1. How does Club LA BOOM actually work?
We create a curated experience for singles in real life - apéros, gallery salons, pickleball, art tours, tennis, secret santa, and more (40-70 people).
The format does the heavy lifting: fun, non-tedious icebreakers get people past small talk fast, so you get to know someone quickly.
That's the real value - you don't have to walk the room yourself, we built the structure with brilliant partners so connection happens naturally.
Depending on the format, we add a second layer: the offline matching algorithm which pairs you with someone based on values and interests.
This way, you rely on your senses first, then matching tech brings you together with people you might not have considered otherwise.
And it works - our track record includes follow-up dates, friendships, business contacts, and love.

2. How does the matching actually work?
We believe in a hybrid approach.
First, the format breaks the ice with games and structure, so you’re relying on your own senses: who you click with, who makes you laugh, who you want to keep talking to.
As second layer, our algorithm works in the background based on a questionnaire you fill out 24 hours beforehand, and pairs you up after.
We believe in connection - romantic and platonic both count. So enjoy the night the way you would any good night out.
The moment you put pressure on to meet your future wife or husband by 10pm, you've taken yourself out of the game.
Loosen up, take it easy - consider it as first date with load of new people that's when the good stuff happens anyway :)

3. Who is this for?
People in their late 20s to mid 40s who are done with app fatigue and actually want something real.
You don't need to be the most outgoing person in the room - the format is built so introverts and extroverts both get a fair shot.
If you're looking for a serious connection rather than a numbers game, you're in the right place.

4. Can I get a refund or transfer my ticket?
Tickets are non-refundable, yet transferable same gender.
We plan intimate group sizes and gender ratios in advance, so last-minute changes throw off the whole format for everyone else in the room.
If something genuinely urgent comes up, reach out and we'll look at it case by case.

5. What if the gender ratio isn't balanced, or I don't get matched?
We actively manage ratios before every event and are quite good in getting this right.
Matching isn't guaranteed for everyone every time - that's not because the algorithm failed, it's because not every group produces a match for every person. The same way real life doesn't (and we can't guarantee who is showing up).
The value of the night isn't a guaranteed match.
The value for you it's a room full of people who are actually serious about meeting someone, while you learn how to approach people in real life and have a fun time doing it.

6. I'm nervous about going alone. What's it actually like?
Almost everyone arrives a little nervous and that's normal - 90% of our participants come alone.
The first round is built easy, low pressure - that's intentional.
Our hosts run the room, keep things moving, and make sure no one's left standing alone.
We’re not matchmakers. We’re here to give you a brilliant experience where meeting new people feels natural.
The rest is up to you :)
