About this Event

Just A Drink creates a way for single people worth meeting to meet each other – without the apps.


How This Event Works

This event works by asking each single woman to bring a single male friend. We do this for a few reasons:

  • Moral support is built in. You’ve both got someone to go with.
  • We want to create a way of meeting someone that doesn’t involve the apps.
  • If a man has been brought along by a female friend, he’s probably all good.


How Tickets Work

If you're a single woman, buy one female ticket for you and one male ticket for your friend – or send them the link so they can grab their own.

If you're a single man, you’re welcome to share this with a female friend you think would be keen and make a plan together.

To get in, you’ll need to arrive as a pair. We recommend not buying tickets until you and your friend have confirmed your plans.


What We’re Trying to Help With

It’s hard for single people worth meeting to find each other.

  • Out and about, you can’t always tell who’s single.
  • On the apps, you can’t always tell who you’d actually want to take the time to meet.
  • The whole thing ends up more tiring than fun.


The apps have helped – you’ve probably met people through them. But a surprising number of men are undone by a format that asks for a few good photos, some self-awareness, and one complete sentence.


So here’s a different way to try meeting people. Come along – it’s just a drink.
