Host Application
Hosting Playground Social is a position of trust.
You're opening your space to the community. You're welcoming people in, setting the tone for the evening, and making sure everyone feels like they belong in the room. That matters to us, and we take it seriously.
What hosting looks like
You open the doors. You welcome the room. You give a brief hello at 7:45pm. About three minutes, no selling, no announcements. Then you let the evening be what it's going to be. There are no pitches, no panels, no presentations. The best hosts are the ones who make the room feel easy to be in.
How we choose hosts
We look at your space, your energy, and whether it's the right fit for a Playground Social. The venue needs to work for the group. The person needs to understand what the evening is about. We make hosting decisions eight to twelve weeks out so there's time to get it right.
What you'll need
A safe, accessible venue suitable for 50 to 200 guests
Light grazing and beverages, including thoughtful non-alcoholic options
A brief welcome at 7:45pm (approximately three minutes, no selling or self-promotion)
Six photographs of your space and a thirty-second walkthrough video
Agreement to uphold the Host Behaviour Boundaries and Playground standards
