About us

Thursday- Salt Lake City’s in‑person dating movement

Thursday is a global brand that landed in Salt Lake City in November 2025 with one mission: get people off the apps and back into real, face‑to‑face connection. We create spaces where meeting someone new feels natural, inclusive, and actually fun.

We host three curated age groups: 21–35, 30–45, and 45–65, so every guest walks into a room designed for their stage of life. Across the city, we run a rotating lineup of event styles: matchmaking, speed dating, activity‑based nights, sober‑friendly gatherings, and classic mixers. Each one built to make starting conversations easier and meeting people more intentional.

At its core, Thursday is about bringing people together in meaningful ways, building community, and making dating feel human again.

    ✨In honor of pride month, Barry's will be donating their proceeds for this event to the Trevor Project. The Trevor Project is a non-profit organization that offers crisis counseling, peer support, advocacy, and resources for LGBTQ+ youth by providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services. ✨

    Welcome to Barry’s
    Step into Barry’s, the Red Room that’s become a cult favorite for a reason—lights low, music loud, energy high, and a community that makes you feel instantly part of something. For this event, we’re diving into Barry’s signature Abs & Ass class: a glute‑focused, core‑driven workout designed to lift, tighten, and shape through intentional movement and high‑intensity intervals. You’ll rotate between treadmill and floor (or choose Double Floor), guided every step of the way by best‑in‑class instructors who offer options for every level. Whether you’re walking, running, lifting heavy, or modifying, the Red Room meets you where you are and pushes you just enough. It’s the perfect shared sweat to break the ice and start the night with momentum.

    Welcome to Squatters Pub
    After class, we’ll walk together to Squatters Pub, a longtime staple in Utah’s culinary and craft‑brewing scene and the perfect spot to unwind and connect. Known for its sustainable, locally sourced menu and award‑winning beers, Squatters blends warm pub energy with a lively social atmosphere. We’ll have light bites ready for you to snack on while you mingle, sip something delicious, and settle into the second half of the night. With handcrafted cocktails, great conversation, and a relaxed vibe, Squatters sets the stage for easy connection and a feel‑good finish to the evening.
