    Questions, answered.

    Everything you need to know before showing up to a Link & Chill event. Still stuck? Email anupriya.roy@linkandchill.com.

    • What is Link & Chill?

      Link & Chill is a real-life social meetup community in Mumbai, Bangalore and Pune. We run small, curated events — speed friending, board game nights, hikes, brunches, rooftop socials and community trips — for people who want to actually build a social life, not just collect Instagram followers.

    • How do I join an event?

      Browse upcoming events on our events page, pick one that looks good, and RSVP. If the event has a ticket price, you'll pay during signup. You'll receive event details (venue, time, what to bring) once your spot is confirmed.

    • Do I need to come with a friend?

      No — most people come alone. Every event has a built-in structure (a run, a game night, a dinner with seats) so you're never the person standing alone holding a drink. Coming solo is the default, not the exception.

    • Who shows up to Link & Chill events?

      Most attendees are 22–35, working in tech, design, finance, consulting or media. Usually people who recently moved to a new city, or who are tired of the same three friends. Everyone is verified before they can RSVP.

    • Which cities do you run events in?

      We currently run events in Mumbai, Bangalore and Pune. Each city has its own regular cadence of meetups — see the Mumbai, Bangalore or Pune pages for upcoming events in that city.

    • How much do events cost?

      Pricing varies by event — some are free, most are between ₹299 and ₹999, and community trips are priced separately. Verified community members get discounted member pricing on most paid events.

    • How do I pay for an event?

      Paid events accept UPI. After you RSVP, you'll see the UPI ID and a QR code to pay. Submit the transaction reference and we mark your spot as confirmed once the payment is verified by an admin.

    • Can I cancel my registration and get a refund?

      Yes — you can cancel up to 48 hours before the event starts and we'll refund the amount to your original UPI account. Cancellations within 48 hours of the event are non-refundable since the venue and headcount are locked in.

    • Why do I need to be verified before I can RSVP?

      We ask for your Instagram or LinkedIn handle so admins can confirm you're a real person before letting you into a small-group event. This is what keeps the room safe and the vibe right. Verification usually happens within a few hours.

    • What if no events are open in my city right now?

      We post new events every week. Sign up with your email so we can let you know when the next batch lands, or follow @linkandchill on Instagram for the heads-up.

    • Can I host or partner on an event?

      Yes — venues, brands and creators can partner with us on events. See our Work With Us page for what we're open to, or email anupriya.roy@linkandchill.com.

    • I have a question that's not answered here.

      Email anupriya.roy@linkandchill.com or DM @linkandchill on Instagram. We reply to everything.
