About this event
**###PLEASE NOTE: Even if you RSVP on Meetup, you will need to grab a ticket here https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/store/20s-speed-dating-monogamous-saturday-august-22-2026 in order to attend###** This event is cross-posted so Meetup RSVPs won't accurately reflect the actual number of attendees; typically there are around 30-40 people in attendance. Want to get off your dating apps and meet someone in real life, but where you don’t have to find out that every cute person at the party is unavailable? Do you think that IRL speed dating is generally awkward and weird? So do we. That’s why we’re putting a Skip the Small Talk twist on dating. We'll be offering "big talk" conversation prompts to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward. Since this is a distillery, only spirits, cocktails, and nonalcoholic drinks will be served in addition to snacks. Check-in for this event will begin around **6:45 pm**. Please do your best to arrive before **7:00 pm** so we can begin as close to on time as possible. Please note that there is an arrival cutoff, meaning that **if you are not in line to check in before 7:10 pm, unfortunately, you will not be able to participate and we will not be able to offer refunds.** Skip the Small Talk is dedicated to providing an inclusive, welcoming environment for everyone.
