Whether you’ve played a handful of times or you’re ready to sharpen your strategy, this is your space to sit down, settle in, and play. No hosting. No coordinating. No pressure to bring a group.
Just show up, bring your card, we’ll take care of the rest.

-
A reserved seat at the table (no scrambling for players!)
Tiles, racks, dice, and all the setup taken care of

Absolutely. The more, the merrier! Open Play is a great way to introduce Mahjong to your circle.

Not at all. Come when it fits your schedule. Use a drop-in or grab a punch pass for the nights that work best for you.

No problem! Just add your name to the Waitlist, and we’ll reach out as soon as a seat opens up. Waitlist spots are offered in the order they’re received, so be sure to keep an eye on your inbox. Once a spot becomes available, we’ll need to hear back quickly to confirm your seat before it’s offered to the next player.
