Disability Night Out

Sign the Guest Book.

Disability Night Out is a night you take for yourself. On Saturday, October 10, from 6 to 9 p.m. your local time, you pick a restaurant, café, or pub and take a seat, alone or with whoever you like. No one organizes it for you, and you don’t need anyone’s permission. What makes it powerful is that strangers in cities all over the world are doing the same thing at the same time.

Went out? Sign the Guest Book so your seat is counted and, if you’d like, so everyone can see your table. Wearing some purple encouraged, any photo welcome.

Facebook Groups are a separate, optional way to meet others nearby. You never need one to take part. Find a Facebook Group

How many people were at your table, including you?

If others at your table are also signing the Guest Book, count just yourself.

City and State or Province

Your table (photo optional)

Snap your table. Wearing some purple encouraged, any photo welcome. No face needed: a purple scarf, a cup, or a hand on the table all count. Everyone in the photo should be okay with it being posted. JPG, PNG, and iPhone (HEIC) photos all work.

Photo

Describe your photo in a sentence (optional)

This helps people who use screen readers enjoy your photo. For example: “Four friends laughing around a pizza, one in a purple scarf.”

Video link (optional)

Posted a video on Instagram, Facebook, or YouTube with #DisabilityNightOut? Paste the link. We can't take video files here.

A few words for the Guest Book (optional)

First name

Shown with a posted photo. A nickname or initials is fine.

Private. We use it only to count your seat once and to reply if needed. We never show or share it.

We look at every photo before it goes up, usually within a day or two. To have yours taken down, write to gather@disabilitynightout.org any time.

Thank you. Your seat is counted.

If you checked the box, we’ll look at your photo and add it to the Guest Book, usually within a day or two.

You took your seat on your own, and so did strangers in cities around the world, at the same time. Now you’re all in one place.

Want to tell us how the restaurant did? That’s a separate, optional form.

Disability Night Out is run by one founder, with no staff and no paid ads – it’s self-funded so far, and can only keep going through donations. If you’d like to help us reach October 10, and change the world beyond then, any amount helps.
