Confident women, younger men, and zero judgment. Join us for a fun and welcoming date night at Malted Barley Providence!
About this Event

Confident, bold, and ready to meet someone who can keep up. This night was made for you.

Cougar Date Night is a relaxed and welcoming evening for women ages 50 and older who are open to meeting younger men, and for younger men who appreciate and are genuinely interested in older women. No awkwardness, no explanations needed. Just good people enjoying a great night out at Malted Barley Providence.

Ditch the apps and come meet real, local singles in person in an atmosphere that feels easy, fun, and completely judgment free.

Note on Age Range: This event is designed for women ages 50 and older and men under the age of 50. If you are close to the age range and feel you would be a great fit for this group, you are welcome to reach out before reserving your spot. Our goal is to create a well-balanced evening where everyone has a genuine chance of meeting someone they connect with.

How the Evening Unfolds

Casual Mixer Kickoff: The night begins with a relaxed mingle at Malted Barley Providence. Grab a drink (not included, but encouraged), settle in, and enjoy the atmosphere before the rounds begin.

Guided Conversations: Not sure how to start a conversation? No need to worry. We give you a conversation starter each round, and our host keeps the energy warm and the evening moving at a comfortable pace.

Perfect-Length Connections: Each round gives you just the right amount of time to get a feel for someone before moving on to meet the next person, all in a lighthearted, welcoming, and pressure-free setting.

Simple Matching System: At the end of each round, you simply mark "friend," "date," or "none" on your match sheet.

Match Contact Info Disclaimer: By attending this event, you agree that if you and another participant both select each other as a match, your contact details (email and phone number, if provided) will be shared with each other after the event. Information is only shared for mutual matches. We want to help people connect in real life, not keep them stuck on yet another messaging platform.

Important Details

⏰ Please arrive 15 to 30 minutes early so you have time to settle in. We start on time, and late arrivals may not be accommodated.

💡 This evening is about being present, keeping an open mind, and enjoying the experience of meeting new people. Many attendees do leave with a match, but the best thing you can do is come in without fixed expectations and just enjoy the night.

Space is limited. Reserve your spot and come ready for a great evening.
