Requesting a game at a venue

Ask to play a specific game at a venue, gather interest from others, and let a partner schedule it.

  1. Posting a request
  2. Gathering interest

Can't find the game you want on the calendar? Post a request to play. It signals demand to a venue and lets other members add their interest — a great way to get a game off the ground without hosting it yourself.

An open request. Others add their interest, which is what makes it happen.

Venues you can name in a request. Some are free to book; others charge by the hour.

Posting a request

  1. Open Requests

    Go to Requests → Request a game.

  2. Say what you want to play

    Pick a game from the catalog (or a general activity), add a title, a preferred timeframe, and how many players you're hoping for.

  3. Choose a venue — or leave it open

    Target a specific partner venue to send it to their queue, or leave it open to any venue for any partner to pick up. An open request can name a city or area, so venues in that city see it as near them. Never put an address there.

Gathering interest

Your request appears on the board for others to see. Anyone can tap I'm interested to add a +1 — the more interest, the more likely a venue schedules it.
