About us
We organize a large singles party just about every week of the year, all over the Bay Area! We do dance parties, cocktail parties, wine tastings, speakers, holiday parties, and much more... Our larger parties, at major hotels, attract 400 or more. We also do more intimate gatherings of just a few dozen friendly singles. We are NOT a dating site.
All of our 55 parties a year all over the Bay Area benefit The Seva Foundation, located in Berkeley CA, to restore sight to the blind. All of us who work at the parties are volunteers. Every $50 we raise allows Seva to finance a cataract surgery in one of the poor countries of the world! Please spread the word to all of your single friends so that together we can help 15 million people who need this operation to regain their sight.
DISCOUNTS for our parties are available on our main website, www.thepartyhotline.com.

Take one of the elevators up to the rooftop outside bar. That's where you'll join us. The surrounding views of the downtown area are absolutely amazing. The Archer Hotel is the tallest building in the entire Napa Valley, with sweeping views from our rooftop party! There are heat lamps and comfortable chairs for us to sit on. Some with a fire pit. Here's your chance to actually meet someone in a casual environment like before online dating was invented.
If by chance you stick around until it gets dark, you can enjoy eating at one of the many outstanding restaurants or walk around the downtown area. Lots of free parking on the street and nearby garages. The Archer Hotel is located within easy walking distance of world class restaurants and distinctive shops. Our party at The Archer before the pandemic was the subject of a major feature story in The Napa Register!
