Gatherings is an 18+ social app that helps adults meet new people through small, hosted, real-world activities.
Members share their genuine preferences and receive invitations which ‘match’ their stated preferences to Gatherings that fit their interests, comfort and availability — without swiping or cold messaging. And no AI.

Launching first in Vancouver, Gatherings works to bring Members, approved Hosts and Local Venues together to make meeting new people feel more thoughtful, comfortable and human. Not in Vancouver – become a trailblazer to show interest and bring it to your community faster!

Create a profile, share your your preferred starting place or community, availability, first & second language, food or allergy restrictions and a few more genuine preferences like how spicy can food be “dog-friendly gatherings”- or not. And how far away you’d attend an event.

Complete the initial onboarding, then apply to become a Host. Once approved, you’ll gain access to your Host Dashboard, where you can view local member insights and begin creating Gatherings.

Host dashboard and Gathering setup

You’ll start with broad groupings such as age range, food preferences, and language, then refine your choices to find members whose interests and preferences match your Gathering.

Matching preferences for a Gathering

Then members whose preferences match the Gathering receive the invitation, can view the details, and choose to attend by committing to show up with an RSVP Token.
