Women+ Speed Puzzling @ Twilight Cafe Midtown Toronto

Changeling Event Type: Special Event, Women+ with an age recommendation, 16 years+

What is a Women+ Event? Our events are friendly competitions for women, two-spirited, trans, non-binary, and gender non-conforming individuals to gather and build connections over puzzles. Our goals for our events are to foster greater community, help build friendships, and support our safe space partners.

What to Expect: Whether you're a seasoned puzzler or have never tried a puzzle, this event offers something for everyone. Come as a group or solo, and we can help pair you with a community table. Our events are a great way to connect with members of local communities and are perfect for folks arriving in Toronto looking to make new friends.

Begin by grabbing a delicious drink or nibble from the Twilight Café menu, then join a table. Each table will start with a brand-new 1000-piece Villager puzzle, and can seat up to 4 competitors.

: These uniquely designed puzzles are perfect for a cozy night with a pint. Each puzzle is a stunning piece of art designed by a Canadian female artist. With a matte finish, made from recycled premium paper board, each puzzle supports a women-owned business, which in turn supports women designers, who all work to make a positive impact locally.

General Admission Tickets: Admission includes access to the Twilight Cafe reserved second floor, an on-site game expert who can help you with introductions and organizing tables and a 1000-piece take-home puzzle for group bookings.

Tickets are priced and sold per person or for groups. Tables are available for:

• Groups of 2-4 players - Great for a first date or catching up with friends.
• Community - These tables are available for solo players looking to make new connections, both puzzling and the friendship kind!

Pre-purchased seats will be held for attendees for the first 30 minutes of the event.

Membership & Passes: Changeling Gaming Memberships include event discounts for our paid subscribers. After just two events within a 30-day period, our members save, with the potential of over $80 per month! For this event, each Special Event Membership ticket purchased must have a single individual corresponding Patreon Special Events Membership Subscription. Or, a temporary Membership Pass may be presented with Special Event stamp slots available for each ticket purchased.

Proof of membership will be required at the door.

Prizing: The winners will receive tickets to the next speed puzzle event at Twilight Cafe Midtown, giving them the chance to return and compete again for 1st place on April 15th.

Food & Drink: Twilight Cafe’s menu blends cafe classics (coffee, brunch), Asian-inspired comfort meals (rice, noodles, dumplings), hearty snacks, sandwiches, and fun drinks (bubble tea & lattes) — making it a hybrid cafe + casual restaurant rather than just a coffee-only spot. They also offer a delicious menu of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and specialty drinks, including bubble teas to choose from.

There is no minimum spend, but we strongly encourage purchasing something as able to support the venue so we can keep returning for more game nights. The recommended minimum is $20 per person (~ one drink and one food item)from the Twilight Cafe Midtown menu.

If you wish to remain off-camera, please let our team know once on-site so we can direct you to the photo-free tables.
