• We’re back teaming up with Axelrad’s Glitch Garden, their monthly video game and electronic music takeover night, to host a special edition of our signature singles event, Pitch A Match.
  🔔 Now happening every last Saturday of every month!
• 12 presenters will each have 5 minutes to pitch their single friend to a room full of other eligible singles, PowerPoint style.
• After the presentations, we transition into a social hour where you can connect with anyone who caught your attention and enjoy the Glitch Gardens experience throughout the venue!

🎤 How It Works:

• 12 presenters (6 Men, 6 Women)
• 5 minutes each
• 1 hour of fun and possibly awkward presentations
• Followed by a 1-hour social hour to mix, mingle, and even challenge another single to a video game duel in the garden! Free games available + BYOC (Bring Your Own Console) is encouraged!
