What Happens at a CitySwoon Event?

A profile can tell you who looks promising. A face-to-face conversation tells you whether there’s chemistry.

After every date at a CitySwoon event, attendees privately rate the connection. This gives us a clear picture of what happens after people actually meet, not simply after they view a profile, swipe or send a message.

What is a mutual five-star match?

After each date, both people privately rate the connection. When both give the date five stars, it counts as a mutual five-star match.

People can also get in touch when they both give four stars, so a five-star match is not the only way a conversation can continue.

More genuine chances to connect

At a CitySwoon event, you are not relying on a single introduction. You meet a series of compatible people selected for you as the event unfolds.

That gives you several opportunities to discover the kind of chemistry that can be difficult to judge from a profile alone.

Matching that learns from real life

Your feedback helps CitySwoon refine later introductions during an event and improve your matches over time.

Across many dates, this feedback also reveals broader patterns in the kinds of people who tend to connect. Those insights help improve matching at future events and online, while the chemistry and final choice remain entirely yours.
