About Event

​When was the last time you did nothing? No scrolling, no TV while eating, no podcast while walking... You get the point.

​And no, nighttime sleeping doesn't count. You're unconscious for that. We mean awake, with nothing to do and nobody needing anything from you.

​THIS IS A SPACE TO DO NOTHING.

​Two hours horizontal with blankets, music, and your phone locked  in a box.

​👉 PLEASE be on time (15:00 - 15:15 arrival window) to enjoy the full experience of this event.

​🌈DRESS CODE: to get the most of this event bring or come in cozy, soft clothing. Wear good socks ;) because you might want to leave your shoes at the door.

​👌 BRING: a cuddle toy, blanket or/an pillow to fully relax and go horizontal if you choose so. We have soft carpets you can lay on.

​🌈December 6th PROGRAM:

​Doors open - find your spot, say hi to a stranger, settle in (15min)

  • ​Intro to the event + how to actually switch off, because most people can't do it on command. We promise it's not a Ted Talk (10min)

  • ​Short guided meditation to drop you in the zone and out of your head (20min)

  • ​100 min of DOING NOTHING!
    *If that's too challenging - you can read.
    👉 Curated mid tempo playlists for your ears and soul ;)
    👉 The last stretch supported by 🎹 a live chill piano set by TBA

  • ​Coming back slowly. Stay lying down (10min)

  • ​Open floor - guided conversation around phone use, rest and whatever came up in the quiet. Then we stop steering and you hang out, make friends, connect with other beautiful queers (35min)

​👌 That's two hours horizontal, meditation included.

​👉 We finish at 18:00 on the dot, but our space and the cafe stays open till late so stay on if you're not done.

​👉 Do I need to be queer to come? No. The host is queer, the events are for everyone, allies are welcome!

​💶 Please bring a physical card with you to pay for your drinks/snacks, as you won’t have access to your phone till the end of the event

​🎟️ If you can't make it, please forward your ticket to a friend - we have no refund policy.
