📍 Westwood Raleigh

📅 Saturday, October 10th

⏰ 6:00–9:00 PM

💘 Ages 25+


Join us for a Saturday night of music, drinks, mingling, and new connections - all while supporting an incredible cause.

❤️ Event proceeds will benefit Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center through Fred’s Team as part of my fundraising for the New York City Marathon.

Grab your single friends, recruit your favorite wingman or wingwoman, and dress to impress for a night that’s all about having fun, meeting new people, and doing some good while you’re at it.


What to Expect

💘 A 25+ crowd ready to meet new people

🖍️ Color-coded wristbands so you know who’s single and ready to

🤝 Come solo, with other singles, or bring your favorite sidekick

❤️ Proceeds benefit Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

👗 Dress to impress


🤝Pick Your Wristband & Start Mingling

We’re taking some of the guesswork out of meeting someone new.

Everyone will choose a color-coded wristband at the door, making it easy to see who’s single and who’s there as a sidekick.

  • ❤️Single - Straight
  • 🌈 Single - LGBTQ+
  • 💍Taken / Sidekick

See a single wristband that catches your eye? That’s your sign to go say hi. 👀

No awkward guessing whether someone is available. No speed dating, assigned matches, or forced conversations. Just grab a drink, enjoy the music, let your sidekick work their magic, and see where the night takes you.


👗 Dress to Impress

We’re giving you an excuse to put a little extra effort into your Saturday night look.

Think date-night casual - dresses, skirts, polos, button-downs, or whatever makes you feel your best.
Nothing formal, just come looking like you might meet someone you want to impress. 😉


❤️ Party With a Purpose

This November, I’ll be running the New York City Marathon with Fred’s Team and raising money for Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.

Every ticket and donation from the evening helps support that mission.

So text the group chat, pick your sidekick, plan your outfit, and meet us at Westwood.
