Discover pop-up parties
& meet new people.

Welcome

Chowbunga is a platform to meet new
people by hosting or attending Pop-ups.

What’s a Pop-up?

A private affair among hand-picked guests,
that pops up in a unique setting.

Unite to party!

Join a community that relies on member-driven trust, safety, and cost-sharing tools to throw parties and meet.

A new social option!

Avoid typical going-out life. Share experiences
and make genuine connections with people
you want to meet.

Unite for value!

Request an invite to experiences like open bar
artisan cocktails, served by the best bartenders
in town.

Be a superhero!

Rescue new friends and old from
the ordinary by hosting your own Pop-up.
