How Shelby Trees work

Your Shelby Tree is everyone who attended the same event as you.

No followers, no bots, no fake accounts. Just the people who actually showed up. See who’s there, say hi to anyone you want.

Shelby is a verified presence network. RSVP gets you a ticket. The QR scan at the door is what puts you on your Shelby Tree.

From RSVP to tree

Four steps. Only one of them is showing up.

  1. 01Before
    Find a night.

    Browse Los Angeles events by neighborhood and category. RSVP takes eight questions and a Stripe checkout.

  2. 02At the door
    Show up and check in.

    Staff scans your Shelby QR. That writes a check-in row, the only credential that opens your Shelby Tree. Government ID can be used on-site for real-time confirmation. We do not photograph or store ID documents.

  3. 036:00 am
    Wake up in your Shelby Tree.

    After doors close, or at 6am local, memberships are generated from check-ins only. RSVP alone is never enough.

  4. 04Every month
    Stay connected.

    Your Shelby Tree is private to people who were in the room. Monthly nights stack onto one tree. Pop nights stand alone.

The only way onto a tree is through the door.
