If you are interested in joining the BGB, please contact us.

Yes. BGB is an international association and English is the language used in our meetings, communications, and events.

Yes, there is a membership fee. The funds are necessary to cover room rental, events, and operational costs. The membership fees are the only source of income for BGB.

The membership fee is 8 CHF per month per person, paid annually. As a member, you are entitled to participate in any event, tournament, or contest that we organize. You can also borrow any game from the BoardGameBasel game library (called the Pool of Games) for free, returning it within the next two sessions. Additionally, you have access to Spielbox magazines, and, upon request, you can keep the promotional items included. Of course, you’re also welcome to attend all our meetings to play new games and meet interesting, friendly people.

Not immediately. There is a short process where we first meet online to explain how BGB operates and answer any questions you may have. Afterward, we can schedule a session for you to attend, completely free of charge. If you are interested contact us.
