What is Renaissance Club?

Become the most interesting person you know.

Leonardo da Vinci painted, sculpted, studied anatomy and designed flying machines. He wasn't a genius at one thing.
He was radically curious about everything.

Renaissance Club is for those who share in that curiosity. Every month, we surprise you with a new experience across LA and Orange County, hand-picked around when you're free and what you love. Everything is 100% planned and paid for by us.

You just show up.

Why members join

Your calendar deserves better plans.

Falconry
  • Something to look forward to. A new experience on your calendar every month, even when work is a grind.
  • Things you'd never find on your own. Fire eating, flying trapeze, a tango lesson for two. We find it, book it and cover it.
  • A reset, whenever you need one. New city, new chapter, or just a rut: every month is a fresh start.

How it works

Less “we should.” More “we did.”

01

Make it yours.

You pick the dates, the distance, and the vibe.

02

See the reveal.

Your concierge reveals your surprise experience. We tell you the what, when, where, and wear. Approve the experience, or swap it out with something else from a curated menu.

03

Show up curious.

Everything’s already booked and paid for, so all you bring is an open mind. See where the adventure takes you. Leave with new friends and a story.

The people

Meet people outside of apps.

Every experience is a small group of curious people. Most members are mid-30s to mid-50s, and they range from 21 to 80+. Engineers, artists, surgeons, founders. Come solo and leave with new friends, or bring your partner in crime and make it your monthly tradition.

Where it happens

LA and Orange County. Yes, both.

Tell us how far you’re willing to drive. We’ll plan around it.

A note from Michael

"Hey, I'm Michael. I started Renaissance Club because I kept hearing the same thing: people want to try new things and meet new people, but nobody has time to plan it. So we do it for you. Questions? Text us. A real human answers."
– Michael, Founder 818.463.1511

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Wait, the experiences are actually included?

Yes, really. Plans start at $99/mo, and that pays for the experience itself: the class, the lesson, the ticket, the falcon. You never pay the vendor.

What’s not covered is the stuff around it, like parking, optional tips, food and drinks. And if you buy the commemorative mug at the gift shop, that one’s on you.

Is it only in LA?

Nope. Orange County too, and plenty of it. Put one finger on DTLA and one on Anaheim: most experiences happen within 30 to 40 miles of either, plus a few adventurous outliers.

Tell us how far you’ll drive and your concierge plans inside that circle. Your relationship with the 405 stays your business.

Who are the members?

Curious adults. Most are in their mid-30s to mid-50s, with members from 21 to 80+. Engineers, artists, surgeons, founders.

We group people by age when schedules allow, but the real common thread is attitude: everyone signed up because they’d rather try the thing than talk about trying the thing.

What’s Premium?

A $26/mo add-on that mixes our bigger-ticket experiences into your rotation: blacksmithing, glassblowing, falconry, hang gliding, omakase, helicopter lessons, perfumery and more. Like everything else, they’re fully covered.

Not into heights or knives? Swap any of them out. Premium is a bigger menu, not a dare.

Will there be other members there?

Usually, yes. Weekends are our busiest, so Saturday and Sunday experiences tend to come with fellow members. Weeknights are quieter, and a few experiences are solo by nature (a sensory deprivation tank is a terrible place to network).

Plenty of members come alone, and we host bigger member meetups about once a month, always free. Small talk is optional. Leaving with new friends is very likely.

What if I’m busy one month?

Life happens. Skip up to 3 months at a time, free, right from your portal. Travel, deadlines, a new puppy: all valid.

Anything you don’t use turns into a credit that never expires, good for a future experience or an extra ticket to bring a friend. If we ask for your dates and don’t hear back within 7 days, we issue the credit automatically. You literally can’t fall behind.

Can I reschedule or cancel?

Yes and yes. Rescheduling is usually one click, as long as it’s before the vendor’s deadline. They set it, not us, and some are strict, so the sooner the better.

To cancel, just do it before your next renewal and your membership stays active through the end of that cycle. Month to month. No retention gauntlet, no hold music.

Do I pick, or do you?

A bit of both. You tell us when you’re free and what you’re into. Your concierge picks something new and reveals the what, when, where and wear ahead of time.

Not feeling it? Swap it for something else from a curated menu. No guilt, no explanation required. (Though we do love the feedback.)
