Parley Club

Introductions among people of standing.

Every Friday in Bali, twenty guests at one table — ten men and ten women — looking for love, real friendship or a partner in business.

Every application is studied by the organisers themselves — people with a rare eye for others, holding professional qualifications as psychologist, profiler, physiognomist and mediator. Experience of that kind cannot be faked or talked around.

The organisers may decline an application for any gathering without stating a reason.

Drag to look through

What sets our format apart is the calibre of every person at the table

We choose quality over numbers.

I

Each gathering has twenty seats: ten for men and ten for women. Applying does not reserve one — we assemble the guest list after studying each application and the person behind it.

II

We set a table for people who came to meet others. Selling, self-presentation and collecting contacts are not our format.

III

We ask you to say plainly what you are looking for: a relationship, friendship, or a partner in business. It is easier for everyone.

IV

We close the door for good to anyone who came for sex or to sell their product.

Guests under the influence of alcohol or drugs are not admitted, even with an approved application. The payment is not refunded in that case.

Coming up

Every Friday at 18:00 in the garden of Ju Bali, Umalas. Twenty seats, ten for men and ten for women.

The application takes about eight minutes

It is longer than a sign-up form on purpose. We read every answer, and the answers are how we decide.

That is why the questions are open ones. A checkbox says nothing about a person; a few honest lines say almost everything.

    You will hear back within three days, either way. The last step asks you to accept the code — including the permanent refusal in point five.
