Connection. Community. Dance.

What happens when you bring strangers together, take away their phones, their words, and everything they usually hide behind?

NEO DARK SOCIAL is an immersive fusion dance and connection experience that invites you to step beyond your comfort zone through playful partner exercises, authentic relating, and blindfolded sensory exploration.

Guided by a continuous live set from DJ MarkiMark, the journey moves into the dark, where words give way to movement and presence, before transforming into an electrifying dance celebration until 5 AM.

Some things are better experienced than explained.

All dance styles and levels welcome. No partner or dance experience required.

Beyond the dance floor, enjoy The Cuddle Puddle Room, a cozy space to relax, enjoy tea, receive an optional tarot reading, or connect in a quieter setting.

Thanksgiving Potluck 🦃💛

Good food brings people together, too! Feel free to bring your favorite dish or snack to share with the community.

_You might forget their name, but not how they made you feel._

The Agenda

8:00–8:45 PM | Arrival

Every connection starts somewhere.

Arrive, enjoy the music, meet new people, grab a drink, and settle into the atmosphere.

8:45–9:30 PM | Crossing the Threshold

Leave the outside world behind.

Phones away! We begin with playful partner exercises and guided connection games to break the ice and step beyond small talk.

Doors close at 8:45 PM SHARP! No entry or re-entry until 11 PM.

9:30–11:00 PM | Into the Dark

Beyond sight. Beyond words.

The lights dim, conversation stops, and the music takes over. Explore movement, trust, and connection in unexpected ways.

Everything is optional and consent-led.

11:00 PM–5:00 AM | The Afterglow Social

From connection to celebration.

The doors reopen, conversation returns, and the music builds into an all-night fusion dance social with DJ MarkiMark.

Reconnect with someone you met in the dark, discover new dance partners, or simply lose yourself in the music.

Late arrivals are welcome from 11 PM onward.
