"Gen X" Speed Dating +I Meet Your Generational Match

Meet up to 15 other "Gen X" singles (born in 1965 to 1980) in one night over 3-5 minute speed dates. Make new connections and maybe meet the "one."

Gen Xers are renowned for their self-reliance, self-direction, and individualism—traits nurtured by the independence they experienced from a young age. Our motto? "If you want something done right, do it yourself." They're resourceful, independent, and masters at maintaining work-life balance.

Remember the days when you memorized phone numbers, had massive CD collections neatly organized in binders, and appreciated life before the Internet, cellphones, and TikTok? Friday evenings were Blockbuster nights, we always kept a pencil in the car for cassette tapes, used baby oil instead of sunscreen, and cherished a good mix tape!

Ditch the dating apps and experience the fun of meeting other Gen X singles in person. This event is all about connecting with like-minded individuals who "get it," because they were there.

Event Highlights:

• Meet up to 15 other Gen X singles (1965-1980) in 3-5 minute "speed" dates
• Enjoy a night filled with fun, laughter, and new connections
