Valentine’s Eve – LGBTQ + Unhinged Speed Dating at Sloop Brewing

🌈💘 Valentine’s Day Eve: Queer & Unhinged Speed Dating

Unhinged Dating Upstate @ Sloop Brewing Co.

Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be couples-only, awkward, or straight.
This is a queer-forward Valentine’s celebration built around connection, flirting, laughter, and community — with supportive allies always welcome.

This is our 4th Unhinged Dating event at Sloop, and our Valentine’s events are consistently our biggest of the year. Expect great energy, a full room, and lots of chances to connect.

💖 How the Night Flows (Low Pressure, High Vibes)

Check-in: 6:00 – 6:30 PM

We’ll kick things off with Valentine’s-themed games, including Queer Pong, icebreakers, and playful activities. This is the mixer — it’s flirty, fun, and makes talking to people way easier.

As the night goes on, we’ll move into speed dating, weaving it in naturally based on timing and the energy of the room. Nothing is rigid or rushed. We make sure everyone gets quality time to connect, and if you’re a few minutes late or need a moment to settle in, that’s totally fine. We’ve got you.

💬 Keep the Vibes Going (Optional, Promise)

We use the Pinyada app/website — totally optional and very chill.

If you want, it lets you:

• Connect before, during, and after the event
• Match for dating, friendship, or professional connections
• Chat or share info only if you both consent

💌 Second-date cards will be available to discreetly ask someone for a follow-up date.

🍻🍕 Drinks & Food

Sloop Brewing will have drinks flowing and food available for purchase throughout the night.
👉 Menu link so you can plan your snacks accordingly as flirting is better when you’re fed.

🛡️ Vibes & Safety

This is a consent-forward, respect-first space.

• Participation is always optional
• Staff is present and actively monitoring
• Zero tolerance for harassment or discrimination

Come as you are. Engage at your own pace. Leave feeling good.
