Portland, this week we're taking over The Downbeat at 7:00pm on Friday, March 6th to meet new people in-person.

What is a “Delete the Apps” Bar Takeover Party?

Wish you could just show up to a bar and know that everyone there is open to meeting new people (and if they're single or not)? Every week, we pick a time and a place to take over a bar to do just that - create an open space to meet new friends and lovers. It's totally free to join. We tell you the time and place and you simply show up and join the party.

When you get there:

• Go say hi to our hosts at the pink check-in table anytime between 7-9pm

• Grab color-coded stickers that tell people who you’re there to meet (friends, men, women, or everyone)

• Write a topic on our “Talk ___ To Me” stickers to make it easy for someone to approach you and start conversation

• Pick up a few “You’re Cute” cards - they’re blank on the back so you can give that cutie across the bar your name and phone number :)

And that’s it! These parties are what you make them so don't be shy - we attract a welcoming crowd - get out there and meet your people in person.

This week we'll see you at:

The Downbeat

Down in the basement of The Horizon Enterprise Building, The Downbeat Bar is built on music—live sets, DJs, playlists, and listening-centered experiences that feed the soul. An elegant, low-lit room below street level, designed to transport Portland’s BIPOC community and friends. We’re guided by cultural lineage and the after-hours: polished and raw, holy and heavy. Where craft matters; cocktails with intent, everyday food refined, and sound you feel in your chest.

Stop by for a night you won’t forget.

BE DOWN.
