Geek & Sundry, publishers of the YouTube series TableTop, has announced the second annual International TableTop Day, Saturday April 5^th, 2014.

TableTop features actor Wil Wheaton and a variety of celebrity guests playing hobby board games, teaching the audience – and sometimes the players – as they go. Given the similarity to our own efforts to teach people hobby board games, you can imagine we’re big fans of this show.

With International TableTop Day, Geek & Sundry takes their show on the road and invites fans to get out and spend the day playing board games. Their mission? To remind us to spend more time with our friends and family by playing board games together. That sounds an awful lot like what we do here at Ravenwood Castle!

Events are being organized around the world, from small groups of friends getting together in someone’s family room, to large gatherings at venues such as game stores. And castles. Or at least one castle. We’re joining the fun again this year with our own event: the Knights of the Round TableTop Day!

So on Saturday April 5th, come on out to Ravenwood Castle, bring a friend (or three!) and celebrate International TableTop Day with us. This is a non-ticketed event, our doors will be open to the public from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Saturday. Enjoy a day of board games with old friends and new. Better yet, reserve a room and enjoy an entire weekend of games!

In the meantime, be sure to check out a few episodes of TableTop.  You’ll be glad you did.
