The West Australian Boardgaming Association

The West Australian Boardgaming Association is a not-for-profit collective of gamers who promote board games, and card games, through a range of public events in Western Australia. (We have recently incorporated and our official rules of membership are available.)

This is our Guild, where we discuss upcoming events, how to improve our meetings and how to promote boardgaming in Western Australia.

Our aims are:

• The promotion of boardgames in the West Australian community.
• The provision of regular game playing events at community venues.

Yearly membership is $5.00 which entitles you to:

• 10% Discount at Tactics in London Court
• Voting rights at annual meetings

Group Discounts For Large Orders

WABGA Members also qualify for 20% off at Milsims when we place a bulk order. Group Order details are described in Instructions For Placing Bulk Game Orders. Geekmail egfperth if you have any questions.

Games For Sale Or Trade

Use Games for Sale/Trade to see what members have available for sale and/or trade. Feel free to add items to the list (and remove them when no longer available). Be aware however that this is not an invitation to sell new games at meets – for more discussion see Selling Games at EGF.

Play Online

Many of our members play boardgames online. See Gaming Online with Perth Eurogamers to find out more.

WABGA's main event is the Perth EuroGamesFest. We meet on the second Saturday of each month to play boardgames in Perth, Western Australia. We play all kinds of games, but tend toward those known as 'Eurogames'.

You can see a list of all the games we have played so far.

Getting There

Please see the Eurogamesfest Location Map.

The most convenient public transport is bus service 27 or 28 (timetable Western 33). The 28 will bring you closer, but the 27 may be more convenient. Both buses run every hour, in both directions, between Claremont Station and East Perth. To be at the EGF from the very beginning:

• From the east, catch the 27 that leaves East Perth at 10:15, or the 28 that leaves East Perth at 10:00 and passes Perth Station at around 10:08.
• From the west, catch the 27 that leaves Claremont Station at 10:30.

You may wish to consult the full timetables: from Perth to Claremont; from Claremont to Perth; full timetable (Western 33).

Alternatively if you need a lift or if you can provide a lift, leave a message in the thread Getting There (Car Pooling/Lifts).

We look forward to seeing you there!
