Find and organize pickup events near you

Lobby is a free app for pickup categories. See the events happening around you, join in one tap, or start your own event and fill it with guests at your level.

Free on the App Store for iPhone, or use it right in your browser.

How it works

Find an event

See upcoming events near you, the closest first, by category, time and place. Filter to events at your level with open spots.

Join in one tap

Join right away, or ask to join when the organizer approves guests. You get a notification when you’re in.

Start your own

Create an event in seconds: category, place, date and time, guest limit and level range. Let anyone join, or approve each guest.

Stay in the loop

Chat with other guests, and hear right away when guests join or an event changes or is cancelled.

Every category

Play with the right people

Guests add their categories, positions and level (1–10) to their profile, and organizers can limit an event to a level range. Organizers can also approve each guest before they join. Anyone can report or block a guest who breaks the rules; we review every report within 24 hours.

Your account and Google sign-in

Browsing events is open to everyone. To join or create events and chat with guests, you create a free account with your email address, or sign in with Google.

When you sign in with Google, Lobby receives only your name, email address and profile picture. We use them to create your Lobby account, sign you in and show your name to other guests in the events you join. We never post anything or send messages on your behalf, and we don't sell your data or use it for advertising. You can delete your account and its data at any time from the app's settings.
