VENUES for FIND EVENTS

Looking to be a venue for a FIND singles event? Let’s see if we’re a good fit for you!

HOW IT GOES

We’ll handle all ticket sales and day-of logistics to ensure everything runs smoothly. In return, the venue keeps 100% of the bar revenue generated during the event.

When do you host events? We want this to be a win-win situation for everyone, so we typically host events a Sundays-Thursday (slower days for restaurants and bars). Weekends are options too if you have the space for us!

Here’s an outline of what a typical event looks like for an evening event:

  • 6:45 PM - 7:15 PM: Check-in, mingle, grab a drink

  • 7:15 PM - 7: 20 PM: Announcements

  • 7:20 PM - 8:15 PM: Speed dating rounds

  • 8:15 PM - 8:30 PM: Break for drinks and socializing

  • 8:30 PM - 9:00 PM: Final speed dating rounds

  • 9:00 PM - Close: Guests can stay and socialize over food or drinks

Once we agree to a date and time, the FIND team will send a contract and start selling tickets and marketing the event.

VENUE CRITERIA:

  • Quick service - Singles that are looking for some liquid courage are looking for drinks that are delicious and reasonably priced (no NYC drink prices please). 40-80 guests arrive within a 45 minute window and need to be served before event announcements.

  • Noise control - It tends to get loud, fast! With dozens of singles talking at once and also trying to listen intentionally, couples need to have space and be able to speak without screaming and losing their voices.

  • Indoor options - We love being outdoors, but if weather permits, we do need an indoor option  

  • Marketing collaborations - We primarily advertise on social media, but nothing beats old-fashioned flyers. Venues are willing to accept social media collaborations with us, repost events on Instagram stories, hang up paper flyers inside and/or put digital flyers on TV screens.

  • ADA accessible - Some guests may be in a wheelchair and need accessible accommodations

  • Bonus points if you are a locally owned business

  • Welcoming to various communities and groups - Singles events are grouped by different audiences such as age groups (21-30, 26-40, 45-60), sexual orientation (heterosexual, Man seeking Men, Sapphics, LGBTQIA), and communities (Christians, People of Color). Please let me know if you have any preferences on a community to host or not to host. Your decisions are confidential.

  • Lots of tables - Able to accommodate 40 - 80 couples (20-40 tables) according to the chart below
