After traveling around the world from Berlin to London to Lisbon to Malta to Mexico City, we have landed in Vancouver for a fourth year! 🇨🇦
📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
F*ck the Small Talk is an out-of-the-box social experience where strangers come together for an evening of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also just a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for an evening of games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you have been in Vancouver, every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. 🙌
📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?
We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (within groups of 3 people).
We'll have our own awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. (You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want.) You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭 (Introverts, you'll love it too ❤️.)
🧧 WHAT'S INCLUDED?
⏰ 3 hours of facilitated and curated activities👥 A space to meet new people in the least boring way possible🙌🏽 Access to the post-event WhatsApp group💛 Supporting our mission to slowly eliminate small talk around the world🎫 Also includes those pesky ticket fees!
🕹 HOW TO JOIN?
Our events are limited to 30 guests to ensure a cozy atmosphere. (More than that is a party!) We prioritise a balance in gender and cultural diversity. Request to join above!
📍 WHERE IS IT?
We host our events in awesome bars & parks across the city. The exact location will be revealed once we confirm your spot! 🎟️ You'll be able to check out the neighbourhood at the bottom of this page.
💛 WHAT THEY SAY
🗣 “This is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” -Sonya
🗣 “I loved F*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” -Brenda
🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! “ -Yaz
🗣 "This event gave back hope into me that in this busy chaotic world, creating meaningful connections is still possible. I would love to go for it once again! Whoever of you feel a strong lack of deep, mindful conversations, meaningful human connections, or just are craving for some new people, this is your event! Go for it!" -Swagata
