A live map of the real city
We want the app to feel like a signal layer for what is actually happening around you, not a stale directory that only updates when a promoter remembers.

🔥 Amapiano Night — Surulere
Saturday · ₦5,000 · 3 of your friends going
Tap to RSVP →The story behind it
The city never lacked energy. Discovery was the broken part.
Every weekend, hundreds of parties, rooftop sessions, pool hangouts, art nights, and underground events happen across Lagos. Most of them live and die in someone's story, a flyer in a group chat, or a friend who remembered too late.
Grooovy is our answer to that gap. One place to discover what is happening near you, understand the vibe fast, see where your people are going, and move from interest to RSVP without friction.
We are building for how Nigerian Gen Z actually plans nights out: fast, mobile, socially, and with a sharp sense of local culture. Not a generic event catalogue. A better way to find the scene.
What we are building
A nightlife product that feels
native to the culture.
The work is bigger than listings. We are designing a product layer for discovery, coordination, and momentum, so a night out can move from rumor to real plan in a few taps.
Coordination without the chaos
See where your people are heading, share plans fast, and reduce the endless back-and-forth that usually happens before anyone leaves the house.
Tools that work for hosts too
Hosts should be able to publish a vibe, manage RSVPs or tickets, and build momentum without using five separate tools or sounding like an ad.
Dead simple
Three steps.
Zero stress.
01
Feel the vibe
It's Wednesday. You open Grooovy. A rooftop session in Lekki. An amapiano night in Surulere. A free art party in Yaba. Filter by tonight, this weekend, or free-only. Tonight is sorted.
"I used to spend 30 minutes asking people what’s happening. Now I know in 10 seconds."
02
Link your crew
Found something? See if your friends are already going. Tag them, split the ticket cost, or just fire them the link. No more "let me know if you’re going" threads that go nowhere.
"Finally an app where I can see what my people are doing this weekend without DMing everyone individually."
03
Pull up
Your QR code is in the app. Walk in, scan, done. Then go live, share moments, and make the night something you'll actually remember, not just a screenshot in someone's story.
"The entry was smoother than I expected. Scanned and walked in within 20 seconds."
Launching first in Lagos
If this sounds like your kind of platform, start with the city.
Start by exploring what is already happening. When you want to save plans, tune your vibe, and unlock workspace features, use the guided dashboard entry flow.
Product entry
No waitlist wall
Public exploration stays open. Account creation starts only when someone wants their own dashboard, city setup, and vibe onboarding.
