Held for the first time in Thailand, the festival will gather the latest board games in the region; invite participants to test the newest games created by leading publishers and creators; and present the "After Play" workshop arranged by the Institute of Board Game for Learning.
This is also an opportunity to rub shoulders with some of Asia's most famous board game publishers and designers; and meet and greet 6 Channel Games, a top Japanese board game design team.
The highlight will be a series of talks with five Asian board game designers who will be sharing the board game scene in their countries and how they've designed and brought their games to the local and global markets.
They include Daryl Chow, a Singaporean award-wining board game designer; Smoox Chen, an active gamer from Taiwan; Xiu Hong Eu, a passionate gamer from Malaysia; Thitinan Ngamsom, a Thai designer famous for his miniature board games; and Khanat Sadomwattana, another Thai designer recognised for his abstract strategy board game style.
There will also be an auction of a rare collection of board games on Saturday, while visitors will have a chance to win prizes in a lucky draw on both days.
There is no admission fee but advanced registrations can be made via forms.gle/2ixEMdhVihAEPA6UA to win a free board game. TK Park is on the 8th floor of CentralWorld, Ratchadamri Road.
