[Save your spot linked here! ](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/single-in-the-summer-a-rooftop-luau-social-tickets-1991416103172?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true) This one's for the person who's over the apps. Who just moved to Columbus and doesn't really know anyone yet. Whose entire friend group somehow got married overnight. Who works from home and can't figure out how to meet people without it feeling completely weird. We know. We get it. We've literally been there — it's a big part of why we started DateColumbus in the first place. So come as you are. No agenda, no pressure. Just good people, good drinks, and rooftop vibes that feel like a mini summer escape right here in Columbus. We've got the **Paddle Club** all to ourselves — a massive private rooftop bar with giant Connect Four, plenty of tables, and cozy lounge seating. It's the perfect setup to grab a tropical drink, throw on your lei, and see who you meet. 🌺 Lei included with every ticket 🍹 Tropical drink specials all night Private rooftop — just our group ☀️ Good vibes only

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who enjoy talking to people from other countries, and those who would like to discuss international travel and culture, and who enjoy getting together for good conversations."
