What we’re about
****Yes, This group has won a Meetup Best Groups award, though I have no idea where to find a link to that!****
Philly Random Happenings is for anyone who likes fun and RANDOM activity. Games, Comedy, Parties, Networking, Music, Art and everything else! Singles, couples, and anything in-between! Indoor stuff, outdoor stuff, relaxed and casual, large events and small. Intense intellectual exercises and crazy wild ones, it's all good (and Random!)
New to Philadelphia? or a long-time resident? It's all good!
I strive to include creative activities that are much more stimulating than drinking contests or happy hours, in safe, friendly environments. Most are all-ages friendly! (a few are not)
PRH specialises in events that are bit out-of-the-ordinary!
I like to call it 'the thinking person's Meetup group'
Games? Live shows? Art? Music? Education and Inspiration?
You name it, and stick it in the Philly Randomizer...let's see who comes out!
Meet some new people, or reconnect with old ones. Tell us your likes and dislikes!
Past gatherings have included improv comedy shows, meditation events, game nights, concerts, dining, community events......
PRH is for exciting events in any Philadelphia neighborhood, from South Philly to West, Northeast to Port Richmond, Penn's Landing to University City! From time to time, we may explore the 'burbs (but we really are Philly-centric)
We will try to mix it up as far as bike-friendly, commuter-friendly and car-friendly destinations. Expect a few events every week!
Run by game designer, manga artist and event producer Alex Strang. I cannot make it out to every event, but I at least try to share as many cool things as I find!

See all- FILM: Lancelot du Lac (New Restoration)Bok Bar, Philadelphia, PA
The final days of Camelot and the Knights of the Round Table are dissected in Robert Bresson’s austere yet bloody drama Lancelot du Lac.
Utilizing non-actors who were instructed to minimize any emotion in their delivery, Bresson opts to foreground gestures and sound where galloping horses and clanking armor tell a tale of infidelity and revenge. (Robert Bresson, France, 1974, 85 min.) In French with English subtitles

Crawl out through the fallout with DELCON 2024!DELCON 2024 'Crawl Out From The Fallout' Gaming Event
This year we are embracing the apocalypse.
FB LINK:
https://www.facebook.com/events/9687642641270513There is a lot of terror to be found in an apocalypse, but there's a lot of hope, too. It is always amazing to see the tenacity of humanity and how they continue to build community even in the wake of a destroyed world.
We'll have all sorts of post-apocalyptic board games and RPG sessions.
For those of you who aren't into post-apocalyptic games, we'll have plenty of other board games and RPGs for you to play.There will be vendors and snacks just like years before.
Over the coming weeks, we'll be revealing more details about what we've cooked up for you.
For now, we just wanted to let everyone know that DELCON 2024 will October 12th and 13th.
Recommended donations: $15 for a Saturday Pass, $10 for a Sunday Pass, $20 for a weekend pass.
