βSold out or can't make it? Drop us your email and we'll keep you in the loop for the next one! π
βAfter traveling around the world from Berlin to London to Lisbon to Malta to Mexico City, we have finally arrived in Montreal for the first time ever! π¨π¦
βπ¦ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
βββF*ck the Small Talk is an out-of-the-box social experience where strangers come together for an evening of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. Itβs also just a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
βββJoin us for an evening of games, talks, and connections with friends you havenβt met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you have been in Montreal every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. π
βπ HOW DOES IT WORK?
βWe start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3 people).
βWe'll have our own awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. (Youβll never have to speak in public if you donβt want) You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. π (introverts, you'll love it too β€οΈ)
β𧧠WHAT'S INCLUDED?
ββ° 3 hours of facilitated and curated activities
π₯ A space to meet new people in the least boring way possible
ππ½ Access to the post-event WhatsApp group
π Supporting our mission to slowly eliminate small talk around the world
π« Also includes those pesky ticket fees!
βπΉ HOW TO JOIN?
βOur events are limited to 30 guests to ensure a cozy atmosphere. (more than that is a party!) We prioritize a balance in gender and cultural diversity. Request to join above and we'll give you an answer in less than 48 hours!

βπ WHAT THEY SAY
ββπ£ βThis is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.β - Sonya
ββπ£ βI loved F*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!β - Brenda
ββπ£ βLively, interesting, introspective, completely open and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! β - Yaz
βπ£ "itβs a wonderful experience, itβs like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe youβll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

βπ MEET YOUR HOST
βSalut, Iβm Sarah! I have always been passionate about building high-trust communities and third spaces. For work Iβm a creative technologist and AI/ML Product Manager based in Montreal, Canada. I'm also deeply curious and interested in emerging technology, cognitive science, and practices of deeper relating (mettΔ, somatics, circling, Socratic dialogue).
βYouβll likely find me awestruck out in nature, hosting friends and family for tea, perusing corners of a vintage market, caffeinated at a bookstore, in ΕavΔsana, or unraveling life through writing. I look forward to hosting you at FTST! π

π€ QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE
ββ£ Can I come alone?
Of course, in fact, we encourage it!
ββ£ Can I be late?
Please don't. We start 15 min after the official start. Late arrivals tend to disrupt the flow of the event.
ββ£ Can I bring my pet/llamas?
It's always a yes for us but ask us beforehand, please.
β£ Can I get a refund if I can't make it?
Unfortunately, we do not offer refunds or ticket transfers to another event date if you cannot attend with a notice of less than 4 days notice. However, feel free to pass on your ticket to a friend, provided they also sign up the form :)
