About this event
One of 30 upcoming events at Putnam Place, and 1,629 across the Capital Region.
Doors: 5:00pm Ages: All Ages Until 8pm* / 18+ After 8pm Admission: FREE! * Anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal adult guardian. Every Thursday this Summer, Putnam Place becomes the Capital Region’s home base for Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering. Packs and Pints is a laid-back weekly gathering built to bring players, collectors, and enthusiasts together — whether you’re a seasoned trader, a casual collector, or cracking your very first booster. All skill levels welcome, all year long. No pressure, just good company and great cards. It’s more than a meetup. Each week brings live game shows and video game tournaments with chances to win free packs, trading and battling booths, group pack-opening experiences, and a rotating lineup of vendors on hand to buy, sell, and trade. Pull up a seat, crack some packs, find your next trade — and grab a pint while you’re at it. Bring the family early: kids under 18 are welcome with a parent or legal adult guardian until 8 PM, after which it’s 18-and-over only. Must be 21+ to drink, of course. Return to Calendar
