About our group

Gleeful Meeple is like a cozy blanket fort for board game enthusiasts! You will often find us at breweries and other establishments in the greater Nashville area. We're all about fun and making pals, so why not roll the dice and join us at our next shindig? Swing by our Facebook page to mingle with fellow gamers or hop on our Meetup page to RSVP (optional, but we like having an estimate on how many meeples to expect)!

I like games, but... what is a meeple?

Great question! It’s widely believed that the word originated during a game of Carcassonne in 2000, when a gamer created a portmanteau of the words “my” and “people.”And there is no better way to describe our group of friends!
