About this Event

Hey, our first two events sold out, and the last one was featured in The Times. See it here.
Limited tickets, don’t sleep on this one.
The team: Hey, We're Death of Small Talk. We all see it: everyone's connected online, nobody's connecting in real life. So we built an app that turns deep conversations into something fun, not heavy. Thousands downloaded it. Now we're doing it live. The goal? Build a world where deep conversations are fun, vibrant, and actually connect us.


The event: A room full of people who actually want real connection. No spotlight. No performing. Just humans showing up as they are, ready to laugh, open up, and actually connect. Perfect whether you're an extrovert, introvert or just tired of rooms where you have to perform being “interesting.”


The setup: Come Solo or bring your friends. Download the paid app (£4.99, one-time payment, no subscription, no ads, yours for life.), show up, we pair you off. 15-minute rounds. Each one starts with a prompt that skips the "what do you do" and lands somewhere real. Some rounds get deep. Some get hilarious. You might leave with a new friend, a conversation that sticks with you on the train home or a number in your phone, because the night actually meant something.


What makes this different: Most meet-ups feel stiff. Forced. You're stuck making small talk with strangers, wondering what to say next. Here? The app carries the conversation with prompts that actually spark something fun, deep, surprising. Wild cards keep things unpredictable. And because you're rotating every 15 minutes, the energy stays alive. New faces. New conversations. Zero awkward silences.


The ticket: Free entry. You’ll need the paid version of the app to attend - £4.99, one-time payment, no subscription, no ads, yours for life. The app is your ticket for this event and beyond. If you attended our last event and already have full access, you’re good to go.
Not sure if you have the paid app? Swipe to the red “Mix All” level and tap into it, if you can enter, you’re in.


Real talk: Only book if you're actually coming. Empty seats K*ll the magic. Plans change? Release your spot.
