Who shows up

You. Three ways.

Ambo · No. 047

"Cried at a dog video this week and is not ashamed."

Bold of you to assume
♠ Singles

Coming solo.

You're single, you're open to it, you walked through the door. That's the whole requirement. Games, conversation, good drinks, we'll take it from there.

♥ Wingmen

Bringing support.

Not here to date, just here to help. Wingmen facilitate, they don't participate. They get their own card with a real role in the room: a one-time intro card to use on someone their friend wouldn't approach themselves.

♦ Pairs

Already matched online.

Matched on Hinge or Bumble and not sure if there's actually something there? Use a Pairs ticket as a real-life preview before you commit to a sit-down date. You still participate as individuals — just tell us where you matched at checkout.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Not another bar. A distillery.

This is Meet Your Match at New Artisan Spirits a small-batch craft distillery in Dallas. Not just another singles mixer in a generic venue. The space, the drinks, the atmosphere all of it is curated on purpose.

If you put in the effort to show up, we'll make sure it was worth it.

The game of the night

Does assuming really make you an ass?

Not here it doesn't.

One card. One assumption. One reason to walk up to a stranger.

Every person gets a card at check-in. Printed on it: a funny assumption about a stranger in the room. Your job is to find the person it fits, hand it off, and keep the cards moving all night.

No groups. No rounds. No teams. The whole room is the game. You might end up with ten cards or none. Either way, you've talked to people you wouldn't have talked to otherwise.

One rule — never hold more than three cards at once.

Side B — the music

Our first mixtape.

This playlist isn't ours. It's yours. Every ticket comes with one question, and your answer goes straight onto the setlist — unfiltered.

(At the test night someone submitted "Knuck If You Buck." The room lost it. We're not curating that out.)

  1. 01
    Answer the prompt at checkout
    What song reminds you of a happy moment in your life?
  2. 02
    Every song goes into the playlist
    Curated, not filtered. You send it, we play it.
  3. 03
    Halfway through, we drop the mixtape
    Try to find the person who submitted your song.

Don't wait for the door price.
