For over 24 years, Little Shop of Magic has brought the best of tabletop gaming to your holidays! This year is no different, and we have a number of of special events throughout the holiday season to make your winter bright!
Drop by and relax with our Take 5 game demos all month long. Each week, we'll demo a couple of exciting board games. Not only do you get to have a little relaxing fun during the hustle of holiday shopping, but you could find an unexpected gift for that special someone!
FOOD FIGHT! Check out our annual Food Fight Tournaments on our Calendar of Events! Food Fights are special events where the players get to 'buy' cheats and in-game advantages by donating cans of non-perishable food items for Three Square Food Bank. Please see the specific event for the list of Food Fight cheats.
In a rush to get your gifts wrapped or shipped? Don't worry, our Wizards have you covered! When checking out ask us about our shipping options, which are available from November 28th - January 1st. If you'd like us to gift-wrap your purchases for you bring in a donation for our Toys For Tots toy drive, or three can of non-perishable food per item to be wrapped for donation to the Three Square Food Bank.
Speaking of presents, it's no secret that most of your relatives really don't know much about your gaming hobby. They mean well but, they often don't know what you truly want as a present. That is why every year we launch Operation Sock Block: our very own gift registry! All you have to do is take a moment to let our Wizards know what you want this year, and we'll magically turn into Santa's little helpers when your loved ones show up at our doorstep looking to buy you a gift.
Finally, don't forget that Little Shop of Magic is an official Toys for Tots donation drop off location! From today until December 15th, we're accepting donations of new, unwrapped toys that will gifted to local children in need this holiday season. Addtionally, for each purchase over one hundred dollars, Little Shop of Magic will donate one toy to Toys for Tots.
We're looking forward to seeing you this December and making your holidays merry and bright!

The Little Shop of Magic is pleased to announce that we will be hosting both Star Wars Armada and Star Wars X-Wing Regional Championships in February 2017. This will be the first time the Little Shop of Magic has ever hosted an Armada regional and the first time we have hosted an X-Wing regional since 2013. This will also be the first X-Wing regional for the Las Vegas area since 2013.
So what's so important about a regional championship? Well, first of all, they are chance to play in a large event with people from outside Las Vegas without
having to travel yourself. Hang out with a bunch of people who share an interest in X-Wing or Armada as well as in Star Wars in general. There are also cool prizes available (yet to be announced by Fantasy Flight Games) such as limited edition dice, promo cards, and trophies. But what might be most signifcant to most people is the opportunity to win a first-round bye at a national championship event. This gives the player a major advantage when playing at the next level event and puts them that much closer to becoming a world champion.
Does playing in a regional for Armada or X-Wing interest you? Click the links below to go to our events calendar where you can get more information about the events as well as sign up (space is limited, sign up now to guarantee your spot at these events).
Star Wars Armada Regional, February 11th, 2017
Star Wars X-Wing Regional, February 25th, 2017

Our fourth annual International TableTop Day is now officially behind us and, once again, a great time was had by all! Hundreds of players joined our Wizards and IELLO's very own Dr. Vargo in our shop, while hundreds more caught the action of our 13 hour celebration of tabletop games with the debut of our very own Twitch channel.
We would like to thank our friends from Atlas Games, IELLO, Petroglyph Games, Renegade Games, Steve Jackson Games, Geek and Sundry and the countless hordes of TableTop fans who helped make this year's event a memorable one. Thanks to the combined efforts of our store and our generous sponsors, we were able to give away over $4,000 in free games and Dragon's Dough cards in our raffle and 'Big Whale' bag give-aways.
