What’s Magic Open House?

Tournament using the welcome decks at 11:00am.

Set to occur the Saturday before Amonkhet Prerelease, this new event encourages casual fun for new players and easy, league-style Standard play with a participation promo reward.

Starting on Saturday, April 15, players of all levels will come together to learn and play Magic, say farewell to Aether Revolt, and look ahead to the next exciting release—Amonkhet.

We will be introducing new players to the game and welcoming them into the Phoenix Magic community with learn-to-play sessions, using the Welcome Decks that will be provided.  Come as a veteran player to join the fun by bringing a friend or helping to teach new players.

We will be rewarding players who participate in any aspect of our event with one of the premium full-art basic lands (max of 25 to be giving out).

The Bizarre Bazaar

Phoenix Games & Hobbies will be hosting the 9th Annual Bizarre Bazaar Saturday April 8th…it’s a Gamer Yard Sale.

The store regulars (or anyone who wants a spot) will be digging deep in their closets, under their beds, in lockers, bank vaults, etc. and bringing all sorts of items out for sale to the public.

Who knows what rare models, old board games, or missing cards to complete a set will be available.

Just come down Saturday from 10:00am till 5:00pm and find out what deals you can walk away with.
