Start 2026 with New Faces at Patio Social in Rogers
Meeting new people in NWA doesn’t have to involve awkward networking events or endless app swiping. Patio Social returns to Onyx HQ in Downtown Rogers this month, creating space for genuine connections between professionals, creatives, and anyone looking to expand their circle.
Where Connections Happen
Patio Social keeps things simple. Show up, grab your complimentary drink, and start talking to whoever’s nearby. The crowd includes business owners, designers, newcomers asking for local recommendations, and people looking to expand their social circle beyond work friends. Some connections turn into collaborations. Others turn into weekend plans. The event doesn’t force either outcome.

What to Bring
Skip the business cards unless someone specifically asks. Patio Social works because people show up as themselves rather than their LinkedIn profiles. Bring your curiosity, openness to meeting people outside your usual circles, and willingness to stay longer than you planned when the conversation gets good.
The three-hour window gives you room to arrive fashionably late or leave early without missing out. You can work the room or plant yourself in one spot and let new people cycle through. Either approach works when everyone’s there for the same reason.
Patio Social runs monthly at rotating locations across NWA. Show up at the patio and see who you meet.
