Experiences Crafted for Connection and Joy
Find quick answers here to help you explore our community-focused events with ease.
What’s the vibe of Lighthouse?
Lighthouse is all about connection through music — a space to come together, be present, and share something real. It’s a welcoming, feel-good environment where people can connect openly, away from screens and without pressure, surrounded by good energy and like-minded people.
Why did we start Lighthouse?
We created Lighthouse because we wanted a space like this ourselves — somewhere to go regularly that felt genuine, uplifting, and rooted in music and community. A place to reconnect, meet new people, and experience something meaningful in person, not just online.
What makes Lighthouse events different from others?
Each event is limited to 50 participants to ensure an intimate atmosphere. We strive to engage everyone through thoughtful ice-breakers, curated musical experiences and an open-mic hour where you can share a song, poem, a favourite story or what ever you like if you want to.
What is the venue layout?
We customize the venue for each event to provide a variety of options, allowing guests to match their mood throughout the experience. There is a seated area arranged in a music theatre style for comfortable viewing. A relaxed zone with cushions and cozy rugs offers a perfect spot to unwind and lie down. And of course, we have an open space for those who want to dance and move freely.
Are your events suitable for all age groups?
Due to our venue’s limited capacity of 50 people, we prioritize adults to foster meaningful connections and networking opportunities. However, we understand childcare responsibilities and welcome guests under 18 when accompanied by an adult.
Is there a dress code for the events?
We invite you to wear comfortable attire that allows you to dance, relax, and connect freely. Most importantly, come as you are—whether simple or flamboyant, your true self is always welcome!

What is the policy regarding alcohol consumption?
We aim to foster a peaceful & inviting environment where individuals can build meaningful connections with intention and awareness. Anyone who appears intoxicated may be asked to leave.
What should I bring with me?
Whatever helps you feel at ease! Whether you want to chat, dance all night, sit down and journal, or simply lie down in the chill-out area and enjoy the music, we’ve got you covered. With so many options, consider bringing extra layers, your own blanket and pillow, or even something to write on in case inspiration strikes.
