🎟️ SIGN UP AND GRAB A TICKET HERE 🎟️

F*ck the Small Talk has traveled the world from Berlin to London to Lisbon to Melbourne & Mexico City and has landed in Vancouver. After 10 sold-out events last year, we are back for another season with our new host, Krystal! 😎

πŸ“¦ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for an evening of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!

Join us for games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Vancouver every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. πŸ™Œ

πŸ““ HOW DOES IT WORK?

We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want to!

πŸ’› WHAT THEY SAY

πŸ—£ β€œThis is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” - Sonya

πŸ—£ β€œI loved F*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda

πŸ—£ "it’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other"- Sara

πŸ—£ β€œF*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Matthias

πŸ€“ FAQ

β€’ Can I come alone?

Of course, in fact, we encourage it!

β€’ I signed up but never got an invite. Why?

We usually get a high volume of sign-ups yet we like to keep it cozy & only invite around 25 people. We believe this is a good number to ensure an awesome experience, and we’ve learned that it’s easier to build connections with smaller groups! Please try again next time if do not receive an invite - no hard feelings.πŸ’›

β€’ Why do you charge?

We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. β™₯️ This is our project/business and what we give to the world and we think everything should be a fair exchange! 🎈

​‒ Can I get a refund if I can't make it?

Unfortunately, we do not offer refunds or ticket transfers to another event date if you cannot attend with a notice of less than 4 days notice. BUTTTT feel free to pass on your ticket to a friend, provided they also sign up the form :)

β€’ Can I bring my pet llama/dog?

While we love furry friends, please leave your good dog/cat/rabbit/fish/llama/raccoon at home since our event will be held indoors.
