Private Events

Want to host your own event? Any Mahj Garage class can become your own private party. Have something else in mind? Please let us know, and we will work with you to create a specialized offering.

Mahj Garage will bring everything needed to play the game of American mahjong (tiles, mats, racks, pushers, cards, lighting, and curriculum). You, the host, will provide tables, chairs, and refreshments.

If you haven't already, please complete the private party registration form, located on the Private Party page.

Please note:

Cost is $45 a person. A deposit of 50% is due upon booking. If the cost exceeds $90 (four people), we will contact you to request the remainder of the full deposit once you confirm the number of guests. We currently accommodate parties of 4-16 guests for private events.

There are no deposit refunds if you cancel within seven days of your scheduled event. You may, however, use your deposit for a future class or party credit, subject to price increases and availability. Full refunds are permitted if the event is canceled outside the seven-day window.

If you would like to host a class on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, there is an additional cost of $10 per person.

All private classes require a 50% deposit of the estimated number of attendees to hold a specific date. Until that deposit is received and confirmation is sent from Penny, no date is confirmed. Final payment for all private classes is due 24 hours before the start of class. If we do not receive payment, your class will be canceled and no refunds will be given.

If you host your event in your home or other space, Mahj Garage will bring everything needed to play the game of American mahjong (tiles, mats, racks, pushers, cards, lighting, and curriculum). Mahj Garage does NOT bring tables, chairs, or refreshments.

Mahj Garage will arrive 15 minutes before the start of your party if hosted off-site. Please have all tables and chairs ready for game play by this time, so we can set the mats, tiles, etc.

By booking this event, you acknowledge that you have read and understand the above terms. Please email penny@mahjgarage.com if you have any questions. We will respond to your message as quickly as possible.

Thank you!
