Ditch the Apps: Charlotte's Compatibility-Based Dating Event (26 - 49)

Tired of endless swiping? Join us in Charlotte for a fun singles event that goes beyond the typical dating apps and speed dating!

About this Event

IMPORTANT: Don’t skip the when you grab your ticket

Age Range: Mid-20s through 40s

Vibe: Chill. No swiping. No awkward pressure. Just real people, real conversations, and maybe… real sparks?

Sick of wasting time on dating apps, tired of ghosting, dead-end IMs, and profiles that don’t match the energy IRL? Same. That’s why we created this event—to bring singles together in person for something a little more human and a lot more fun.

This isn’t a cattle call of small talk. It's a curated experience designed to help you connect quickly and meaningfully.

What to expect:

• Group placement tailored to key compatibility factors
• The vibe is relaxed lounge, not speed-date panic room
• You’ll mix and mingle through playful ice-breakers and conversation prompts that accellerate the "getting to know you" process
• Fun games + a round of human bingo (trust us, it’s a hit)

• Discount codes for future events (because your journey might take more than one night!)

Come solo, leave with new connections—friends, flirts, maybe even future +1s. This isn’t about putting on a show. Just bring your real self, an open mind, and maybe a cute outfit.

Limited spots available to ensure gender balance .Event runs 1 hour and 30 Ticket sales close 1 hours before we start. Eventbrite fees are non-refundable. Must fill out the

Friendly Heads-Up on Age & Match Vibes:This event is for singles ages 25–49, which means the crowd is a fun mix—but we’ve noticed a trend: gents in their 40s often come in hoping to meet women a bit younger (especially if they're still in the “maybe someday… kids?” phase). So, if you're a fabulous woman in your late 40s who's already rocked the parenting thing or is past that chapter, just know the dating pool here might feel a little shallow. You might actually have a better time—and better luck—at our 45–65 event, where everyone's swimming in the same life-stage waters.

Event Guidelines

• Be on time – This is a connection experience, and we kick things off as a group
• Be present – Your phone can wait
• Be kind, always – Not feeling a spark? No biggie. Just be gracious
• Dress to express – Look nice, feel nice. This isn’t a black-tie gala, but have your outfit say, “I made an effort"
• Get curious – Ask creative questions, share your story, and really listen. You might be surprised what you learn
• Have your intro game ready – Think about what you’d want someone to remember about you
• Relax and have fun – Everyone’s here for the same reason: connection

Safety

• Speak up – If someone says or does something off, let a host know.
• No tolerance for offensive or inappropriate behavior
• Don’t push for digits – If you want to stay in touch, offer your number. Let them decide if the feeling’s mutual. Consent is hot.
