Here's How It's Going Down
Everyone at this table is a beginner.

This is the whole point. One track, one level, one room learning the same game at the same time. Nobody is waiting on you, and you are not holding anyone up.

1
You Get Matched
After you book, fill out our friendship matchmaking form. We use it to seat you with seven women chosen for your table before the night ever starts.
2
You Find Your Name
No wandering, no hovering near the bar wondering where to sit. You walk in, find your name, and find your seven.
3
You Learn
Mahj in the City takes the room from the very first tile. Hands on the rack within minutes, no reading required beforehand.
4
You Play
Guided rounds at every table. Mistakes encouraged, laughter guaranteed, and you leave actually knowing how to play.
The Run of Show
How the evening unfolds.
Arrival
Check in and settle
Grab your table assignment and a drink. The room warms up before anything formal begins.
Seated
Your eight is revealed
Introductions happen where they should, at the table, not in a crowd by the door.
Instruction
Mahjong 101 from the ground up
Mahj in the City takes the room. Tiles, suits, the rack, the draw, the win. Everything you need to actually play.
Play
Guided rounds
You put it into practice at your own table with your instructor circling the room. This is where it clicks.
Close
Leave with the game and the girls
You go home knowing a new game and seven women you did not know that morning.
Your Co-Host
Mahj in the City
We have teamed up with Mahj in the City to bring the instruction. They take the room from first tile to first win, and they are genuinely good at making brand new players feel like they have been doing this for years. Whether you have never touched a tile or you have been meaning to learn for ages, you will leave knowing how to play.

Before You Go
Good to know.

It is the requirement. This is Mahjong 101 and nothing else. There are no advanced tables and no experienced players to keep up with. Everyone in the room is learning the same thing at the same time.

A private venue in South End, Charlotte. The full address is revealed at checkout once your seat is confirmed, and you will get it again in your confirmation email with parking details.

Most guests do, and the format is built for it. You are matched to your table before you arrive, so you never walk into a room and have to figure out where to sit.

After you book, you will get our friendship matchmaking form. We read every one and hand seat each table based on interests, energy, and where you are in life. Fill it out as honestly as you can, it makes a real difference.

Just yourself. Tiles, racks, and all materials are provided. Come as you are and come hungry for conversation.

Seats Are Limited
Learn the game. Keep the girls.
