Flirty, friendly, fun LGBT+ social & dating night with games, cocktails & good vibes. Flirt Club is turning ONE, come celebrate!

A queer space for flirting and friendshipThursday 1st October, 7:30–10:30pm

Flirt Club is turning ONE! 🎈

For the past year, queer people have walked through the doors of Flirt Club and found crushes, dates, kisses, lovers, new friends, whole friendship groups – and plenty of stories along the way.

So obviously, we're throwing a birthday party.

We're going all in on nostalgic kids' party vibes: balloons, birthday cake, party games, questionable decorations and a greatest-hits selection of your favourite Flirt Club activities from the past year.

We'll be celebrating some of the stories that have come out of our first year – from friendships and first dates to unexpected kisses and people who've found something much bigger than they were looking for.

And there's plenty of room for new stories to begin.

Whether you've been flirting with us since the beginning or this is your very first Flirt Club, you're invited to come celebrate, and maybe start a new story of your own.

As always, this isn't awkward speed dating or forced matchmaking. It's a relaxed LGBTQ+ social and dating night with playful activities, good drinks and plenty of space to actually talk to people and connect in whatever way feels right to you.

Come solo or bring your pals. Come looking for friendship, flirting, romance, community, a ridiculous birthday party, or simply a fun queer night out.

Come for the flirting. Stay for the friendships.

Welcome to Flirt Club. Flirty, friendly, fun.

🎈 Outfit suggestions

Each Flirt Club has a theme, and this month we're having a proper 1st Birthday Party.

Think nostalgic kids' party – but make it queer.

Party dresses. Birthday badges. Party hats. Primary colours. Ribbons and bows. Childhood party nostalgia. Something outrageously colourful. Or the outfit your younger queer self would have LOVED to wear to a party.

As always, dressing for the theme is completely optional. There's no expectation to dress up or look a certain way.

FAQs

What is Flirt Club?

Flirt Club is a queer space for flirting, friendship, and connection. It’s part playful social, part cosy night out. Think: playful party meets cosy queer hangout, with icebreaker games, conversation prompts, and plenty of space to just chat. You join at your own pace: flirt, make friends, or just sip a drink and people-watch.

We’re proudly LGBTQ+ inclusive, ENM-friendly, sex-positive, and consent-led — but you don’t need to be any of those things (except queer 🏳️‍🌈) to come along. All you need is kindness, curiosity, and a willingness to meet new people.

Is it trans & non-binary inclusive?

Always. Flirt Club is proudly trans, non-binary, genderfluid, intersex and questioning-inclusive. This is a space where your pronouns are respected, your identity is valid, and your joy is celebrated.

Can heterosexual cis men come?

Straight men allies, we love you but to truly foster the safe queer vibes we want at Flirt Club, we ask you sit this one out. Flirt Club is a space made by and for queer people. Whether you’re questioning, trans, bi, ace, gay, pan or somewhere in-between, you’re welcome here.

Do I have to be single to come?

Not at all! Flirt Club isn’t just for people looking to date, it’s for anyone who wants to meet new queer people and feel part of a community. Come single, partnered, poly, curious, heartbroken, or “it’s complicated.” You set your own boundaries — flirt, friend, or just vibe.

Do I have to flirt? What if I just want to make friends?

You never have to flirt. Flirt Club is just as much about friendship as it is about romance or sex. You can spend the whole night making new pals, joining games, or having deep chats. Flirt if you want to, friend if you don’t.

I’m coming alone — will I feel awkward?

We get it, walking into a room alone can feel scary. The good news? Loads of people come solo, and the night is designed exactly for that. There are games, gentle prompts, “curiosity corners” and hosts to help get you chatting. You won’t be the only one flying solo, and you probably won’t leave that way!

Is this a speed dating event?

Nope — no timers, no forced small talk. This isn’t speed dating. It’s more like a playful queer social with optional icebreakers, games and cosy spaces to chat at your own pace. If a conversation gets good, you’re free to stay with it.

What should I wear?

Each Flirt Club has a theme, and this month we're having a proper 1st Birthday Party. Think nostalgic kids' party – but make it queer.
