QUGS meets on Mondays, starting at 5:00pm for board games. In addition, we meet at 6:30pm on Thursdays for a Magic: The Gathering draft. Full details can be found on our website. Barring exams, Christmas or natural disaster, QUGS meetings are always on.
Additionally, QUGS hosts a Semi-Annual Twilight Imperium Championship on a public holiday each semester. The winner receives a trophy to keep until the next Championship, and gets immortalised on the QUGS website.

Our boards game events tend to be in the Heath Room during the semester, and in the Kingham Room during holidays (both in the UQU Complex), however, this can change due to exams, other bookings etc. Up to date venues can be found on the calendar on the QUGS website, on the Facebook events, or in the weekly members’ emails.

Membership is $5. This allows you to attend any and all board game event on Monday nights. These events also occasionally have free pizza for QUGS members. You will also get a QUGS membership card, which provides discounts to various gaming retails around Brisbane.
The Magic: The Gathering draft requires three booster packs per player, usually of the current set. These can be purchased for $5 each on the night, or you can provide your own. You will, however, get to keep all cards you draft on the night. QUGS provides basic lands.
