Twin Cities Tabletop Games Expo

Event Submission Information

Events are scheduled time windows for a specific activity that attendees can sign up to participate in. Events can be submitted by anyone but must be approved by TTGX, and can be anything from a scheduled play of a board game, to whatever creative idea you think people would like to participate in (ideally still boardgame related).

Event Host Policy

We're seeking Game Masters (GMs) to run events. By submitting an event, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to our Event Host policy.

GMs have the option to run events as a bystander or play in their own event. If the event sells out and the GM has not purchased a ticket to reserve their seat they are expected to participate as a GM only.

As a GM you agree to tidy your event space before you leave and to vacate it in advance of the next event so they may set up.

Perks

TTGX offers free badge(s) to Event Hosts who run at least 32 player-hours’ worth of events to recognize the time and effort that goes into hosting events.

Player-hours are calculated as maximum player seats listed × scheduled event duration (in hours). The Event Host does not count as a player seat.

For example: running 8 hours of 4 player games would be 32 player-hours and earn a free badge.

More detailed information can be found in the Event Host policy.
