Fight social isolation in Northwest Arkansas. Vibe Tribe NWA helps young professionals (ages 25-44) make friends in Bentonville, Fayetteville, Rogers, and Springdale. Join our FREE speed-friending events and small-group hangouts across NWA.

We grew from a single Reddit idea and an empty first meetup into a steady calendar of speed-friending nights and small-group hangouts run by volunteers. Along the way we partnered with local organizations, tried simple conversation games that make it easy to say hello, and kept the door open to anyone new or shy. Recent events regularly draw 60+ people, and more than 225 neighbors have joined at least once. Therapists in the area now recommend our gatherings, and local media has noticed. Most important, people are finding real friendships—roommates, hiking buddies, and reasons to stay in NWA.
