Pitch Your Friend - IRL Dating Night

Hey everyone! Pitch Your Friend is back this Friday 4 September, and we have some spare seats, both as pitchers and just in the audience.

Got a friend (straight or LGBTQ+), who you'd love to pitch to a room full of singles? This is your chance! (This will be a mixed crowd) And if you'd like to get pitched at our [LGBTQ+ Pitch Your Friend on 25 September](https://www.meetup.com/lgbtq-meetup-group-at-the-london-art-bar/events/315879882/?recId=8b18a936-ec26-4ec1-a88b-1c98ce925237&recSource=event-search&searchId=d2dbaf1e-e577-480f-82f3-ac69c0d2ca03&eventOrigin=find_page%24all), bring your would-be-pitcher along on Friday.

Summer isn't over yet. This could be your late-summer meet cute, because the apps just aren't providing. Join us at [The London Art Bar](https://londonartbar.com/ "https://londonartbar.com") for Pitch Your Friend — a live IRL dating experience unlike anything else out there.

Friends take to the stage with a 3-5 minute slide presentation, making the case for their single friend to a room full of people ready to be convinced. It's warm, funny, and surprisingly moving. Part live show, part matchmaking, part brilliant night out. Whether you're single, pitching a friend, or just looking for a fun evening and some new faces, there's a place for you here. We'll have social mixers between each set of pitches and after the show, so plenty of time to meet people and work your charm if someone catches your eye.

Want to pitch your friend? Create a short slide deck (Google Slides, Canva, PowerPoint) showcasing the best things about your single friend. Take to the mic, deliver your pitch, and you might just be playing cupid. Pitcher tickets include a spot for you and up to two guests.

Joining the audience? Sit back and enjoy the show. The pitches are warm, funny, and really entertaining. And with social mixers built into the evening, there's plenty of opportunity to meet someone new whether you're single or not.

Key info for pitchers: Please arrive close to 7PM so we can run through the tech. Send your slides to hello@garethlewis.co no later than 12pm on the day of the event in Google Slides or PowerPoint format. Be mindful of your friend's privacy. Consult them on what to share, and don't include anything they'd be mortified by! Questions or accessibility needs? hello@garethlewis.co

*So, who would you pitch?*
