Question 1

Is this a dating event?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no. Everyone in the room is single, and some people are definitely looking to date - but others are there just looking for new single friends to hang out with. Our colored bracelet system will help you know who's who right away!

Question 2

What if I’m shy or introverted?

Accepted Answer

This event is perfect for you. We put you with 2-3 friendly people who want to connect. We provide the structure that makes it easy to talk.

Question 3

Is this a safe space?

Accepted Answer

Yes - fully. IRL is intentionally open, inclusive, and welcoming to everyone.

All genders, sexualities, races, and identities belong here. We don’t tolerate disrespect, exclusion, or anything that makes someone feel small.

Question 4

Is there food and/or alcohol?

Accepted Answer

Food will not be available during the event (you can’t talk while chewing!), but there is a bar with alcohol or non-alcoholic drinks for purchase.

Question 5

Do I need to bring or prepare anything?

Accepted Answer

Just bring yourself and an open mind. We’ll do the rest.

Question 6

What should I wear?

Accepted Answer

Most people dress “casual but I might meet someone cool tonight.” Wear whatever that means to you.

Question 7

Will there be equal males and females?

Accepted Answer

Our Singles Salons consistently come out close to balanced on their own, so we don't screen by gender or orientation. The format helps too: small groups of 3 to 4, never one-on-one. Plenty of guests also come to meet new single friends as much as anything else.
