Thursday | One Year Anniversary Matchbox Night! | Vancouver

Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2026 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!

✨ Who says couples are the only ones who get to celebrate anniversaries?

At Thursday, we’ve been rewriting the rules of dating since day one. This January, we’re celebrating one year of helping singles connect in Vancouver, and we’re doing it in true Thursday style!

All ages welcome! Matchbox takes age into consideration

Matchbox Party!

Matching 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.

More about Match Box

• 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 <3

FAQs:

Q: What if I don’t get a match?
A: We aim to maintain a 50/50 male to female ratio but cannot guarantee that all attendees will show up, as life happens. If there is an uneven split, some matches will be paired platonically. These people receive a free ticket to a future event of their choice, valid for 60 days after this event.
