🔔 The clock is ticking...

A demon walks among the townsfolk, and only you can stop them.

Join host Nathan Y at 6:30 PM for a free Learn to Play event for Blood on the Clocktower, the wildly popular game of bluffing, deduction, and storytelling. Every player has a role, every conversation matters, and even death isn't the end of the game.

No entry fee, no experience required—just come ready to lie, investigate, accuse, and survive.

On June 12th, 2026, Magic Presents: Pride returns to The Dork Den for a celebration of Pride with a special Commander event! At this event, you'll play Commander against your fellow attendees. And in the spirit of Pride, every commander has partner! Craft a prismatically powerful deck or highlight your Magic OTP.

To commemorate the event, Magic Presents: Pride participants will receive a traditional foil Gilded Lotus promo card, while supplies last, featuring artwork by Merlin G.G. This illustration depicts the Gruulfriends, Chandra and Nissa, in a peaceful, tender moment. We love this promo card, and we think you will, too.

We have an additional surprise in store for Magic Presents: Pride attendees. As a special thank you, players will receive an enamel pin depicting Merlin G.G's Gilded Lotus while supplies last. You can give the pin to someone special in your life or simply wear it with, well, pride! We'll have more to share about this pin closer to the event.

All of this is in addition to the normal 2 booster packs for playing plus 2 packs to each pod winner! The fun kicks off at 7pm.
