Get ready for a holiday dating event with a playful twist. At Build a Match, you’ll team up with multiple potential matches while building a gingerbread house together. The ladies will assemble the base of each house, and the guys will rotate, adding decorations, details, and creativity along the way.
Each rotation gives you a new partner and a chance to spark conversation. No artistic skills needed — this isn’t a craft contest. It’s simply a fun, interactive way to meet people, break the ice, and let connections form naturally while you laugh your way through frosting, candy, and holiday chaos.
Whether you walk away with a prize-winning creation or a new match, you’ll enjoy a festive night of mingling, low-pressure conversation, and shared memories. A holiday event that makes dating feel more like play — that’s the goal.
Price to join this event is $15. Sign up for membership and receive discounted and free events. Spots must be claimed in advance, and you must have a ticket from the Trying to Adult RVA website to secure your place. RSVPing on any other platform does not guarantee your spot.
Parking: limited street parking in the area. Please allow extra time to find a spot or use ride share!
