💡 HOW IT WORKS

Matching will be powered by Matchbox. It’s a
software that uses relationship science to find you your most compatible
match at the party. The algorithm has matched more than half a million
people to date, across 40 countries. It optimizes for long-term
compatibility, based on values—but it’s up to you to see if you’ll
click.

  • Upon arrival, you’ll take a matching questionnaire built by Matchbox’s team of relationship scientists and curated by your host.
  • The Matchbox algorithm will identify your optimal match at the
    party, based on relationship science, AI, and Nobel Prize-winning
    economics. Matches will also take age into consideration.
  • After mingling with the whole group, a few clues are given before matches are revealed!

Ticket Includes:

  • Exclusive bar access for Thursday guests, discounted drinks, plenty of other singles to meet, and the matching experience.

Who it’s for:

  • This event is for single people 25 and over

What to expect:

  • The matching process is highly intentional—come with an open mind.
  • If your match isn’t love at first sight, that’s okay! The algorithm
    is designed for long-term compatibility, so at baseline, you’ll be
    values-aligned.
  • At the end of the day, this will be a great group of single people. Enjoy meeting everyone, and remember to be kind.

Event Structure:

  • This event is highly intentional and the matching will proceed on schedule. Please be on time.
  • 19:00—the event begins on time, bar opens
  • 20:50—doors close, The Algorithm begins computing matches
  • 21.00—a series of clues
  • 21:15—matches revealed

  • 22:00 – DJ starts playing, karaoke lounge and dance floor is open
  • 00:00 – event doors open to public if space allows, possible to stay until 3 am

FAQs:

Q: What age range is the event for? A: This event is for mid-twenties and older

Q: What if I don’t get a match? A: We aim to
maintain a 50/50 male to female ratio but cannot guarantee that all
attendees will show up, as life happens. If there is an uneven split,
some people will get a friendly match for some rounds.

Q: What is the vibe at the event? A: Easy going, no pressure, everyone is open to meet new people!
