Thursday | Pop the Balloon | The Royal Tot

Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2025 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!

Join us at The Royal Tot, Charlotte’s tropical rooftop oasis, for a dating experience that’s as fun as it is flirty. In this playful twist on first impressions, a single guest takes center stage while a line of participants holds balloons. As the spotlighted single shares about themselves, participants can choose to pop their balloon if they feel it’s not a match—no hard feelings, just lighthearted fun. Those who keep their balloons intact stay in the game, leading to engaging conversations and potential connections!

Whether you’re new to town, newly single, or just looking to meet new people, this event offers a relaxed atmosphere with signature tiki cocktails and mocktails, easygoing icebreakers, and plenty of laughs. Come solo or bring your single friends—either way, you’re in for an unforgettable night of mingling under the stars.

See you there!
