About this event

Join us for a day of old school Magic: the Gathering gaming in downtown Toronto, just south of the University of Toronto campus. The venue is the upstairs ballroom of the Polish Combatants Hall, thus The Fire Ball. Since it is a ball, folks are encouraged (not required!) to come dressed up for the affair.
