How the evening works

Four simple steps, one comfortable night

  1. 1

    Arrive & settle in

    Check in with your host, get your name card and a drink, and take a seat. No app, no swiping — just a warm room.

  2. 2

    Timed conversations

    Meet each guest one-on-one for a few unhurried minutes. When the round ends, the host moves things along for you.

  3. 3

    Mark who you'd like to see again

    On a simple card, quietly note the people you connected with. Nobody else sees your choices but us.

  4. 4

    Get your matches — privately

    When two people choose each other, we share contact details with both. You'll hear from us within 24 hours.

Your Privacy.
Our Priority.

We create a safe, respectful space where you can be yourself.

  • Hosted and moderated events
  • Carefully vetted guests
  • Your information stays private
