Shuffle It Up - A Queer-centered Mixer
Details
Shuffle It Up is back at Rocky’s Bar inside Austin Motel, bringing a playful queer-centered mixer to South Congress on May 21 at 7:00 pm. Think of it as a summer social with a twist: instead of awkward small talk, you’ll be working the room with a deck of cards, a specialty cocktail in hand, and plenty of chances to meet your people.
Hosted with Local Queer, this event turns mingling into a game. Grab a card at the door, follow the prompts as they’re called out on the mic, and see where the night takes you. You might:
- Find a match by pairing up with someone of the same suit
- Make a Full House by rounding up four other folks for a group chat
- Find a Straight by connecting with three matching suits in a row
- Discover your Pride Month squad, a new bar buddy, or your next summer hangout crew
The vibe starts with indoor mingling from 7:00-8:00 pm, then shifts to a refreshing poolside cool-down from 8:00-10:00 pm at one of Austin’s most iconic swimming pools. With Rocky’s tropical, retro energy, free-to-play shuffleboard nearby, and a crowd ready to make new connections, Shuffle It Up is equal parts mixer, game night, and summer kickoff.
Free to attend with RSVP required. Bring your best energy, your social sparkle, and a willingness to shuffle the deck and see who you meet.
