About this Event
Pull up a chair and join us for the Mahjong Social at Flavors of Home, presented by Roots & Rhythm Night Market!
Whether you’re discovering mahjong for the first time or already love the game, come enjoy an evening of clicking tiles, friendly conversation, and community. With beginner lessons and experienced open play, there’s room to learn something new or settle in with fellow players.
The Mahjong Social brings the warmth of gathering around a table to our night market—a place where strangers become playing partners and traditions spark new connections. Between sessions, explore diverse vendors and artisans, discover the stories behind their work, and enjoy food and drinks from market vendors.
What to expect
- Free beginner lessons: Learn the basics and try guided play with an instructor. Sessions include a 45-minute introduction and practice.
- Free experienced open play: Join others who are familiar with your selected mahjong style.
- A welcoming atmosphere: Come with friends or arrive on your own—we look forward to meeting you!
- More to explore: Make an evening of shopping, dining, and connecting at Flavors of Home.
What to bring
- Your reservation confirmation: Have it ready on your phone or bring a printed copy for check-in.
- A jacket or warm layer: Get comfortable for an evening of play as temperatures cool. Highborn & Proués will be serving warm drinks to purchase that evening.
- Your American mahjong card, if applicable: If you’re joining American mahjong open play using NMJL rules, bring your 2026 National Mah Jongg League card. Other styles don’t use this card. Beginners should check their session description for any required materials.
- Your curiosity and friendly spirit: Beginners are welcome—no prior experience is needed for introductory lessons!
Mahjong sets will be available at hosted tables. Please check your selected session’s description for any additional supplies or instructions.
Reserve your place at the table
Choose the mahjong style, experience level, and start time that suit you. Please reserve one seat per playing participant and arrive 15 minutes before your session to check in.
Reservations are for your selected mahjong session. Limited walk-in seats will be available as space allows. If your plans change, please cancel your reservation so another guest can join.
Mahjong is even better with friends! Invite your playing group, bring a friend who’s curious to learn, or make it a night out together. Share this event and have everyone reserve their own seat—then stay to enjoy the food, discover local artisans, and explore Flavors of Home.
Ages 12 and older are welcome. Guests ages 12–15 must participate with a parent or accompanying adult who remains with them throughout the session. Each person playing needs their own reservation.
Food, drinks, and market purchases are sold separately. Bring a layer for the evening and your curiosity—we’ll see you at the table!
