Game On! at Moore Square is a free outdoor community event featuring giant board games, lawn activities, and active play in the heart of downtown Raleigh. Kids can challenge each other to oversized chess, giant Jenga, hula hooping, and soccer on the park lawns. If you are planning to go, the event runs from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, making it easy to fit around morning or afternoon nap schedules. Street parking is available around the perimeter of the square, or you can use the Wilmington Street Station parking deck nearby. Pack a blanket, grab some takeout from a nearby downtown spot, and let the kids play while you relax on the grass. This event makes a simple, low-stress weekend outing because it requires no advance tickets and allows kids to move at their own pace. It is an easy way to get some fresh air and burn off energy without spending a dime.
