What people say
Real Stories
I was genuinely nervous going in — I'm not usually great at small talk with strangers. But within the first conversation I completely forgot to be anxious.

Marketing manager · Spring 2026
What I liked most was that everyone there actually wanted to be there. No one was on their phone. The conversation starters were a nice touch.

Joost B.
Software engineer · Spring 2026
I matched with someone I'd never have met otherwise. We've been on three dates since. I told my friend and she signed up for the next one immediately.

That's completely fine. Most people leave having had genuinely interesting conversations regardless. A good evening out, with the possibility of something more.
You have 24 hours from the moment of registration to cancel free of charge — no questions asked. After that, no cash refunds. Instead, your payment becomes a credit toward any future Spark Night event. This policy is legally defensible under Dutch consumer law for fixed-date ticketed events. If we cancel the event, you'll always receive a full refund.
Never. Your details are only visible to the Spark Night team. Other attendees do not have access to your information at any point.

Who We Are
About Spark Night

Spark Night was created in Rotterdam in 2026 by a group of friends who felt that meeting people romantically had become unnecessarily transactional. Swiping, filtered photos, crafted bios — far removed from how good relationships actually start.

So we built something different. A small, curated evening where the format does the work. You show up, you talk to people, and if there's something there — we help it along.

Our values

We believe the best connections happen in person, without pressure. Every decision — the venue size, the format, the guest curation — comes back to that belief.

Rotterdam-based

All our events take place in Rotterdam venues we love, chosen for atmosphere and intimacy. We're not planning to scale nationally — we'd rather do one city well.
