Big Games Night Out

25/10/2025

We rolled the dice, took a chance and knew it’d come out a winner! Tabletop TOOKOVER The Edge with so many games being played all night long! 🎲

On the stage, GIANT Octocube came to life, Doodles were Dashed, Bingo was called, we learnt how to play The Sims Boardgame and then things got a little strange with D&D. 👾✨

Certainly not your average boardgame night! 😉

Little Games Night Out was simply the best!

So much on-stage silliness went down, whether it was Dr Hubble’s bubbles billowing into the crowd, jumping on the controller for Crossy Road, a boogie at Joey Lightbulb's family rave - we loved seeing all the littlelies get involved.

With many future Cosplay Parade contenders in the making too, the future is looking fabulous! 🦸‍♀️🦹‍♀️

Did you get your face painted? We’d love to see! 😉
