Blitz gives each player a few minutes for the whole game, and it is a common way to end a club evening. This page lists the entries where a source mentions blitz: clubs with blitz nights, cafés where quick games are played, and tournaments with a blitz section or a blitz day of their own.
The time control is set by each organiser, so read it on the organiser's page before you sit down. Some blitz events take entries on the day; others, especially rated ones, ask for registration in advance. As everywhere on this site, the date at the end of each line is the latest trace we found, not a timetable.
