About this Event
If you’ve ever sat through an awkward first date or cringed your way through small talk, this one’s for you.
We’re swapping interview-style dating for games, laughter, and effortless connection. No board game experience needed, just show up and let the games do the talking.
What to Expect:
🎲 Five fun, easy games – think Giant Jenga, party classics & quick rounds (no Monopoly marathons here!)
💬 Rotating mixed-gender groups. You’ll stick with your same-gendered group, and rotate around to meet everyone of the opposite gender.
📩 Matchmaking — we use a gratitude note system.
💡 90% of attendees at our last event made a connection. But worst case? You just had a great night out with fun people.
We manage the gender ratio for these events. If your gender is showing as sold out, join the waitlist!
You’ll get a notification if there are cancellations or if additional tickets are released.
