Thursday | Eighty-Eight Brewing x MATCHBOX EVENT (LGBTQ+) | Calgary

Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2025 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!
MATCHBOX INFO👇👇👇

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.

How it works:

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.
After mingling with the whole group, matches are revealed!

Ticket Includes:
Thursday event & matching experience. (Drinks and food are at your own cost.)
Who it’s for:
This specific Matchbox event is for LGBTQ+ SINGLES ONLY 🏳️‍🌈
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.
If there is an uneven split, some matches will be paired platonically. These people receive a free ticket to a future event of their choice, valid for 60 days after this event. Talk to your host for more details!
