Real Connections Await


Tired of endless swiping and surface-level chats? Drop the apps and join us for a night of authentic connections at The Broad Center. This isn't just another night out; it's a chance to meet new people in a fun, pressure-free environment.

Your experience starts with a "vibe check" designed to help us match you with the most compatible people. You’ll also get to choose the age range of your matches. Then, get ready for multiple rounds of unique speed-dating prompts that go beyond small talk, helping you get to know everyone in a fun and engaging way. We're also providing a complimentary buffet to keep you fueled, and since it's BYOB, you can bring your favorite drinks to enjoy with new friends.

Your Impact


By attending, you're not just having a good time—you're making a real difference. The Broad Center is a certified Opioid Overdose Prevention Program and a community hub dedicated to helping vulnerable populations in Brooklyn. All proceeds from this event go directly to supporting our work in overdose prevention, housing justice, and wellness initiatives.

Whether you're looking for love or new friends, this is the perfect opportunity. Expect good vibes, great people, and a memorable night where you can have a blast and give back to the community.
