point – A Game Store, will launch in Hillsboro Village (1804 21st Avenue South to be exact). We have been hard at work creating a fun retail space to complement our great play space in East Nashville. We can’t wait for you to visit – to start, we will be open Thursday to Sunday each week (10 am to 4 pm on Thursday, 10 am – 6 pm the rest of the weekend). Thanks for the past five years – here’s to another five of helping great gaming to happen all over Nashville!

Tuesday evenings at Game Point we have traditionally hosted a series of game specific events – chess night, word games, etc. Then a few months ago, we launched Game Point Game Night on the last Tuesday of the month. Game Point Game Night was a chance to come on out to Game Point if you were looking to play some games but didn’t have a group of people that wanted to come out with you – a way to meet new people and play some games. It’s been a blast – we’ve played things from all over the gaming spectrum – party games like Medium and Long Shot the Dice Game, word games like Letter Jam, strategy games like Dominion, and new games like Art Decko and Akropolis. But why limit the fun to just the last Tuesday of the month?

Now EVERY Tuesday is Game Point Game Night – we are running them concurrently with the game focus for that Tuesday. So, for example, if you come out the second Tuesday and want to play Euchre or some other trick taking game, you can OR you can jump into any other type of game as well OR you can do both and swap back and forth. More options, more fun, more gaming – Tuesdays at Game Point are the place to be. So come on out, grab a drink or a snack, and play some games!

The annual Tomato Art Fest is happening in Nashville this weekend, August 12th and 13th. If you haven’t been before it is a fun celebration of music, art, and, of course, Tomatoes! Crowd levels in Five Points are always very high. Consequently, we won’t have the game library open until after 6 pm on Friday or Saturday to allow crowd levels to drop to a more manageable point. We also ask that people not come in with their own games until after that time as well. Trust us, you won’t want to be playing games before then – the humanity!

After six, come on in and play some games with us!
