Claim your seat before the doors open.
We just made making friends, and keeping them, easier. All you have to do is say yes to something new every week.
Founding pricing is offered once, at launch. Join now and your rate stays locked for as long as your membership stays active.
Founding MemberYour standing seat at every table
Your membership includes:
·20 credits to book your seats
Credits are how members book. Instead of buying a ticket for every dinner, class, or social, you spend credits to secure your spot. 20 arrive every month, and up to 10 unused credits roll into the next, so a busy month never costs you a thing.
·Matched at every table
Your signup answers shape your first table. After each experience you tell us about the night, and every table after gets sharper.
·Supper clubs and matchmaking dinners
Signature supper clubs and friendship matchmaking dinners at the city's most beloved tables.
·Hands on workshops and game nights
Pottery, calligraphy, cake decorating, cooking classes, candle making, and evenings over mahjong tiles.
·Tastemaker panels and fireside chats
Pull up a chair with women building businesses and lives worth studying.
·Members only brunches, swaps and trips
Members only socials, coffee dates, book clubs, brunches, closet swaps, and weekends away with the women you've grown close to.
·Private group chat and +1 invitations
A private chat for members, plus eligible +1 invitations to welcome a friend into the fold.
·Member pricing and the Directory
Preferred member pricing on special ticketed events, plus the Directory: a members only collection of access codes to local Charlotte businesses, made just for A Party of Eight. Think a complimentary appetizer at the restaurant where your table met, or a member discount at the studio where you took your first class. The places you'll go back to with the women you met.

Guest SeatA glimpse of the table
What guests can still book:
·A few open seats, when they remain
The experiences we used to open to everyone now go to members first. Guests can book the handful of seats left over, if there are any left at all.
·Full price, every time
No credits, no rollover, no member pricing. A supper club seat is $145 for guests, while members reserve theirs at member pricing.
·Matched for one night
A PO8 host still greets you by name. But when the night ends, the invitations to your strongest matches' next tables go to members.
Most women decide at the table. Founding pricing is offered once, at launch.

Your rate stays locked as long as your membership stays active, even as pricing grows for the women who join after you.
No activation fee, ever
Future members pay it. You won't.
A say in what we build
Founding Members help shape the experiences, the partners, and the tables to come.
First access
First pick of new experiences and limited trips before anyone else.
You wonder, we answer.
What is the A Party of Eight membership?
It's a membership that knows who you should meet. One monthly fee gives you a balance of credits to spend across dinners, socials, classes, and experiences at some of the city's most beloved spots, and we decide who is in the room. You choose the experience. We save you a seat beside the right women.
How does it work?
Every month you receive 20 credits. Browse the calendar, choose what calls to you, and reserve with credits. We match you with women who share your interests and season of life. All you do is show up.
Do my credits roll over?
Yes. Up to 10 unused credits roll into the next month, so a busy month never costs you a thing.
What if I'm nervous to walk in?
You won't be walking in blind. Before you arrive, we've already chosen your table and the women around it. When you get there, a PO8 host greets you by name and makes the first introductions, so the conversation starts before you've even taken your seat. By the time the first drink arrives, you're simply one of the girls.
Who will I meet?
Women who are new to town, starting a new chapter, or simply ready for a fuller circle. Our experiences are women only and open to members 21 and over.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes, on experiences marked eligible for +1 invitations. It's the loveliest way to introduce someone to the table.
I travel a lot. Can I pause my membership?
Absolutely. Pause for up to one month at a time, and everything picks up right where you left off when you return.
What makes it a Founding Membership?
Founding Members are the first women through the door, and they help shape what PO8 becomes. Your $40 rate stays locked for as long as your membership stays active, even as pricing grows for the women who join after you.
