TGP Dispatch: 3/31/26
Monthly Calendar for The Gathering Place in Google Sheets
It’s the last day of March, spring is in full swing, and The Gathering Place is getting ready for a brand-new month replete with tournaments, new releases, shop events and more. If you haven’t checked out the “April at TGP” post yet, now is the time to do so!
Before we get to the rest of today’s post, here’s what’s happening this week:
- Monthly D&D Learn to Play session at TGP / Wednesday at 6:00 p.m.
- Take your first steps into the world of D&D with a guided session led by our own Ben Creed!
- Girlypop Magic Commander Night / Thursday at 6:00 p.m.
- Come play Magic in a femme-forward, highly inclusive, overwhelmingly welcoming environment. Girlypop has quickly become one of the biggest things running monthly at TGP!
- Old School Thursday (MTG ’93-’94) / Thursday at 7:30 p.m.
- It literally is your grandpa’s Magic, and it’s really cool and fun
- MTG FNM Draft: Theros Beyond Death / Friday at 7:00 p.m.
- It’s all Greek to everybody this Friday, as our Draft heads to Theros for some Heroic Age action
- cEDH Invitational Tournament / Saturday at 12:00 p.m.
- You’ve heard about it quite a bit, expect this to be a BIG tournament. It’s a qualifier for the Black Lotus Invitational, this Saturday’s prize pool includes a Beta Wheel put up by TGP, and the competition is looking fierce.
- D&D Combat Arena Session / Sunday at 1:00 p.m.
- A new addition to the TGP lineup, Sunday sessions are combat-focused, crunchy D&D! There’s a six-player cap per DM and registration is in-person only.
This is the last time you’ll hear about the April cEDH Invitational because it’s this Saturday, but one last time: there’s a guaranteed Beta Wheel in the prize pool. If you’d like to sign up on TopDeck, click here. You have have noticed we’ve taken all other Saturday events off the calendar for 4/4 — that’s because preregistration for this cEDH tournament would suggest we’re not gonna have a whole lot of spare space at the shop. If you want to come hang out at TGP, plan for that amount of attendance. Come grab a drink, pick up some cards, crack some packs, hang at the bar — but don’t plan on being able to secure a six-top to play Catan.
The TGP online store continues to be added to, with more inventory now than ever before. Precons, singles, higher-end MTG, there’s so much in there these days. Go give it a look!
Next week’s schedule is looking stacked, as well! Obviously, all the event information and listings are on the TGP Events Page and calendar, but now’s a great time to consider signing up formally for the MTG Modern RCQ or next Sunday’s MTG Team Trios Tournament!
MTG Modern RCQ Preregistration
MTG Team Trios (Premodern, Legacy, Vintage) Tournament Preregistration
(signups on the day obviously still welcome, but it can be nice to have a spot secured in advance!)
That about wraps it up for this week! Secrets of Strixhaven comes out real soon, April is set to be a fun month at The Gathering Place, and we’re excited to host so many great events for a great community. See you around!
