Hello Taverners! Greetings from Amsterdam! As a small throwback, did you know Gatherers' Tavern started with a small group of Magic: The Gathering players? So of course we couldn’t miss MagicCon Amsterdam 2026. It a time for us to get our nerd on, but it was also a time when we got to connect with so many of you who came to the event.
You guys were not the only one visiting the booth. Somehow, in its wandering and meandering, Fblthp the Lost managed to stumble upon us in its one-eyed glory… and it was very interested in our DOMARU Deco Patches . Was it interested in our array of Japanese food patches? Our cute animals patches? Well, only Fblthp knows.
We brought almost the entirety of our collection to Amsterdam, from our newest releases to long-time favorites, so everyone could experience the full Gatherers' Tavern lineup in person. Hint, we also like to give everyone who visited our booth a sneak peek for future releases. See if you can spot upcoming products from the picture above!
To give you all a first-hand DOMARU experience, we set up special stations so you can have more fun in our booth. The DOMARU Shuffle Station lets everyone put our DOMARU sleeves to the test. Do they shuffle as smoothly as we say? Well time to visit our DOMARU Shuffle Station. We didn’t expect the love visitors gave our DOMARU Midnight Magic Art Sleeves (featured in the picture above!), but with Cinnamon (our mascot AND a real cat) on the sleeves, we totally understand.
For those who wants something more personal, the DOMARU Custom Patch Station is ready for your patch perusing activities. Remember, we have over a hundred (that’s right, 1-0-0) DOMARU Deco Patches for you to choose from. No need to worry about not finding a patch for your style.
Such as these two stylish ladies with their custom DOMARU Cryptid Collection Deco Binders! The red of Clarus Polaris’ Scarlet Witch cosplay matches our Crimson Glow (Mothman) binder, while the fierce queen, Sasa, has our Explorer’s Trail (Jackalope) binder. Besides Mothman and Jackalope, we also have Bigfoot, Yeti, Nessie, and the Jersey Devil binders ready for anyone looking to add a little folklore and mystery to their collection.
Still continuing with our DOMARU, we can’t forget our boxes. Solid construction, incredibly strong magnets to ensure secure closure, engineered down to the finest details, and brought together in one box. Finished with a stylish design and the signature DOMARU metal lip. Protecting your deck with confidence, that’s DOMARU.
Besides DOMARU, you guys also loved our ARTY very much! Especially our Niv-Mizzet, Parun ARTY Box. The plush Niv-Mizzet on top is detachable with a magnet, so you can have Niv-Mizzet lounging on your shoulders as you travel. No doubt having a plush red dragon on you will turn heads no matter where you go.
We cannot forget our Kliggs and Slabs. We always have event exclusive Kliggs keychains for each event. For MagicCon Amsterdam, we had Fblthp frolicking in the field of tulips as shaker keychains! The more you shake, the more it frolicks. Besides Fblthp, we brought over a hundred keychains of various Magic characters, so if you are looking for your favorite character, let’s just say we think we got it.
If you think your desk or shelf could use a little pick me up, Slabs Standee is here to serve. Featuring iconic artworks from Magic: The Gathering, our Slabs are filled with shimmering glitter that brings each piece to life from every angle.
A convention itself is already an amazing experience, but we always love finding ways to make it even more memorable. That's why we partnered up with our friends at Cardmarket to host a special raffle! We want to add a little extra pizzazz to everyone's visit and of course, give you guys a chance to take home some fantastic prizes.
Don’t worry, there are no losers here. Even if you don’t win the grand prize, everyone gets a little something from us… Cinnamon sticker sheets! I get Cinnamon stickers, you get Cinnamon stickers, everyone gets Cinnamon stickers!
For our extremely lucky winners, we gave them the extremely exclusive Gatherers’ Tavern x Cardmarket DOMARU Armory Horizon 100+ in Azurite, Gatherers’ Tavern x Cardmarket Kindled Friendship Playmat, as well as some of our ARTY Boxes. If you want a chance to get those exclusive Gatherers’ Tavern x Cardmarket items, be sure to check out Cardmarket tournaments powered by Gatherers’ Tavern.
We also had our own share of fun seeing so many of you come in such gorgeous cosplays! Who says nerds can’t be cool? The detailed Mjolnir, the finely painted skull makeup, the impressively textured cape. You guys are so, so talented and so, so hardworking. Modern craftsmanship, that’s all we can say.
We certainly loved the extremely creative cosplay of Angrath (just look at the chains and the mask)! Female Loki made us swoon, and to the dragonlord decked in crimson drakes from top to bottom, we hope our Niv-Mizzet, Parun ARTY Box is a worthy member of your legion.
Wolverine from Tokyo visited our booth in his spare time from fighting evil doers and extremely pretty Liliana from Earth found the Liliana from our Kliggs rack. We really do mean it when we say we love to see visitors in creative outfits. Feel free to unleash your inner creative fashionista when you come see us. We do need more style inspiration.
We hope we brought more than enough fun to MagicCon Amsterdam. Thank you for all your support, your enthusiasm, and for making us feel so welcome. We'll continue working hard to create products and experiences that make every game night and convention feel even more special.
Until next event, don’t forget, there's always a seat waiting for you at Gatherers' Tavern.
