🎃Halloween Special: Meet New People & Make New Friends | Ages 25–45

Halloween is a great excuse to get out, meet some new people and have a night that's a little different from the usual social event. 👻

But if you're coming on your own, walking into a room full of strangers can still feel a little awkward.
That's where Fast Friends comes in.

We've created a relaxed, hosted experience where you don't have to worry about who to approach or how to start a conversation. We'll guide you through fun, themed conversation rounds that give you an easy reason to talk, laugh and connect with different people throughout the evening.

Whether you come dressed up, come with a friend or arrive completely solo, you'll have an easy way to get involved and meet people.

📌 Important: Alibi Room Service Charge
Alibi Room applies a mandatory 20% service charge to groups of 8 or more, in accordance with their venue policy.
This charge is separate from your Fast Friends ticket and is applied to your food and/or drink bill at the venue.
We're mentioning this clearly in advance so there are no surprises when settling your bill on the night.

🌟 COMING ALONE?
You're in great company.
Most people come on their own, so you definitely won't be the only person arriving without knowing anyone.
✅ Lillian will welcome you when you arrive.
✅ You'll have an easy way to start conversations.
✅ You'll meet different people throughout the evening.
✅ You won't be left wondering who to approach.
You can simply show up, join the first conversation and let the evening take it from there.

📌 ABOUT ATTENDANCE
The Meetup RSVP number doesn't tell the whole story.
Members from 8 local Meetup groups are also invited to join us, so the final group can be considerably different from the RSVP number shown on Meetup.
If you're planning to come, booking your ticket in advance helps us know the actual numbers and reserve the right amount of space for the group.
