Give your members a reason to meet offline. Create concerts, hiking trips, wine tastings, or exclusive singles parties — all managed from your admin panel.
You're probably here because
Your users match, chat... and then nothing happens. They stay on the app forever, never meeting in person. Engagement drops. They leave for apps that promise real connections.
Events change the game. When people have a specific place and time to meet — a cooking class, a hiking group, a speed dating night — they actually show up. Your platform becomes where real relationships start.
+43% growth in attendance for in-person dating events from 2022 to 2023, according to Eventbrite. The industry is shifting from endless swiping to real-world meetups. Bumble IRL, Hinge's "One More Hour" initiative, Court IRL — major players are investing millions in offline features.

Almost the same process from user mode is applicable in the admin panel as the site admin can create her/his own events or do it at some user’s request.

FAQ
Can I control whether members create their own events? Yes. In Settings, you can allow members to create events or restrict it so only admins can post. Useful if you want to curate all meetups yourself.
How do private events work? The organizer can set an event to "invite only." Only people who receive an invitation can join — others won't even see it in the public list.
Can I charge for event attendance? The base module handles RSVPs and limits. For paid ticketing, contact our team about custom integration with your billing system.
Does it work on mobile apps? Yes. Events appear on your Dating Pro website, Android app, iOS app, and VR platform.
