About this Event

Cougar Date Night: Women 50+ & Men 50 & Under 💋🔥

Older, bolder, and ready to mingle.

Confident women 50+ meet curious younger men (25–50) for a one-of-a-kind night that flips the script on traditional dating norms. Cougar Date Night is where experience meets energy—and sparks just might fly.

Forget the apps and swiping fatigue. This is a real-life connection event built for bold women and the men who admire them. Whether you're craving conversation, chemistry, or just a damn good time, this one’s for you.



How It All Goes Down:

🍺 Pre-Game Mixer: Ease in with a drink (not included, but encouraged) and some casual mingling before the rounds begin.

💋 Mini Dates, Big Energy: You'll pair off for a series of quick-fire convos, with a cheeky icebreaker to keep things playful.

🔁 Rotate, Repeat, Spark: When the bell rings, you're off to your next match. Who knows what (or who) is waiting next?

✔️ Pick Your Match: After each round, mark “friend,” “date,” or “none.” Mutual matches get contact info the next day!



Note on Age Range:

This event is designed for women 50+ and men 25–50. While these ranges help us create great balance, we won’t turn you away if you’re slightly outside the box and think you'd vibe with this crew.


🎟 Spots are limited and this one will sell fast—especially for women! Ladies, get on the waitlist early. Gents, don’t hesitate—your dream date might just be looking for someone exactly like you.
