We’ve had many followers reach out to us about doing a singles event, so we decided to try something new! We are using a new event-based dating app called, Hooked, so guests who are single can see who else attending is open to meeting people during Best of San Diego Party. Download the Hooked app and create your profile ahead of time with this link: https://hooked-app.com/event-promo/best-of-san-diego-party. Ticket holders will receive the access code when early access opens. Early access goes live on Tuesday, August 4, 2026, at 6:00 PM. the event won’t open until 72 hours before the event starts to encourage guests to meetup in person shortly after matching. It will open on August 4th at 6pm PST.
Come August 4th at 6pm PST, app users will then be able to join the event via access code and see anyone else who has joined at that time to start connecting with fellow singles. Singles will continue to join throughout the party and post event, as access closes 48 hours post event. Users should continue to check back to see if anyone new has joined up until access closes!
