Make friends you see every week
Rococo is a weekly social club for young professionals that brings the same group together at the same time and place each week, so new friendships have the time they need to grow.

Making new friends shouldn’t be this hard.
These days, there are fewer natural ways to keep seeing the same people long enough to become friends.
Rococo is built to change that.
We bring together people who want to make new friends, give them something fun to do, and make it easy to keep seeing each other every week.
Make new friends super easily.
Everyone is there for the same reason.
You’ll join a group of other young professionals who are looking to meet people, hang out, and build new friendships too.
Meet people who want to make new friends
Skip the awkward part
No networking. No standing around wondering what to say.
Trivia, games, and group competitions give everyone something to do together, so conversations happen naturally.
See the same people every week
Instead of meeting someone once and hoping you somehow become friends, you keep seeing the same people week after week.
That gives friendships the time they need to grow.
What you get
A weekly hangout you don’t have to plan
Same time. Same place. Same people.
No group chat going back and forth for three days. No figuring out where to go or what to do. No plans falling apart at the last minute. Your friends are going to be there so you just need to come join.
A group of friends you look forward to seeing every week
Regardless of what’s going on, you already know every week you have somewhere to go, something fun to do, and people you’re excited to see.
Inside jokes and shared memories
Friendships build fast when you’re in the same room laughing at the same things.
Built by a psychiatrist who studies people for a living
Rococo was created by Dr. Salman Rajput, a young psychiatrist who has spent five years studying this problem and read close to 200 books to figure out a way to fix it.
Before trying to scale Rococo, he spent nine months piloting the concept with the same group of people week after week to see whether it led to strong friendships. That mattered because his top priority wasn’t simply creating a social club. It was building something that could reliably help people form meaningful relationships.
His background in psychiatry has given him the expertise to understand human behavior, relationships, and group dynamics, which helped shape the model Rococo uses today.

Member reviews
“An experience to be had especially in a world where it’s easy to isolate and feel alone. Making friends as an adult isn’t easy and being a part of a third space made to welcome others in a low commitment environment is an opportunity you shouldn’t miss. I think I made some lifelong friends and great experiences to share. Highly recommend.”
— Arwa A.“I am so glad to have found Rococo! I met a genuine, wonderful mix of folks, some of whom have become some of my closest friends. I loved the structure and consistency of the group, and appreciated having something to look forward to and get me out of the house each Monday!”
— Claire H.“Rococo was a life changing event where it makes you go outside of your bubble and meet people with different backgrounds. Rococo was a way to meet long term friends and have a fun evening. Something to look forward to every week and the environment is so chill, fun and overall good experience.”
— Rawan A.“It’s a great way to meet new people and hopefully make long lasting friendships! It’s structured, organized, chaotic, and over all fun activity I looked forward to every week. It was great learning about people and their interests, lives, personal lives etc. It helps one build a community in an era where isolation emerges. A community like this is the wrecking ball that’s required to break down these walls!
— Sahas Ananth“I highly recommend Rococo for other young professionals who are seeking real connection and friends! Rococo has crafted a beautiful community and safe haven for individuals looking for a third space to meet others. Whether you are new to the area or a local looking to expand your circle, Rococo will allow you to do it in a fun way! There is always an abundance of activities, treats, and laughs at each meet up. Don’t miss your chance to sign up!”
— Seyi Osobamiro“As an introvert, Rococo was a great experience! It allows you to connect with the community around you, play games and be at ease during it all, all while making new friends!”
— Aspen Walker“Rococo has been one of the best experiences I’ve had during my adult years thus far. The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming and laid-back, making it easy to connect with people from all walks of life. If you’re looking for a space that values authenticity and good conversation, this is it!”
— Tori B.“Rococo, for the time that I was there, became my third space, and I am so glad I joined it. One of the things I miss most about my time at university was the ability to quickly connect with people in a common setting. Rococo was a unique denominator over the nine months I was a member. I made several new friends, ate a good snack, learned a lot through trivia, and played lots of fun games. In a time where young people feel ever so isolated, and loneliness is at an all-time high, I strongly recommend young professionals trying to branch out and be more social to try Rococo to see what it can offer them.”
— B. L.“Rococo is a chance to comfortably step out of your comfort zone and make friends. Come for the experience and try it out, you’ll end up staying because of the friends that you make!“
— Ernst A.“Rococo was an amazing experience during a transitional time in my life. It was so nice to have something that encouraged me to leave my apartment for. I made lifelong friends.”
