Singapore’s biggest tabletop gaming event is back and better than ever. TableCon Quest (TCQ) will return for its second year on August 23-24, 2025, at Suntec Convention & Exhibition Centre, promising two days packed with games, tournaments, and activities for everyone.

After a successful first run in 2024, this year’s event has tripled in size with more hall space and new activity zones. The convention welcomes all kinds of players – from seasoned gamers to families and people who are just curious about tabletop games.

“Tabletop games have a unique way of bringing people together – whether they’re long-time enthusiasts, casual players, or just curious about the hobby,” said Elicia Lee, Managing Director at Eliphant Pte Ltd, the event organizer. “TableCon Quest is about making the world of tabletop gaming accessible and welcoming to all. We want everyone to feel like there’s a seat at the table for them.”

Major Highlights

The biggest draw this year will be Bushiroad’s Card Game Festival – the first time this major event leaves Tokyo. Over 1,000 players are expected to join demo sessions, tournaments, and exhibits featuring popular card games like Weiß Schwarz and Cardfight!! Vanguard. Popular voice actresses including Yuka Nishio and Aina Aiba will also attend.

The Ultraman Card Game makes its return with a new sealed format tournament where players open card packs to build decks on the spot. Winners can take home special promotional cards. A stage event will reveal new details about the upcoming first anniversary card set, and fans can meet Ultraman Tiga in person.

The expanded venue will feature several dedicated zones:

• Exhibitor & Indie Zones: Visitors can try and buy games from various publishers including Origame, Good Spirit Games, Grand Archive TCG, and Takara Tomy
• Trader Zone: A space for collectors to trade, buy, and complete their card collections
