Some of our travelling guests arrive well before the main event and stay overnight. As it make sense to gather, play and spend the evening together while we are all in the neighbourhood, we decided to organise side events for Friday 3rd, and Saturday October 4th. The side events are casual, entry is free. We found a Magic friendly venue near Croy that has gladly agreed to host us:

De Barkeet specialises in drinks • bites • games. They have pinball machines, arcardes, air hockey, karaoke. But most importantly: During our Castle Cup weekend, they reserve tables for us to play Magic!
