HOW IT WORKS
NextMatchup offers three unique ways to connect in real life:
Matchmaking for Couples, Dinner with Strangers, and Meetups with Creatives.
Whether you're looking for love, new friendships, or creative collaboration, there's a category tailored for you.
We host bi-weekly events every second and last Saturday of the month, matching people based on their interests, intentions, and location to create safe and meaningful experiences.
Matchmaking for
couples
- Tell us about yourself and what you’re looking for in a partner — values, vibe, and what matters most.
- Every second and last Saturday, we pair you with someone who truly fits your preferences.
- Confirm your availability by the Wednesday before (11:59 PM) to receive your match and meetup location.
- Get match details via app and email. Use in-app chat to break the ice and plan your meetup together.
Dinner with Strangers
- Pick your preferences – Let us know your location, group size, and dining style.
- Step out of your comfort zone – Join three to six other strangers for dinner, in real life.
- Happening every second and last Saturday. Update your calendar by the Wednesday before (11:59 PM).
- Receive match and venue details via app and email. Use in-app chat to plan ahead with your group.
Creative Meetups
- Choose your interests and how you love to collaborate — whether you’re a designer, writer, musician, or something in between.
- Every second and last Saturday, we group you with 2–5 like-minded creatives in your city for meaningful in-person conversations.
- Update your availability by the second or last Wednesday (11:59 PM). You’ll receive match details via app and email, including where to meet.
- Use the in-app chat to connect, share ideas, and coordinate before the big day.

The event felt like a curated experience, not just a meetup. I’m a creative, and ‘Meetups with Creatives’ gave me real collaboration opportunities.
