About this Event

Our curated dating events aim to faciliate introductions with potential. If you're looking to meet someone great in person, our curated speed dating events create space for compatible connections in a fun, low-pressure setting.

This specific event is for our community of folks ages 25-39 that are interested in male/female dating. Check out our other upcoming events if this one isn't for you!

How it works:

  • Purchase your ticket based on your age and gender—you'll tell us who you're hoping to meet later.
  • After checkout, check your confirmation email for a link to set up your profile in our Meet IRL app.
  • In the app, you'll answer a few quick questions to help us match you with the most compatible people in the room!

What to expect:

  • We’re a small, woman-owned business and we care deeply about creating high-quality, welcoming events. We’ll be there throughout the night to facilitate, answer questions, and make sure you have a great experience.
  • Arrive between 6:30–6:45pm to check in, grab a drink, and mingle.
  • Speed dating rounds start promptly at 6:45pm. The timing of this event is important, so please arrive no later than 6:45pm.
  • Using our app, you’ll rotate through 8–10 one-on-one “mini dates” at different tables. Think of each round as a vibe check—short, intentional conversations with optional prompts to keep things flowing.
  • You'll indicate your interest after each round directly in the app, and you can also make private notes if needed.
  • We’ll wrap up the structured rounds around 8:30pm, but we encourage you to stick around, grab a drink, and continue your conversations at the bar!
  • After the event, you’ll be connected with mutual matches so you can continue to build on the initial spark!
