Casual Mixer Kickoff: The night starts with a relaxed mingle where you can grab a drink (not included, but encouraged) and ease into the atmosphere before the dating rounds begin.

Guided Conversations: Not great at starting conversations? No worries! We provide an icebreaker question each round, and our high-energy host keeps things flowing smoothly.

Perfect-Length Connections: You’ll have just enough time with each person to feel out their vibe before moving on to meet someone new—all in a positive, supportive, lighthearted, pressure-free atmosphere.

Simple Matching System: After each round, simply mark “friend,” “date,” or “none” on our easy matching system. Mutual matches receive contact info the next day!

Important Details

• Arrive 15–30 minutes early to settle in! Sips & Sparks start promptly, and late arrivals may not be accommodated.
