Our Story
Built on the belief that community should be accessible to everyone
DFW Young & Social was founded in 2021 by Alexi Noble and Marco Panama with one simple idea: making friends as an adult shouldn't feel this hard. So they built a place where it doesn't.
What started with 10 events a month now runs 110+ every month across a 4,720 sq ft venue in Farmers Branch — dance floors, creative studios, game rooms, and a community of 30,000+ who showed up just like you did. Featured by NBC 5 Texas Today, What's Up Dallas, and Shoutout DFW.
