Tabletop meets are special mini-sized meets that focus on all things tabletop gaming. All things relating to trading card games, roleplaying games, wargaming, and board games are welcome, and it’s a great way of meeting furries in a quieter, more structured environment.
The next tabletop meet is on Sunday, 9th November 2025 at Excelsior, from noon until 5pm.
Join our Discord or Telegram groups for more information on upcoming tabletop meets.
The games
A variety of games will be available for free play, from casual games like Uno to cult classics like Ticket to Ride. Dungeons & Dragons and Warhammer may also be available, conditional on availability.
If you’re not a seasoned tabletop gamer, most games will have someone available to explain the rules and help you learn how to play.
Feel free to bring:
- Board games
- Card games
- Trading card game decks
- Wargaming and TTRPG miniatures
- Handheld games consoles (however, you are not allowed to charge these at Excelsior)
Please don’t bring:
- Games with explicit themes or content
- Beyblades, Bakugan, or other ‘battle’ games
- Large electronics
Differences from furmeets
Tabletop meets still let you hang out with your fellow furries, but there are a few differences:
- Tabletop meets are smaller and centred around a particular social activity. If you’re not planning to play games, this isn’t for you.
- Fursuiting, including the wearing of tails, is not allowed. Other furry accessories are fine, however.
- Alcohol is strictly forbidden inside of the venue.
Different people organise the tabletop meets than the regular furmeets, though some BristolFurs staff members will typically be present.
