EVENTS FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS: After creating a student account on Offen, you can create and discover events for students only. Create events just for other students or find events posted by them. You can select which universities you want to create the event for!

SET AGE RANGES: Set age ranges for each of your events to make sure that only the people you want will see the event. Event open to anyone? Just tap “All Ages!”

PRIVATE EVENTS: Set your event to “Private” to hide the exact location. Other users will be able to see the city of the event, but the address will stay hidden until they request to attend and you accept.

UNSPLASH PHOTO INTEGRATION: Finding the right photo for your event can be tough. Thanks to our Unsplash integration, getting that perfect shot is easier than ever. Browse through a library of photos of all categories and find the picture that best represents your event.

ADD FRIENDS ON THE PLATFORM: Add friends on Offen to view full profiles, including created and attending events.

MESSAGE OTHER USERS: That’s right! In-app messaging is here!

SHARE EVENTS WITH YOUR FRIENDS: Created a cool event that you want to share? Found a cool event that you want to share? Share it! You can share events through in-app messaging with your friends on Offen!
