Contract Bridge at Queenstown Events Centre

Discover Contract Bridge Sessions

Fun awaits at the Queenstown Contract Bridge Club, where enthusiasts and newcomers alike gather to enjoy the timeless card game of contract bridge. This engaging activity involves strategic bidding and play in pairs, perfect for those seeking a mental challenge combined with social interaction. Sessions are open to all ages and skill levels, with no need for a partner as the club pairs up beginners or visitors. Whether you are a passionate bridge player or interested in learning, these meetings provide an ideal environment to develop your skills through classes and casual play.

Hosted twice weekly, the Tuesday evening sessions take place in the Mezzanine Function Room from 6.50 pm, starting promptly at 7.00 pm and running until 10.30 pm. Friday afternoons occur in the Queenstown Events Center's Mezzanine Meeting Room, beginning at 12.30 pm for arrivals with a 1.00 pm start and concluding at 4.00 pm. Each session lasts approximately 210 minutes, allowing ample time for multiple hands of bridge. The entry fee is a modest table charge of NZ $5.00 per person per session, making it accessible for everyone. On Fridays, bring your own lunch or purchase from the cafe on the ground floor to fuel your game.

Our club fosters a welcoming atmosphere where members love to host visitors and new players from other clubs. The social benefits are immense: meet new people, build friendships, and enjoy the fascinating game that sharpens your mind. Classes are held to help beginners get started, ensuring no prior experience is required. The fun of learning a new skill is enhanced by the spectacular views from our clubrooms, adding a scenic backdrop to every session. Come along to experience the joy of bridge in a supportive community setting.
