We host free, unpredictable events in English (except Bingo—it’s in Danish and costs a little).

The best way to stay updated? Follow us on Facebook event calendar! That’s where we post all our events. We have 400+ a year!

Here’s a taste of what might be happening when you walk in:

🧠 Quizzes Not about board games. Not easy. Bring your brain. Win gift cards. Cry a little inside.

🍳 Bingo Breakfast (Sign-up & ticket required!) Bingo + breakfast = Sunday magic. For 125 kr you get croissants, eggs, fruit, yoghurt, juice, coffee… and 5 bingo cards. Winners take home sweet swag and board game prizes. In Danish, but the breakfast is bilingual.

🤝 Matchups Come alone or bring a friend — we’ll set you up with a group and some simple games. Perfect for humans new to Copenhagen, or to board games (or to both).

🎯 Let’s Play Every time, one featured game. Could be a classic, a weirdo, or something that teaches you Danish. Come for the game, stay for the confused bonding.

🧪 Testing Tuesdays Board game designers crash the café with their prototypes. Try them before they’re famous (or banned). Everyone welcome, feedback optional.

🧠 Serious Sundays Heavy games. Long games. Big brain energy. Do not attempt unless you’ve read the rulebook twice. You’ve been warned.

🏁 Bastard to Go If you want to get some of our Gurus with a pile of games to your event outside the café, please read more at https://bastardcafe.dk/gamesngurus-to-go and contact us from there. We have experience of attending festivals, opening parties, football celebrations and more. We can bring the fun to you!

🌈 Extra Weird Stuff Sometimes we pair beer with board games. Sometimes we get real queer for Pride. Sometimes something happens that even we don’t understand.

Check our Facebook event page, seriously.
