Red Hook, Brooklyn
Habibi Tech Pickleball Social
The night before the Summit, the community takes over a pickleball club in Red Hook. Open play, mixed teams, and an evening to talk to people properly — before anyone is standing at a microphone and before the day is a schedule.

What the evening is
A pickleball social, run the way a social is run rather than the way a tournament is. Teams are mixed as people arrive, courts turn over, and nobody is keeping a league table. If you have never picked up a paddle, that is the ordinary case here and not the exception.
The rest of it is the point. This is the same room as Saturday, a day early and without a stage in it — which turns out to be the difference between recognising somebody at the Summit and knowing them.
Who is there
Everyone speaking on the Saturday is invited to all three weekend events, so a good part of the slate is here the night before they present. So is everyone else who came in early — the people flying in for the weekend rather than commuting to one day of it.
Two ways in
It is sold on its own, and it is also carried by a VIP weekend ticket. Both are bought on the same page.

One ticket, three doors. The seats at both evenings come with it rather than being bought again.
Directions
Red Hook is not on a subway line. The B61 runs down Van Brunt Street, and a car from Manhattan or from most of Brooklyn is fifteen to twenty-five minutes. Give yourself a little more than the map says on a Friday evening.
