Friends in Philadelphia

Make friends in Philadelphia.

Philadelphia is a big city with a small-town habit of sticking to the people you already know. The Philadelphia pool is open.

The Philadelphia pool is open

WeVenture is forming crews in Toronto first. In Philadelphia, sign-ups go into a local pool, and a crew forms once enough people nearby want the same thing and fit the same week. You can also choose an online crew in the meantime.

Free for adults 18+. No swiping, no browsing profiles.

Ideas for a Philadelphia crew

What a crew in Philadelphia could do.

Your crew forms around one shared interest and votes on the actual plans. Here is where a few of them could start.

  • Cycling

    Ride the Schuylkill River Trail out toward Manayunk.

  • Hiking

    Walk Forbidden Drive through Wissahickon Valley Park.

  • Local food

    Meet at Reading Terminal Market and pick a different counter each week.

Places named here are public spots a crew might choose. WeVenture is not affiliated with them.

Close to home

Philadelphia neighborhoods a crew could meet in.

Crews form around people who live close enough to meet every week, so where you live matters as much as what you love.

  • Fishtown
  • Northern Liberties
  • Rittenhouse
  • South Philly
  • Manayunk
  • West Philly

How it works

From a sign-up to a plan on the calendar.

  1. Tell us what you love

    Tap the interests that fit you and the evenings you are usually free. It takes a couple of minutes.

  2. Meet your crew

    WeVenture matches you with people who want the same thing and fit your week. You meet as a group.

  3. Four meetups

    The app plans your first four meetups. After that, everyone privately decides whether to keep going.
