The events are open to complete beginners as well as seasoned hobbyists and are suitable for those over 16 years. Under 18’s must be accompanied by an adult.

Executive Member for Leisure and Community at Fareham Borough Council, Councillor Frair Burgess said: “I am delighted that the Ping Pong Parlour will be given an extended use for these Board Game Lounge events this summer. This is another way in which we are revitalising the town centre – opening it up to different audiences with more diverse and inclusive events. I hope that these events will be successful so we can continue them in the future and encourage anyone interested to book their place today.”
