Say yes to incredible experiences

Kaitlyn, SF

“My favorite experience through Tribe was an Art & Friends Night that our host organized for a small group of 6 people. We dressed up, had dinner at a beautiful restaurant with curated conversation about the arts, attended a ballet show, and then finished off with drinks at a speakeasy. I love that we got to connect over our shared love for the arts and support local artists!"

Paul, LA

“One of my favorite events in the city was a 12-person cocktail party inside a boutique clothing store on Fillmore St. The other guests were awesome, the curated conversation was meaningful, and I love that we met at a secret location that I would never have expected to have a social gathering in."

Christine, SF

“One of my favorite Tribe events was a Ladies' Wine Night with 13 other fabulous women my age. The host served us a 5 course tasting menu of conversations that turned a group of strangers into close friends. We laughed, we cried, and we walked away with lasting memories from a magical evening.”

Frequently asked questions

Wondering what the experience of being a Village Member is like? See our answers to frequently asked questions below!

1. What is the Village Membership?

The Village Membership gets you exclusive access to Tribe members-only experiences in your city. Tribe is a social club that organizes curated, invite-only experiences to help members connect authentically in their city.

2. How often does Tribe organize experiences?

We host 2-4 experiences on average each week!

3. How much does it cost to become a Village Member?

Members pay $69-$99 per month, depending on their billing frequency. This fee goes toward covering operating costs for the platform.

4. Are all experiences free for members?

No, each Tribe experience is unique and guests may be required to pay a fee to attend. Roughly half of our events are free, while the other half costs members $20-30 to attend.

The free events are generally low key events like a hike, game nights, etc., while the paid events are more curated and require us to cover the cost of food, beverages, a show tickets, etc.

5. What is the structure of the Tribe member experience?

After new members join, they will be invited to join a cohort of 30-50 people and go through a 90-day Cohort Initiation Period, with dedicated programming to help the members within each cohort connect with one another on a recurring basis.

The vibe is a bit like “Hogwarts Houses” meets “Fraternity/Sorority Pledging” meets “Summer Camp for Adults”.

Each cohort will have a dedicated day of the week - Mon, Tue or Wed, where every week on that specific day of the week, for the first 12 weeks, cohort members will be invited to an event where they know they’ll see the same faces over time. There will also be one special weekend experience for cohorts every month, i.e. 3 in total. These weekend experiences include an overnight retreat, a field day, and a cohort challenge weekend.

Once fully initiated, members can attend the full menu of a la carte events dedicated to their class!

NOTE - The cohort program is optional and members can opt out and choose to only attend the a la carte non-cohort events straight away. They have access to these events at all times regardless of whether they joined a cohort or not. Members may also have to wait a few months to get placed in the cohort program depending on when they join and how many new members have joined at the same time as them.

6. How often do new Cohorts start?

We are currently running Cohorts roughly once every 4-6 months. For example, the 3 Winter 2024 Cohorts started on Feb 5 and ran through the week of April 22. The deadline to join a Winter 2024 Cohort was Feb 15.

You can join as a new member at any time and start attending a la carte events while you wait to get invited to a Cohort for the next Cohort season. The 2nd Cohort season of 2024 will likely start in May or June!

Please note that the our ability to run the Cohort program is subject to the number of new members who have signed up.

7. What kind of experiences does Tribe organize?

Every week, Tribe tries to organize different activities to make sure members are able to develop meaningful connections.. These range from cocktail and dinner parties to hikes and outdoor picnics. Tribe will customize activities based on the interests and preferences of current members.

Our experiences generally fall into 3 categories:

1. Conversation-focused gatherings that have a theme
- These are either dinner format (<10 people) or cocktail format (10-20 people)
- There’s a theme with curated conversation prompts connected to it
- There are usually beverages and bites
- They cost $10-30 to attend
- They can be same-sex or co-ed
- Examples are our Women’s Wine Night, Men’s Fellowship Night, Art & Cocktails Night

2. Activity-focused gatherings that revolve around a shared interest
- Examples are yoga classes, live shows, game nights, hikes
- They can be free or have an additional cost based on the activity
- There’s usually dinner and/or drinks on either side of the activity

3. Weekend excursions
- These can be day trips or overnight trips to a destination
- Examples are wine-tasting in Marin, boating in Lake Sonoma, ski trips, camp retreats, etc.
- These can be low cost like an outdoor hike, but can also be $100+ depending on whether transportation and lodging are required.

8. I would like to become a Village Member. What are my next steps?

1. Join the membership waitlist.
2. We will invite you to an interview with us to make sure there is mutual fit.
3. You can officially become a member by accepting the invitation and providing your payment details.
4. Once your membership is confirmed, we will email you a survey to get to know you and your preferences.
5. Once you complete onboarding, we will start inviting you to different experiences based on your profile and place you in a Cohort!

9. How do you select the hosts?

We vet our hosts based on their personality profiles, skills as a gatherer, and knowledge of their city. We prefer hosts who have great energy and enjoy connecting others, as well as those who love planning fun events!

10. What if I don't like my experience as a Village Member?

Your first 30 days at Tribe comes with a no-questions-asked refund guarantee. You can end your membership at any time during the first 30 days and get a full refund for any membership fees you've paid if you’re not satisfied with your experience. After the first month, you can cancel your membership anytime by emailing support@findmytribe.co, but past payments will not be refunded.

11. Can I put my membership on hold if I will be traveling or unavailable for a long time?

Yes, you can! Here are some Important things to know about your vacation or other suspension:

- Temporarily suspend your membership for 30-90 days
- You may only use this option once every 12 months.
- Your membership will automatically resume after 90 days if you don't resume it before.
- If you want to suspend your membership for less than 30 days, longer than 90 days, or more than once every 12 months, you can cancel your membership permanently. Once members cancel their membership, they forfeit their place on the waitlist and must wait for at least 12 months before they can re-apply to join.

12. How do you decide who gets invited to an a la carte experience?

Once you fill out the member survey and tell us about yourself and your preferences, we will find others in your city or neighborhood who have similar interests, lifestyles, and compatible personalities. For each experience, we aim to invite members who are in similar stages of life (based on age and marital/family status) and where people enjoy similar activities. For example, we may organize an experience for a group of 25-30 year old single men in a city who all love the outdoors and enjoy playingvolleyball.

13. Can I invite a friend to join me for a Tribe experience?

Unfortunately, our member experiences are mostly invite-only and we curate the guest list based on the lifestyles, interests, and preferences of members to maximize the probability of connection. If you have friends who want to come to experiences with you, you can indicate this preference in your sign up questionnaire and invite them to become a Village Member as well. We will do our best to place them at the same experiences as you, but our ability to do so is, of course, subject to availability. We can usually accommodate requests from groups of 1-3 people to be placed in an experience together.

Some events are open to +1s, while others are open to the public. You can definitely invite your friends to those!

14. What does Tribe look for when evaluating prospective members?

We’re looking for members who are aligned with the 3 core values of Tribe - authenticity, vulnerability, and play - and are willing and able to participate meaningfully in our curated experiences. Tribe is currently focused on serving millennials between the ages of 25-50, but will expand to other demographics in the future.

15. What is the age range of members who have joined?

The age range of members is 25-50, with a median age of 31 and the majority of members being in their late 20s and early-to-mid 30s.

16. When and where are the events held usually?

Most of our events usually take place from 6.30-9.30pm on weeknights in the city. We will occasionally also organize weekend experiences.

17. How do members communicate with one another?

We connect members with each other via WhatsApp groups to help them stay in touch and self-organize impromptu hangouts. For example, our Ski/Snowboard WhatsApp group is full of people coordinating ski trips to the mountains!

18. How does Tribe communicate with members about upcoming events?

We primarily communicate with members via email. We send weekly emails with a summary of upcoming events. Members can also see the full calendar of all upcoming events on our calendar page.

19. Can I defer the start of my membership?

Yes, you can set the start date of your membership and billing cycle to any date in the future when you confirm with payment.

20. What exactly is a Cohort?

TL;DR: a tribe of new friends handpicked for you.

New members will get placed in a cohort of 30-50 like-minded peers. To ensure that our growing community continues to feel small. Each cohort will participate in a 90-day initiation period full of dedicated weekly programming for cohort members to connect with the same amazing humans more frequently! All of the fellowship of a fraternity/sorority pledge class, with none of the hazing.

21. What's the expected commitment when I join a Cohort?

TL:DR: During the Cohort Initiation Period, attend 6 out of 12 weekly cohort events, and 1 out of 3 weekend cohort events. No commitment once you're fully initiated.

Forming lasting friendships requires time and commitment. We want you to join a Cohort only if making new friends is a priority for you. But we also know that you're busy, and work and travel plans will sometimes make it difficult for you to attend an event every week. As long as you can come to the majority of the weekly events and one of the special weekend events, you’re welcome to pledge your allegiance to House Stark.

22. Can members meet other members outside of their Cohort?

TL:DR: During the Cohort Initiation Period, we will host all-cohort events 1-2 times per week. These will generally happen on Thursdays and occasionally on weekends. You'll have plenty of opportunities to meet new people outside of your cohort!

23. What kind of dedicated Cohort events can I expect?

Weeknight experiences will include dinner parties, themed cocktail format gatherings, men's events, women's events, and neighborhood meetups.

Weekend experiences will include:

1. A retreat where we'll get away for a camp weekend in the mountains full of playful activities and intimate conversations.

2. A field day where teams will compete against one another for the prize for most impressive cohort.

3. A challenge weekend where cohorts will have to complete city-wide scavenger hunts and social challenges to prove their loyalty to their cohort and to Tribe's movement.

24. How often will there be dedicated Cohort events?

TL;DR: once a week, sometimes twice.

During the initiation period, each cohort will be assigned a dedicated day of the week: Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday. We'll host a special event for your cohort every week on your designated weeknight. During each of the 3 months, we will also host a special weekend event for your cohort - a retreat weekend, a field day, and a cohort challenge. Throughout the initiation period, Cohorts will compete against one another to be crowned the “Best Cohort of the Season” title.

Think of this as a friendship bootcamp rooted in the same core values of authenticity, vulnerability, and play. A LOT of play.

25. How are Cohorts going to be picked?

TL:DR: We'll try to place you in a cohort with like-minded peers who we think you'll like, and those who share the same availability for your designated day of the week.

Don’t worry - the sorting hat will place you where you belong.

26. What happens after the Cohort Initiation Period is over?

TLDR: You can join a new cohort, attend monthly dedicated cohort meetups, and attend our curated a la carte experiences with all your new friends!

27. Can new members opt out of or defer getting placed in Cohorts?

Yes, but we don't recommend it! Just let us know during your member interview if you prefer to hold off on getting placed in a Cohort.

28. I am an existing member and have an issue that I need help with. Who can I contact for support?

You can email our support team at support@findmytribe.co and we’ll get back to you within 24-48 hours!

29. I need to cancel my membership. Can I get a refund for any unused portion of my billing period?

You can cancel your membership anytime by emailing support@findmytribe.co. However, any membership fees already charged to your account will not be refunded, regardless of whether you attended any events during the most recent billing period.

To avoid being charged fees during an upcoming billing period, please email support@findmytribe.co prior to your next billing date to cancel your membership or place it on hold.
