**###PLEASE NOTE: Even if you RSVP on Meetup, you will need to grab a ticket [here](https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/store/skip-the-small-talk-at-evil-genius-beer-co-tuesday-june-17-2025) in order to attend###** This event is cross-posted so Meetup RSVPs won't accurately reflect the actual number of attendees; typically there are around 30-40 people in attendance.

**What's It Like?**

Do you wish you could have more of the kinds of conversations you have late at night where for some reason, you feel safe talking about the things you actually care about?

Bring your friends (or come by yourself- most people do!) and spend your Monday night at an event where you know everyone else is there for the same reason.

We'll be offering 'big talk' conversational prompts on them to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward.

There will be food and drinks for sale!

**Check-in** for this event will begin around **5:45 pm**. Please do your best to arrive before 6:00 pm so we can begin as close to on time as possible.

Skip the Small Talk is dedicated to providing an inclusive, welcoming environment for everyone. Check out our safety policy here: tinyurl.com/ststSafety

Want to get off your dating apps and meet someone in real life, but where you don’t have to find out that every cute person at the party is unavailable? Do you think that IRL speed dating is generally awkward and weird? So do we. That’s why we’re putting a Skip the Small Talk twist on dating.

We'll be offering "big talk" conversation prompts to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward.

There will be food and drinks for sale! **There is a two (2) drink/food item minimum purchase for this event,** so please keep that in mind.

Check-in for this event will begin around **6:45 pm**.

Please do your best to arrive before **7:00 pm** so we can begin as close to on time as possible. Please note that there is an arrival cutoff, meaning that **if you are not in line to check in before 7:10 pm, unfortunately, you will not be able to participate and we will not be able to offer refunds.**

**Who Is This Event for?**

You would probably have a good time at this event if **all** of the following are true of you:
- **You are aged 30-45** (plus or minus a year or two is cool, too, and if you’re not in this age range, feel free to check out our **[other events](https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/NewYorkCity)**).
- **You are monogamous** (polyamorous events are also often available— feel free to check out **[our other New York City events](https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/NewYorkCity)**!)
- **You either feel a connection to the identity of “man” and you are interested in dating women, or you feel a connection to the identity of “woman” and you are interested in dating men.** Gender nonconforming folks who feel connected to one of those genders in some way are absolutely welcome. (We also host **[other events](https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/NewYorkCity)** to accommodate gender nonconforming folks who don’t feel a connection to the identity of “man” or “woman”).

If any of the above statements are NOT true of you, you might want to see if our **[other events](https://www.skipthesmalltalk.com/all)** are a better fit. We do our best to accommodate as many different demographics as possible given limited capacity for our speed-dating events, and we are always working to include more! Any suggestions for how we can be more inclusive? Please feel free to reach out to us at info@skipthesmalltalk.com.

This event is trans-inclusive. We do not tolerate transphobia at this or any of our events.

We can only accommodate a limited number of guests at this event, so please plan to grab a ticket as soon as you think you'd like to join us.
