Find movie buddies near you
A new release is out, everyone you know has already seen it or has no time, and watching alone feels a bit flat. Finding someone to watch a movie with should not be this hard. GoMate helps you find movie buddies nearby who want to catch the same show and talk about it afterwards.
Browse plans for first day first show groups, weekend cinema trips or a film club near me style discussion over snacks. Request to join, the host approves, and you sort out tickets and timing in the group chat. Or host your own plan in about a minute and let fellow movie fans request to come along.

Questions, answered
Something else on your mind? Write to us.
How do tickets work for a movie plan?
That is up to the host and group. Some hosts book seats together after approving members, others ask everyone to book their own nearby seats. Check the plan description and confirm in the group chat before paying.
Can I find someone for a specific movie?
Yes. Search the open plans for the film you want, or host a plan naming the movie and show time. People nearby who want to watch the same thing can request to join, and you approve who comes.
Is it weird to go to a movie with strangers?
Less than you might think. Plenty of people enjoy movies with others who share their taste. Starting with a group plan, meeting at the cinema, and chatting beforehand in the group chat makes it feel easy.
