About this Event

🎉 We're teaming up with TPK Brewing to host an electrifying evening where queer folks can connect, laugh, and build meaningful friendships! 🏳️‍🌈

🌈 Your host, Max, will kick things off with thought-provoking questions for you and your new friend to explore. 💬

⏱️ Each mini-hangout lasts between 5 to 8 minutes - plenty of time to spark a connection!

Don't worry, we've got your back with handy sheets to keep track of who you want to keep in touch with! 📝 Contact info will be exchanged when both participants want to share and your social circle will blossom! 🌸

This event is more than just an evening out; it's a celebration of community, love, and joy! 💖 Don't miss out on the chance to find your chosen family! Join us and let's make magic happen! ✨

This event is open to LGBTQIA+ folks as well as allies! 🏳️‍🌈

Schedule:

6:30 - guests arrive and are given nametags and set up in their seats

Ticket prices are offered on a sliding scale with the recommended price of $25. If you can pay more than that we have a General Admission + tier for $35 that will not only help balance the cost of offering pay what you can tickets but also comes with 2 Queer The Way stickers. There's also a donation tier for folks that need to pay less (just pay what you can) or want to pay more. Ticket's are limited and our last event sold out so be sure to snag a ticket in advance!
