What to Expect
Pitch Your Friend: Sign up to present your single bestie using a slide deck. Each pitch is 3-5 minutes and designed to highlight their best qualities, quirks, and what makes them a total catch.
Tickets: Buy your tickets prior to the event to reserve your pitch spot before all spots are filled, or just grab your tickets to watch and get pitched to.
Event Night: Arrive 15 minutes early to check in.
Presentations: Present your friend to a room full of singles or sit back, sip your drink, and enjoy the presentations.
After each presentation: There will be a Q&A session, and presenters will share their friends contact info (e.g., Instagram handle) on the last slide so audience members can slide into their DMs
Mingle & Match: After the pitches, you can also mingle and make connections with anyone who caught your eye!
