Wanting to host a board game night generally requires one to have games of one's own, although [board game cafes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hasbro-game-zone) make it easy for groups to access an extensive collection of games—Big Potato is now offering its first-ever bookable board game event that provides the best of both worlds.

With the Big Potato 'Big Night In,' a group of minimum 10 people are able to gather and enjoy Big Potato's [party games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/group-drinking-games), free prizes and a "game guru" from Big Potato's team that helps to quickly establish the rules.

The bookable board game event is ideal for large at-home gatherings, as well as special events like weddings, teambuilding sessions and plenty of other kinds of get-togethers where fun is the priority.
