What’s It Like?

Join us for a holiday themed Skip the Small Talk where you can dress for the kind of Holiday Party you like to attend (Ugly/holiday Sweater, New Years, holiday pj, or costume, etc). There will be holiday tunes, a raffle, and good vibes all throughout along with what you may already expect from a Skip The Small Talk event: meaningful connection with strangers!

Bring your friends (or come by yourself) and spend your Thursday night at an event where you know everyone else is there for the same reason.

We'll be offering "big talk" conversational prompt on them to get you started, and we'll have lots of structure to make sure that you actually talk to people and that it's not awkward.

There will be beer and food available for sale!

Check-in for this event will begin around 6:45 pm. Please do your best to arrive before 7:00 pm so we can begin as close to on time as possible.

Skip the Small Talk is dedicated to providing an inclusive, welcoming environment for everyone. Check out our safety policy here: tinyurl.com/ststSafety

Need Accessibility Accommodations?

We are happy to offer live ASL upon request. Due the use of one-on-one conversations during the event, we request at least five days' notice to make sure we are able to provide an ASL interpreter for each person who needs them. Please reach out to us at [email protected] so we can discuss what we can do for you.
