Improv Happy Hour: A Networking Jam for Professionals & Executives

Tired of awkward intros and transactional small talk?
Improv Happy Hour is a high-energy networking experience designed for professionals, executives, and entrepreneurs who are ready to connect differently.

This isn’t just another mixer—it’s a playful, pressure-free space to meet sharp, like-minded people using the tools of improv. You’ll laugh, you’ll think on your feet, and you’ll leave with real connections that go beyond the business card.

You’ll experience:
🎭 Fun, beginner-friendly improv games (no stage experience needed)
🤝 Genuine, meaningful networking-- without the awkwardness
💡 A spark of creativity and presence to carry into the rest of your week
✨ A taste of how play can transform leadership, culture, and communication

Who it’s for:

• Executives and team leaders
• Founders, facilitators, and creative pros
• People-first professionals who care about how they connect
• Anyone curious about using play as a tool for powerful work

📍We will be gathering at Downtown Works, the Carlsbad location.
