About us
Welcome to Triangle Third Place (20s & 30s) — a community built around a simple idea: everyone deserves a place to belong outside of home and work.
We create accessible, welcoming experiences that help young adults build real friendships, feel more connected to the Triangle, and discover the people and places that make this area special.
That might mean gathering at a hidden neighborhood café, exploring a local farm, trying something completely new, showing up for live music, wandering a museum, hiking a trail, supporting a small business, or simply sharing a table with people you haven’t met yet.
Our events are designed to make it easier to show up, especially if you’re coming alone. There are no cliques, no pressure to already know someone, and no expectation that you have to be the most outgoing person in the room. Just come as you are.
We believe community happens when people have more opportunities to be together in real life. That’s why we focus on creating experiences that are approachable, inclusive, and rooted in the places we call home.
Along the way, we also want to help people experience more of what’s already in their own backyard — local businesses, neighborhoods, parks, cultural spaces, traditions, and hidden gems they may otherwise never discover.
Whether you’ve lived in the Triangle your whole life or arrived today, you’re welcome here.
We ask that you adhere to our policy as we make waitlists fair and allow a good experience for our members and the businesses we support:
- RSVPs will open 2 weeks before each event
- RSVPs will close 24 hours before the event
- 2 no-shows may result in removal from the group
- 3 cancellations within 24 hours of an event may result in removal
Come as you are.
Explore something new.
Meet someone you might not have otherwise.
You might just find your third place.
Featured event
EXCLUSIVE! A Night of Food, Games & New Beginnings 🍎🍯
This might be a little different from what you’re used to… but honestly, what else are you going to do on a random Tuesday? Come try something completely different.
Triangle Third Place is teaming up with the Jewish Federation of Greater Raleigh (Young Adults Division) for a really fun night centered around (free) food, really fun games, community, and traditions connected to the Jewish fall holiday season.
We’ll have vegetarian food provided, a cash bar with themed drink specials, secret games, themed surprises, and plenty of "schmoozing" — AKA socializing.
Throughout the night, you’ll get introduced to fun and approachable elements of September holidays like Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot through food, activities, traditions, and a few surprises we’re intentionally not telling you about yet.
And to be very clear: you do not have to be Jewish to attend.
This is not a religious service, and it isn’t designed for one specific faith. It’s a community experience for anyone who wants to learn something new, meet new people, laugh, eat, play some games, and experience traditions they may not have encountered before.
If you are Jewish, there will also be opportunities to learn more about local organizations, young-adult programs, events, and resources that are right here in your own backyard.
This is one of many cultural experiences we’ll be adding to the Triangle Third Place calendar, giving our community more opportunities to explore the people, traditions, food, and celebrations that make the Triangle what it is.
### THE SPACE
We’ll be gathering in a beautiful private room at a brewery near Downtown Raleigh. The exact address will be shared after you RSVP.
There is free and plentiful parking, and drinks (with or without alcohol) will be available for purchase from the bar throughout the evening.
### COST
Free, as always.
This is always built around keeping community accessible, so there is no required cost to attend. If you’re able and would like to help, donations are always appreciated and help cover the food, supplies, activities, and other costs that go into creating events like this! :) — Link provided soon
No pressure. Come either way.
Come curious. Come hungry.
Come ready to make some new friends!
IMPORTANT: Please view the JEWISH FEDERATION OF GREATER RALEIGH CODE OF CONDUCT prior to registration.
