TL;DR: Whether you’re a natural conversationalist or someone who takes a little time to warm up, Lunaire events are designed to make you feel at ease. Here’s how to get the most from the night, without pretending to be someone you’re not.
Let’s Start With This: You Don’t Have to Be “Extroverted” to Enjoy a Lunaire Night
Our rooms are full of people from all walks of life. Some come straight from work, some come solo, some bring a friend. Some are confident talkers. Others just want one great conversation.
And that’s the beauty of it.
Lunaire isn’t about standing out. It’s about easing in.
What to Expect When You Arrive
A softly lit venue that feels warm, not intimidating
Hosts to greet you and help you settle in
A room where people are open, but not over the top
Quiet moments, gentle introductions, and a flow that never feels forced.
No speed dating. No icebreakers. No awkward “go around the room” energy. Just a low-pressure atmosphere with space to be yourself.

If You’re Naturally Social...
You’ll love the openness of the room. People want to connect. You don’t have to fake interest or push conversations forward. Things flow easily.
Make the most of it by:
Being the one who opens a small circle up to someone standing nearby
Starting with an easy compliment or shared moment ("That cocktail? So good.")
Letting conversation unfold, rather than steering it somewhere heavy
You're not expected to carry the room—just to be part of it.
If You’re More Shy or Reserved...
You’re not alone. So many people come to Lunaire who feel the exact same way.
And the night is built with that in mind.
Here’s what helps:
Arrive early to ease in before it gets busy
Let a host know, it’s what we’re there for.
Ask one open-ended question and let the other person lead for a bit.
Take breaks if you need them. There’s no pressure to “work the room”.
The quiet ones often make the deepest impressions.
You Don’t Need to Have a Strategy. Just a Willingness.
You’re not here to impress. You’re here to connect and be yourself.
The only “preparation” you need is:
Show up with openness
Let go of the outcome
Be curious
Whether you talk to five people or one, the night is a success if it feels genuine.
The Most Magnetic People in the Room?
They’re not always the loudest. They’re not the most “put together.”They’re the ones who are present. Engaged. Honest. Kind.
And that can be you. On your best, quiet, or most curious day.
