Bring your vibrant LGBT+ community together for Commander games and pass out a special art print for the occasion.
June is Pride Month, a time to celebrate diverse experiences and uplift voices in the LGBTQIA2+ community. This year, we are thrilled to invite you to celebrate Pride Month with us with the latest in the Magic Presents event series, Magic Presents: Pride!
Magic Presents: Pride is an event exclusive to WPN stores in the U.S. and Canada and will run from June 28 – 30, inviting your LGBTQIA2+ community and their friends together for a Commander event with a special twist. Participating players will earn a rainbow holographic foil print for participating, while supplies last.
Download our marketing materials to advertise the event by clicking below, or heading to the marketing materials page.
WPN stores in the United States and Canada must schedule their events in Wizards EventLink before May 31 to qualify for receiving promotional art prints to hand out to participating players during the event. Those who enroll in time will receive 40 art prints each, printed with a stunning rainbow holographic foil treatment and art by artist Anh Nguyen.
After May 31, stores can no longer enroll in the event by scheduling in Wizards EventLink, so make sure you get your event scheduled today to secure your art prints.
You are still welcome to run Pride-themed events at your store without the promotional art print for participants. You might consider coming up with a different prize to bring your community together for a night of unique Commander fun!
For the Magic Presents: Pride event, treat all eligible commanders as though they had the partner ability. This allows players to add an additional commander to a deck they already have or use a never-before-seen combination of two commanders to helm a totally new deck.
Commanders that already have abilities like partner won’t let players have more than two commanders at this event, but we applaud their enthusiasm. Remember that the extra commander still counts toward the 100 cards in their deck.
Aside from that additional rule, run the event the same as you would any other Commander event in your store, and get your community ready for the partner matchups of a lifetime!
Each participating player receives one rainbow holographic art print, while supplies last. Details about this event can also be found on the event page—we will also be sharing the art for the promotional print at a later date, so keep your eyes on that space!
Again, the deadline to qualify for a promotional print shipment to support this event is May 31, and all you need to do is schedule this event in Wizards EventLink. Don't delay—schedule your Pride event today.
