Oota & Aata is an intimate, hyper-local event series that invites people to pause, gather, and play like we used to — back in the day.
A curated experience set in Sabha inspired by balmy Bangalore’s late afternoons, games your ajji loved paired with comforting tea-time snacks inviting a slower kind of joy.
Oota Aata Edition 1
Oota & Aata invites you to explore a range of traditional board games that may stir up a childhood memory or pique your curiosity to learn something new!
Created by Roll the Dice, the games accessible to participants double as an archive rooted in culture and yesteryear nostalgia.
Recreate the memory of a childhood home where slow weekend evenings were spent in playful exploration with loved ones, as you choose from one of the games like Alaguli Mane/Pallanguzhi, Pagade, Aadu Huli/ Tiger & Goat to explore.
The event will also feature snack platters inspired by authentic South Indian tea-time snacks like vadais, Mangalore buns, kuzhipaniyarams and ambient music to elevate the experience. Gather your game-night crew, a friend or come solo for an evening of playful (could get competitive) fun and discovery!
