About this Event

Sun-warmed grass, the distant hum of a live soundcheck, and a cooler packed with snacks to share with fellow music lovers. Spend a little over an hour in quick one-on-one rounds, then gather up your favorite matches and head into the amphitheater as a small group to set up your picnic.

Get ready for a great afternoon starting with an hour of real one-on-one conversations with concert fans, music enthusiasts, and outdoor seekers. The app pairs you up seamlessly so you always know exactly who you are talking to next. Then comes the best part: you pick your favorite people from the rounds and head into the amphitheater together to find a spot for a group picnic and enjoy the opening day concert. It all happens this same afternoon, with one shared plan and everyone going together.

Just real conversation that turns into a real plan — with people you already vibe with.

By the time the music starts, you're settled on a blanket with a crew of 4-6 new friends you just met. Maybe this becomes your summer concert picnic squad. Maybe it's just a great afternoon you'll remember. Either way, you're rolling with a crew.
