LONDON'S MATCHDAY MEETUP

Some assists happen off the pitch.

One room. One big screen. A crowd of Gooners who came for the match and stayed for whatever happens next.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Four things you can count on

No pressure, no small talk you didn't sign up for — just a good room and a good game.

Big screen, loud room

The full matchday atmosphere — properly loud when it counts.

Icebreakers all day

Pregame, half-time, and full-time — mingling and icebreakers, not stuck in a seat.

Two ways in

General for the full-volume room, VIP for something smaller and hosted.

Zero pressure

Friendship, romance, or just a good afternoon of football — entirely up to you.

FAQ

A matchday meetup for London football fans. One room, one screen, one fixture — friendship or something more, entirely up to whoever's in the room.

Balham, South London — about 2 minutes' walk from Balham station (Northern Line and National Rail). Exact address is sent with your ticket.

Saturday 10 October — Arsenal vs Leeds United.

Doors 11:00am, kickoff 12:30pm, wrapped up by 4:00pm.

A big screen, a good crowd, and icebreakers pregame, half-time, and full-time — it's a standing, mingling event rather than a seated one. General is the full-volume room; VIP is smaller and a little more curated.

General is a normal ticket — buy it and you're in, same as any event. VIP is a smaller, hosted room, so it needs a short application first, reviewed within 48 hours before you get a payment link. Both are split by gender — 75 women / 75 men for General, 12 women / 12 men for VIP.

General: fill in the form, pay, done. VIP: fill in the short application first — we review every one within 48 hours, and if you're approved, a payment link lands in your email.

Arsenal shirts are mandatory for entry — home, away, third, retro, doesn't matter, just Arsenal. No refunds if you turn up in anything else, so don't risk it.

Just enough to get you a ticket and keep the room split evenly by gender. Nothing's sold, advertised against, or shared with other guests.

The normal ones. Be decent to the people around you. Harassing another guest, aggressive behaviour, giving us false details, or reselling your ticket gets you removed on the spot and blocked from future events. Past that — have a good time.
