Looking for your new favorite hangout? Take a Field Trip to CitySpace! Join us for a new, monthly series of meetups where you can chill with your friends, meet new people who share your interests, spend time doing things you love, discover local businesses / organizations and, most of all, have a blast!
Want to get off your dating apps and meet someone in real life, but somewhere you won't find out that every cute person is unavailable? Do you think that IRL speed dating is generally awkward and weird? You're not alone. That’s why we called our friends at Skip the Small Talk!
They will offer "big talk" conversational prompts to get you started and there will be lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and it's not awkward.
Not feeling like answering a particular question? No worries, you’ll have plenty to choose from, like, "When are you the happiest?" We'll give you ground rules to make sure you feel comfortable and safe sharing as much of yourself as possible while still feeling in complete control of how much you share.
Complimentary snacks will be served and drinks will be available for purchase.
Who is this event for?
- You are aged 25-35 (up to a few years older or younger is cool too)
- You are monogamous
- You either feel a connection to the identity of “man” and you are interested in dating women, or you feel a connection to the identity of “woman” and you are interested in dating men. Gender nonconforming folks who feel connected to one of those genders in some way are absolutely welcome.
If any of the above statements are NOT true of you, you might want to see if other Skip the Small Talk events are a better fit. They do their best to accommodate as many different demographics as possible and given the limited capacity for speed-dating events they are always working to include more!
This event is trans-inclusive. We do not tolerate transphobia at this or any of our events.

Want to Attend for Free?
We are proud to offer “Understudy Tickets” for free. If you register for a free Understudy Ticket, you agree to arrive at the event at or before 6:30 pm, check in and wait until we assign everyone to their first table. If you are assigned to a table, that means you are welcome to participate in the entirety of the event for free! If you are not assigned to a table, it means we regrettably were not able to fit you in and you are free to do what you’d like for the rest of the night. We never know in advance how many Understudy Ticket holders we will be able to accommodate, but we prioritize who we let in based on who arrives first, so we recommend checking in with us early.
