At InPubEvents we’ve carefully curated a range of board games and event formats designed to run for around 2-3 hours, giving groups a complete session without overstaying a table.

Our recommended format balances quick-to-learn games for newcomers with deeper strategy titles for regulars, keeping tables full and engaged throughout the night. A number of our games — such as Monopoly Deal, Monopoly Go, Uno, and Chess — are perfectly suited to shorter 20-30 minute rounds, letting players drop in or out as they please without disrupting the wider session. This flexibility means tables stay active even as players come and go for drinks, food, or to mingle.

This structure increases player enjoyment and time at the table, which in turn increases dwell time in your venue, leading to a much higher potential revenue for your business.

It’s a mutually beneficial relationship: players get a relaxed, flexible evening, and the pub gets more opportunity to earn revenue.
