On Monday, Gilt City DC and The Offline Society—a dating service dedicated to helping singles pair up IRLare celebrating the launch of their new collaboration, Dating In the District.

The Offline Society works to “host authentic, unpredictable experiences” for unattached Washingtonians, and their Dating in the District collection with Gilt City is similarly focused on providing date ideas that are more adventurous than a night with Netflix. The collection of discounted experiences is now for sale on Gilt City’s website, and it includes deals such as 39 percent off a tour and cocktails at One Eight Distilling, up to 30 percent off a “Couples Cook Bundle for Two” grocery delivery by From the Farmer, and up to 26 percent off a cheese tasting and pairing class at Glen’s Garden Market.

The Offline Society and Gilt City are celebrating their new partnership with a party on Monday, May 23, at Bonfire, during which time singles can mingle around the open bar (until 7 PM) and complimentary hors d’oeuvres. Monday night’s soiree is not a match-making event, though, so those who are romantically attached can also attend to share in the open bar and guilt-free dig into Bonfire’s marshmallow “campfire skillet.”

The launch party runs from 6 to 8 PM at Bonfire, 1132 19th St., NW. Tickets are $15 and may be purchased here.
