Commander / EDH Nights at TGP
What began with Adam Staley and Sheldon Menery decades ago as a fun way to play off-beat Magic has, over time, become the most popular way to play MTG. Commander, or Elder Dragon Highlander (EDH) if you’ve been around the block a few times, is the Magic: The Gathering format to beat, these days. Everybody plays it, it’s fun, it’s social, it has potential to be absolutely insane in all the best ways. For anyone who needs a primer, here’s one from Wizards.
Commander Nights at The Gathering place are three times a week: Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 p.m. and Saturdays at 3:00 p.m.
Make sure to check in on the TGP Event Calendar to see what else is happening on any given day! Tournaments and such often happen on Saturdays, prerelease weekends can be a little packed, and it’s worth taking a look if you’re expecting to have space for large groups. That said, TGP does have a whole lot of tables and a whole lot of space.
Commander Meetups / Nights have free entry, free promos / prize support for all pods, so come by to jam some casual (or competitive, depending on the pod! remember, communication is part of the game!) MTG Commander, hang with your friends, make new friends, all of the above! (if you’re looking for a group / pod to play with, the TGP Discord is an excellent resource)
MTG Friday Night Magic Draft
Since 1996, Friday Night Magic has been a part of MTG’s community fabric. From the Pro Tour to the kitchen table, FNM is a huge part of how a whole lot of people play the game.
Every Friday, FNM at TGP kicks off at 7:00 with a draft of the latest Standard set TGP has in stock.
Beginning August 2026, FNM Draft at TGP will have an entry fee of $25 per player.
MTG Locals
Magic: The Gathering has no shortage of formats, fun ways to play, communities to contribute to and ways to get weird in your specific way. We’ve covered Commander and FNM on this page so far, so here’s the other MTG Locals you’ll find at The Gathering Place:
Modern Locals: Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.
Premodern Locals: Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.
Legacy Locals: Fridays at 7:00 p.m.
One Piece Locals
One Piece locals happen twice a week at The Gathering Place! Bandai’s high-seas TCG based on Oda’s rollicking saga of piracy and high-stakes high-seas tomfoolery has become one of the premier games played at TGP, so come play Constructed One Piece every Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday at 1:00 p.m. Come jam those decks with friends old and new!
$10 buy-in, entry back in the prize pool, converted directly into pack prizing to Top 3 (based on attendance) — also, promos for participation and tournament winner!
Gundam Locals
Bandai TCGs have another winner with the Gundam card game! If you’ve played One Piece, some elements may be familiar, but the Gundam TCG plays out a little differently than you might expect. Pilots, Mobile Suits, shields, bases, it’s fast and furious mech-battling action! Gundam Locals at TGP are every Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. — $10 buy in, entry back in the prize pool, pack prizing to Top 3 (based on attendance) number of rounds based on attendance — also, promos for participation and tournament winner!
Riftbound Nexus Night (Locals)
League of Legends has become a great deal more than a MOBA — from eSports audiences to Netflix flagship TV, it was only a matter of time before a TCG got in on the action. Riftbound is that TCG, and so far it seems like it’s living up to the hype! TGP hosts Riftbound locals every other Sunday at 1:00 p.m. (check the calendar to confirm dates!) and these Nexus Nights have started to go toe-to-toe with One Piece in terms of sheer attendance.
Prizes are most often offered in store credit at the moment, since Riftbound packs have been relatively hard to come by and we’d like to save as many as possible for folks to play the game. Check in on TGP socials for full schedules, prereleases, and everything else related to Riftbound at TGP!
Flesh and Blood Armory
Flesh and Blood is the one-one-one fighting game inspired TCG that’s found some real footing at The Gathering Place. The local FAB community is active, competitive and whole lot of fun. FAB Armory is the FNM equivalent: every Friday night at 7:30, FAB players gather at TGP for a recurring mix of casual and competitive gameplay.
Armory events are known for special prizes, cool promos and big swings for a TCG so relatively young. $10 buy-in per player, two packs per win, and more! What’s not to love about a card game with a format called “Ultimate Pit Fight”?
Sorcery: Contested Realm Locals
Sorcery: Contested Realm is a strategy-based TCG with a board constructed more akin to chess than a traditional TCG battlefield. Placement matters, along with resources and spells, and it’s a throwback to early card games in more ways than one! Gorgeous traditional art, wild chases, one type of booster pack, Sorcery is a great time for anyone who looks at these cards and goes “yeah, I be that game is pretty cool” — which, to be fair, is everybody!
Sorcery locals at TGP are every Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. and have a strong community organization component. Constructed or Draft, depending on what the people want and what’s in stock at the shop. $15 entry for Constructed, $25 entry for draft, pack-per-win prizing and bonus promos and prizes as we have them and depending on attendance.
The Gathering Place has a steady cohort of travelers, adventures and campaigners across all skill levels and more games than just D&D. The TTRPG community at TGP thrives in the TGP Discord server, but for anyone looking to start their journeys we offer a couple curated events that don’t require hammering out specific details with a playgroup before even showing up for the first session.
D&D Learn to Play
The first Wednesday of each month, TGP DM extraordinaire Kelly Trusdell will be your guide as you take your first steps into the Forgotten Realms.
The Learn to Play session starts at 6:00 p.m. and players don’t have to provide anything but themselves. Well, themselves and also a general openness, a will to learn and the expectation that role playing might feel a little goofy at first — but, the knowledge that the more you lean into it the more fun you’ll have.
If you’ve always been D&D curious, if you’ve seen it portrayed in popular media, if you’ve been watching actual play shows or listening to podcasts like Dimension 20 or Critical Role, this is your opportunity to start your own story!
D&D One-Shot Campaign(s)
Thursdays are D&D one-shots at TGP! Starting at 6:00 p.m. and open to all, these free events welcome players of all experience levels, figurative and literal. Our grab bag of Dungeon Masters, our colorful rotating cast, is here to guide you through a one-shot session where you can play something new or continue your own anthology with your character. If you don’t have a character, you can show up and make one! Just arrive a little early to allow the extra time for that. Check in on the TGP Discord for details and introductions, and sign up day-of on the in-store event sheet!
D&D Combat Arena
Sundays at The Gathering Place are leveling up! Thanks to the wonderful work our DMs do, we’re delighted to announce something new: combat-focused D&D on the first and last Sunday of each month!
Sessions start at 2:00 p.m. and are weekly combat-focused one-shots. Arenas, gauntlets, anime tournament arcs, think fist meeting face and blade meeting bone. Crunchy combat with real consequences, where nobody’s safe and everything is fair game!
There will be a physical sign-up sheet at the bar on the first and last Sunday of each month, and each DM running a combat session will have a six-person limit for their table. Spots are first-come, first-served. Come with a Level 3 character prepared, or show up a bit early to roll up a new one alongside your DM and other players.
See you there, brave adventurers!
