MOBCON 2025

We're back baby! After the success of MOBCON 2024, we're back with another free, 12+ hours of tabletop gaming. MOBCON is our annual Open Day. We hire a hall with the capacity for 100 gamers and throw the doors open for everyone¹ to come and join in for free!

We're also back with the MOBCON features that you've come to expect: free entry, free parking, free tea, coffee and squash, break out room "cafe", the Bring&Buy, bookable demo tables, a great atmosphere, and 12+ hours of gaming with your old friends (and hopefully some new ones too)

If you’re curious about board games and other tabletop games, or if you’re already into the hobby and want to meet other like-minded folk, join us on Saturday October 25, 2025 for MOBCON 2025 and experience twelve+ hours of gaming and community (did we mention that it’s free?!)

¹ While we believe that tabletop gaming is for everyone, and we strive to be open and inclusive, we are not set up for the safeguarding of minors (we’re just too small an organisation at the moment). As a result, our events are open to all adults, while under-eighteens must be accompanied by a responsible adult, and under-sixteens may attend only by prior agreement with the organizers.

Book your FREE attendance and start using Aftergame to plan the games you want to play. Full details of the event can be found on our website https://boardgamers.wixsite.com/meepleofbasingstoke

A quick note about demos and playtests at MOBCON:
Meeple of Basingstoke fully supports all aspects of the tabletop gaming hobby, including the wonderful designers and publishers who provide us with the games that we love to play. However, MOBCON is a very small event and doesn't have the attendee numbers to provide a pool of people who are there to experience unreleased designs. We have a bookable demo table set aside for those who wish to get involvedbut we ask that designers refrain from running demos at other tables to avoid those awkward "surprise demo" moments.
