Sunday | Mystery Pairing | Baltimore

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

Hey Baltimore, can't wait to see you all at Motte Restaurant & Bar! Motte Restaurant & Bar brings the beauty of Korean and American flavors to the table with style and an elevated touch. Their historic building was built in 1903 and was originally a fireplace mantel factory. The building has been at the center of Baltimore commerce for over a century.

Pairing will be powered by Matchbox. It’s a software that uses relationship science to find you your most compatible match at the party. The algorithm has matched more than half a million people to date, across 40 countries. It optimizes for long-term compatibility, based on values—but it’s up to you to see if you’ll click.

How it works:

• Upon arrival, you’ll take a matching questionnaire built by Matchbox's team of relationship scientists and curated by your host.
• The Matchbox algorithm will identify your optimal match at the party, based on relationship science, AI, and Nobel Prize-winning economics.
• After mingling with the whole group, matches are revealed!

What to expect:

• The matching process is highly intentional—come with an open mind.
• If your match isn’t love at first sight, that’s okay! The algorithm is designed for long-term compatibility, so at baseline, you’ll be values-aligned.
• At the end of the day, this will be a great group of single people. Enjoy meeting everyone, and remember to be kind.

Please plan to arrive by 6:00 PM to check in and get settled.
This event depends on everyone being present so the algorithm can accurately create matches based on your answers.

The Mystery Pairing will begin promptly at 6:30 PM, and anyone arriving after this time will not be able to participate. This is to ensure the experience runs seamlessly.

The first clue drops at 6:30 PM sharp, and once it’s released, we won’t be able to add late arrivals to the pairing process.

🪪 PHYSICAL I.D. REQUIRED. NO REFUNDS. 21+

🥰 Many attendees (40%) come by themselves, so even if you’re the only single in your friendship group, don’t hesitate to join us solo. You’ll find yourself in great company.
