Big Ballers: Dinner with Entrepreneurs | Boston

Hey, Ballers!

When was the last time you did something completely spontaneous? Our series groups together complete strangers for a fun night out to connect with like-minded individuals. You sign up, and we book the restaurant. Our mission is to host dinners in over 100 cities to bring people together while supporting locally owned businesses. This micro-event is intended to be for 6 people or less. Check out our feature in Eventbrite's 2025 TRNDS report about embracing the micro-event trend.

This gathering isn't an official event with the restaurant but rather an outing based on a table reservation via Opentable or Resy. The pin on the map is not the location, but a placeholder on Eventbrite as each week is held at a different location.

Our feature on Fox 11 Los Angeles.

Please see here for our coverage in Nashville Fox 17's Growing Nashville segment.

How does it work?

After you register, you'll be emailed an introduction message regarding age, hoodies, and food preferences.

*Your registration does not include your individual food and drink purchases. A paid ticket simply makes you more committed to actually showing up.

*Dinners for members are not limited to the dates listed on this calendar.

*These outings are intended to help people make friends. These are not singles gatherings.

*If we don't meet our minimum number of registrants for the evening you sign up, please be open to joining us on another evening! We will complete table reservations after we hit our minimum signups, so you may reach out to us before signing up for or after you sign up to see our progress with registrations for the evening.

*If you sign up the day of the gathering and do not get a message from us in time, simply email [email protected], request a refund, or please be open to joining us on another evening.

Our vision is simple: we take the no gimmicks approach to networking. No need for yet another app to take up space on your phone - just four walls and a roof and good food for people to connect :) We coordinate with you directly, human-to-human.

If you have any more questions, please contact [email protected]!

(Become a monthly member via Patreon for exclusive community gatherings not listed on this calendar, and for community chat rooms to connect with other entrepreneurs, instead of registering a la carte here!)

"It was so great! I will share pictures of food and if you need anywhere to share the experience! You did it better than AI! All of us were from different parts of the world, somehow having similar interests even though the age was different. Super cozy and friendly and amazing. We had one birthday (Persephone) so we gave her a cake!Thanks for hosting and looking forward to more events!" -Korina from Munich
