IRL | Singles & Social Events

## AN EVENING OF ELIGIBLES

Meet people, not profiles.
There’s something different about meeting someone in real life.
A glance across the room. A conversation you didn’t plan on having. Chemistry you can’t measure through a screen.
IRL is bringing dating back offline.
For our St. Helena gathering, we're taking over The Saint for an intimate evening created for Bay Area and Wine Country eligibles ages 35–55 who are ready for something a little more intentional.
No speed dating.
No awkward games.
No swiping.
Just a beautiful room, a great cocktail, interesting people—and the possibility of meeting someone you’re genuinely excited to see again.

### WHY THE SAINT?

IRL events aren't held just anywhere.
Our venues are intentionally selected from some of The Bay Edit Magazine's favorite finds throughout the Bay Area and Wine Country—from hidden speakeasies and destination wineries to rooftops, boutique hotels and exceptional restaurants.
The Saint is exactly the kind of place we love.
Located in the heart of St. Helena, it has the intimate, sophisticated atmosphere we envisioned for IRL: beautiful surroundings, great wine and cocktails, and a setting that makes staying for one more drink very easy.

### WHAT TO EXPECT

This isn't a giant, anything-goes singles mixer.
IRL events are age-specific and intentionally limited so the room feels social without feeling overwhelming.
Come alone. Come with another eligible friend. Order something you love, settle in and actually talk to people.
And don't worry about figuring out who's part of IRL—we'll take care of that at check-in. 😉
Dress: Date-night worthy.
Ages: 35–55
When: Wednesday, October 21 · 6–8 PM
Where: The Saint · St. Helena

### YOUR TICKET

$20 per person · Welcome bubbles included 🥂
Your ticket reserves your place on the IRL guest list and includes a welcome glass of bubbles upon arrival.
Not drinking? You're in very good hands. The Saint has an amazing selection of zero-proof options and beautifully crafted mocktails, so there’s absolutely no need for alcohol to have something special in your glass.
Additional food and beverages are available for purchase directly from The Saint.
Space is intentionally limited.

### GETTING THERE

There is street parking available in downtown St. Helena, but if you're planning on enjoying a glass (or two), we highly recommend Uber or Lyft.
Besides… there’s something much more fun about getting dressed up, getting dropped off right in front, and letting someone else worry about the parking. 😉
Your only job is to show up looking good. We'll take it from there.

Come for the venue. Stay for the conversation. Maybe leave with a reason to delete an app.

IRL is bringing dating back offline.
For our Napa gathering, we’re taking over the Riverside Grove at Napa Yard at Oxbow Gardens for an evening created for Bay Area and Wine Country eligibles ages 35–55 who are ready for something a little more intentional.
No speed dating.
No awkward games.
No swiping.
Just a beautiful setting, something good to drink, interesting people—and the possibility of meeting someone you're genuinely excited to see again.

### WHY NAPA YARD?

Don't let the word Yard fool you.
Napa Yard is an incredibly thoughtful indoor-outdoor destination filled with beautiful lighting, hanging wisteria, landscaped spaces and unexpected little places to wander. As the sun goes down and the lights come on, the entire property takes on a completely different feel.
For IRL, we'll have the Riverside Grove exclusively to ourselves—an adults-only area where our guests can gather, mingle and settle in.
But you aren't confined to one space.
The entire Napa Yard property is yours to explore.
Grab another drink. Take a walk. Find a quiet spot to talk. And if you happen to meet someone you really like, challenge them to a round of mini golf. 😉
That's kind of the point.
IRL events aren't held just anywhere. Our venues are intentionally selected from some of The Bay Edit Magazine's favorite finds throughout the Bay Area and Wine Country—places that give you something to experience together, not just somewhere to stand with a drink.

### WHAT TO EXPECT

This isn't a giant, anything-goes mixer.
IRL events are age-specific and intentionally limited, and we've intentionally chosen a quieter evening at Napa Yard so the property feels like it's ours.
Come alone. Come with another eligible friend.
We'll have name tags waiting at check-in so you'll know who's here with IRL—and have an easy excuse to say hello. 😉
Then grab something to eat or drink, explore the property, play a little mini golf if the mood strikes, and actually talk to people.
Dress: Date-night worthy.
Ages: 35–55
When: Thursday, October 22 · 6–8 PM
Where: Napa Yard at Oxbow Gardens · Riverside Grove · Napa

### EAT, DRINK & GIVE BACK

Napa Yard makes ordering ridiculously easy.
Scan the QR code right from your table and order what you'd like, or head directly to the bar—whatever works for you.
And this night does a little good while we're having fun.
A portion of IRL ticket proceeds benefits The Bay Edit Foundation, and Napa Yard guests will also have the opportunity to direct a portion of their food and beverage purchases to the Foundation when ordering through the venue's give-back program.
So your night out can support local storytelling, journalism education, small businesses and community experiences at the same time.

### YOUR TICKET

$20 per person
Your ticket reserves your place on the IRL guest list and access to our private Riverside Grove gathering.
Food, drinks and additional experiences are available for purchase directly from Napa Yard.
Space is intentionally limited.

### GETTING THERE

This one is easy.
Napa Yard is directly across from Oxbow Public Market, with plenty of parking available.
Cross the bridge with Oxbow on your right, look left—you can't miss it.
Once you're here, we'll take it from there.

### COMING SOON TO NAPA YARD 👀

And here's another reason you'll probably want to come back: Napa Yard is getting a roller rink just in time for Halloween.
Yes. A roller rink.
We'll leave you to imagine the IRL possibilities with that one. 😉

### AN EVENING OF ELIGIBLES

Meet people, not profiles.
IRL is bringing dating back offline.
Thoughtfully curated events for Bay Area eligibles who would rather meet naturally—in great places, with great people—than spend another night swiping.

For our Walnut Creek gathering, we're taking over part of 1515 Restaurant & Lounge for an evening created for Bay Area Eligibles ages 35–55 who are ready for something a little more intentional.
No speed dating.
No awkward games.
No swiping.
Just welcome bubbles, a beautiful bar, a private courtyard, interesting people—and the possibility of meeting someone you're genuinely excited to see again.

### WHY 1515?

IRL events aren't held just anywhere.
Our venues are intentionally selected from some of The Bay Edit Magazine's favorite finds throughout the Bay Area and Wine Country—from hidden speakeasies and destination wineries to rooftops, boutique hotels and exceptional restaurants.
For this one, we're heading right into the heart of downtown Walnut Creek.
We'll have access to 1515's beautiful bar area and cocktail tables, plus half of the courtyard privately reserved for IRL guests.
Start inside with a glass of bubbles. Wander out to the courtyard. Find someone interesting. Stay for another cocktail.
This is Tuesday night done differently.

### WHAT TO EXPECT

This isn't a giant, anything-goes mixer.
IRL events are age-specific and intentionally limited so the room feels social without feeling overwhelming.
Come alone. Come with another eligible friend.
We'll have name tags waiting at check-in so you'll know who's here with IRL—and have an easy excuse to say hello. 😉
Then grab your welcome bubbles, settle in, move between the bar and our private courtyard space, and actually talk to people.
Dress: Date-night worthy.
Ages: 35–55
When: Tuesday, October 27 · 6–8 PM
Where: 1515 Restaurant & Lounge · Walnut Creek

### AN EVENING OF ELIGIBLES

Meet people, not profiles.
IRL is bringing dating back offline with thoughtfully curated events for Bay Area Eligibles who would rather meet naturally—in great places, with great people—than spend another night swiping.
For our Lafayette gathering, we're taking over a private space at Western Flyer Brewing Company for an intimate evening of just 40 guests.
No speed dating.
No awkward games.
No swiping.
Just a great night out and a room full of people who are actually open to meeting someone.

### WHY WESTERN FLYER?

IRL events aren't held just anywhere.
Our venues are intentionally selected from some of The Bay Edit Magazine's favorite finds throughout the Bay Area and Wine Country—the places we believe are genuinely worth discovering.
And Western Flyer made the list.
First things first: this isn't your typical brewery.
Western Flyer is bright, modern and beautifully designed, with a full selection that goes well beyond beer.
Our private IRL space sits directly in front of a dramatic glass wall overlooking the working brewery, giving you a behind-the-scenes view of where everything is made. Large doors connect the room to the outdoor patio, so if the weather cooperates, we'll open everything up and let the evening flow inside and out.
Beer person? You're obviously covered.
Not a beer person? There's wine, fun alternative drink options and zero-proof choices, plus light bites available throughout the evening.

### WHAT TO EXPECT

This one is intentionally intimate.
We're limiting the evening to 40 guests, with our own private area, access to the patio and plenty of room to move around and mingle.
Come alone. Come with another eligible friend.
We'll have name tags waiting at check-in so you'll know who's with IRL—and have an easy excuse to say hello. 😉
Dress: Date-night worthy.
Ages: 35–55
When: Wednesday, October 28 · 6–8 PM
Where: Western Flyer Brewing Company · Lafayette

### YOUR TICKET

Early Bird: $15 · First 10 tickets
Regular Admission: $20
Your ticket reserves your place on the IRL guest list and access to our private gathering.
Beer, wine, zero-proof drinks and light bites are available for purchase directly from Western Flyer.
Only 40 spots available.

### GETTING THERE

There is underground parking available, but the entrance can be a little easy to miss the first time.
Pass Western Flyer on your right, turn right at the next stop, then make another right into the underground parking garage.
Or skip the parking altogether.
There's something much more fun about getting dressed up, getting dropped off right in front and letting someone else worry about the car. 😉
Your only job is to show up looking good. We'll take it from there.
