Everything you want to know about Vently.

Vently is a location-based social events app that helps you discover what is happening near you and find people to go with. You open the app, see local events in San Francisco, see who is going, and join the plan. The goal is simple: get you off the feed and into real life.

Vently works in three steps. First, discover events happening near you, the app surfaces local events in San Francisco across art, music, food, sports, social meetups, and wellness, updated daily. Second, see who else is interested in the same events. Third, join the plan and go. It is that straightforward.

Yes. Vently is free to download on iOS. The core experience, discovering local events, seeing who is going, and joining plans, is free.

Vently is live in San Francisco right now. We are expanding to Los Angeles, New York, Miami, London, and Paris. Download the app in San Francisco and you will be ready when we launch in new cities. Sign up to be notified when Vently comes to your city.

Vently surfaces a wide range of local events: gallery openings and art nights, live music and DJ sets, food and dining events, sports and outdoor activities, social meetups, and wellness events like group runs and yoga. The calendar covers things to do in San Francisco today, tonight, and this weekend.

Download the Vently iOS app, turn on your location, and you will immediately see local events happening near you. The app is location-aware from the start, you do not need to manually set a city or neighborhood.

Yes. That is one of the things that makes Vently different from every other event app. Vently shows you which of your connections are interested in or going to the same events. It turns a solo decision into a shared one.

Eventbrite is a ticketing platform. It tells you about events and sells you tickets. It does not tell you who else is going, and it does not help you make a social plan. Vently is a social events app, the social layer is the product. You see what is happening AND who is going, which makes it a lot easier to actually go.

Instagram is an attention platform. Its job is to keep you on the feed as long as possible. Vently has one job: get you off the screen and to an event. Different goal, different experience.

Meetup focuses on recurring groups and interest-based communities. Vently focuses on what is happening right now, near you, tonight or this weekend, and who is going. It is real-time local event discovery with a social layer, not group management.

No. Vently is open to everyone. Download the app and start discovering local events in San Francisco immediately. No application, no waiting list, no gatekeeping.

The primary Vently experience is the iOS app. That is where the live event calendar, social connections, and real-time discovery happen. The Vently website covers the key information, but the app is where you actually go out.

If your city is not yet live, sign up on our cities page and we will notify you when Vently launches near you. The cities with the most interest get prioritized for launch.

We have not announced specific dates yet. Los Angeles, New York, Miami, London, and Paris are all on the expansion roadmap. Sign up at the cities page and you will be among the first to know.

Vently is for anyone in a city who wants to go out more, meet people, and make real plans. Whether you just moved to San Francisco, feel like you have been missing out on what the city has to offer, or just want a better way to find things to do near you, Vently is for you.

The Vently app learns what kinds of events you are interested in based on what you explore and join. Turn on notifications in the app and you will get alerts when events that match your interests are happening nearby.
