Here's a scary thought: If you’re saving all your fun for the weekends, you’re only enjoying ~29% of the week.

Luckily, weeknights in Indy are anything but boring. Here are a handful of recurring weekly events to keep you laughing, dancing, and playing all week long.

Monday

Play — Casual Magic Commander, Elf 'N Moon | Whether you're rocking a mono black or tricolor deck, bring your best commander and take on other Magic: The Gathering players.

Play — Hambone's Trivia, Jockamo's Pizza Greenwood | Pair tough questions with soft crusts.

Tuesday

Play — Trivia with the Quizzler, MashCraft | Try your hand at a prize-filled competition from "the arch-villain of Indianapolis trivia." Pro tip: You can also find him at Mass Avenue Pub on Wednesday nights.

Laugh — Comedy Open Mic, Helium Comedy Club | Try out your three-minute set, or relax and enjoy jokes from other comedians. Pro tip: Sign-ups typically open on Thursday the week before the event, and the club gets more than 100 submissions every week, so don’t be discouraged if you aren't chosen right away.

Move — Two Step Tuesday, Duke's Honky Tonk | Get your boot-scootin’ boogie on with free entry + line dancing lessons, plus discounted drinks.

Play — Family Game Night, IPL Central Library | Challenge your family in giant Jenga, board games, and chess.
