UNA BUENA TARDE | Queer Sober Social Café

Join us for UNA BUENA TARDE, a soft and easy queer sober social made for real conversations, new connections and a calm evening together.

This is a space for LGBTQ+ people and allies who want to meet others without the pressure of nightlife, alcohol or loud party vibes. Instead of a noisy night out, we’re creating a calmer social café atmosphere: good drinks, small snacks, games, music, conversation, and people who are open to connecting in a more relaxed way.
You don’t need to come with a group, know anyone in advance, be extroverted, or have the perfect social energy. This event is made to feel easy, especially for people coming alone.

Entry is by ticket only. Please reserve your spot through Luma before coming:

What is UNA BUENA TARDE?
UNA BUENA TARDE is a queer sober social café by Agua Con Gays Valencia.
The idea is simple: to create alcohol-free social plans where queer people and allies can meet in a warm, casual and low-pressure environment. It’s not a party, not a networking event, and not a language exchange with forced small talk. It’s more like spending a good afternoon/evening in a cozy café with people you might actually want to talk to again.
You can chat, play, read, listen to music, share videos, meet someone new, or simply enjoy being in a queer-friendly sober space.

How does it work?
When you arrive, we’ll welcome you, check your ticket and help you settle in. If you come alone, don’t worry — we can introduce you to a table, a game, or a few people so you don’t have to awkwardly figure it out by yourself.
You can grab coffee, tea, water or snacks, sit down, join a board game, pick a conversation card, suggest a song or video for the shared queue, browse books or magazines, or just chill for a bit.
There is no strict schedule and no pressure to participate in everything. The event is designed so you can move at your own rhythm.

You can:
☕ have coffee or tea
🎲 join a game
💬 answer conversation cards
📚 look through books or magazines
🎵 add music to the shared vibe
📺 suggest a YouTube video
🫶 meet new people gently
🌈 simply exist in a queer sober space
There’s no pressure to perform, drink, flirt, network, or be super social from the first minute. You can come alone, with a friend, stay for the whole evening or just pass by for a while.
