Beyonce Dance Class + Game Night at The Yards

Game Night At The Yards: Why play ordinary board games when you can play larger-than-life games at The Yards? On The Yards Park, guests can play lawn bowling, bocce, corn hole, and oversized classic board games available for guests to rent from the “Yards Library,” allowing multiple guests to enjoy the games and play space throughout the evening. In other spaces throughout the Yards, guests can enjoy life-sized Jenga, chess, checkers, giant Connect Four, and more. Even better, Ice Cream Jubilee will be serving free mini scoops of their award-winning ice cream for the first 100 guests for each Game Night At The Yards.
