From Birthday Parties to World Cups: The Events That Blow Us Away

Our organisers have created everything from FIFA World Cup watch parties and charity galas to yoga retreats, birthday dinners, and wild swimming meetups.

In this post

When I built Who's In, I imagined yoga classes and birthday parties. I was spectacularly wrong about the 'simple' part. Our organisers have taken this platform to places I never imagined — FIFA World Cup watch parties with 200+ guests, silent disco hiking groups, midnight astronomy meetups, charity galas raising thousands, a grandmother's 90th with family from four countries. From sport and fitness to food and drink, community and culture to professional conferences — here's every type of gathering our organisers have created, and why we're blown away by their creativity.

Run your studio on Who's In

Who's In Studio is built for yoga, Pilates, fitness, dance, martial arts, and wellness studios that want class scheduling, client booking, memberships, class packs, and QR check-in in one place — from $15.83/mo when billed annually. Guests book in one tap without downloading an app.

See the Studio product page or compare against Mindbody, Vagaro, and Glofox.
