Gay Men’s Annual Holiday Pizza, Sweets & Treats | Basking Ridge, NJ

🎁 IMPORTANT: Please bring one new, unwrapped toy for LGBTQ+ youth.

🍪 PLEASE ALSO BRING: A tasty sweet or treat, homemade or purchased, to share with everyone.

Celebrate the holiday season with Garden State Gay Socials at our Annual Holiday Pizza, Sweets & Treats Event on Wednesday, December 9, 2026, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the beautiful Olde Mill Inn in Basking Ridge, New Jersey.

This is more than a holiday party. It’s an opportunity for gay men from throughout New Jersey and the surrounding area to get out, meet new people, enjoy great food, play some games, share some laughs, and celebrate the season together in a relaxed and welcoming environment.

Whether this is your first Garden State Gay Socials experience or you’ve joined us before, you don’t need to arrive knowing anyone. Many guys come to GSGS experiences on their own. We create shared experiences where people have something enjoyable to do together, giving conversations and friendships an opportunity to develop naturally.

Pizza, Sweets, Treats & Holiday Fun

Come hungry because we’ll have pizza, soft drinks, coffee, and tea on us.

We’re also making sweets and treats part of the experience. Please bring something tasty to share with the group. It can be something you made yourself or a favorite dessert, cookie, candy, pastry, or other treat you purchased. Part of the fun will be seeing what everyone brings to the table.

We’ll also have games and activities throughout the evening, giving everyone an easy way to interact, laugh, and get to know some of the other guys.

For guests who would like an alcoholic beverage, there will also be a bar where you may purchase your own spirits.

Help Us Make the Holidays Brighter for LGBTQ+ Youth

Celebrating together is important, but we also want this annual GSGS tradition to help make the holidays a little brighter for others.

Please bring one new, unwrapped toy for LGBTQ+ youth.

It’s a simple way for our community to come together and give back during the holiday season while enjoying an evening of friendship, food, and celebration.

Looking to Meet Other Gay Men in New Jersey?

Making new friends as an adult isn’t always easy. Sometimes the hardest part is simply finding opportunities to meet people outside the usual places and situations.

That’s one of the reasons Garden State Gay Socials exists.

We create friendship focused social experiences for gay men in New Jersey built around activities, meals, day trips, seasonal experiences, cultural outings, and other opportunities to spend time together.

There’s no pressure to work the room and no expectation that every person you meet has to become your next best friend. Grab some pizza. Join a game. Have a conversation over coffee. Try someone’s favorite holiday treat. Meet a few guys and see where the evening takes you.

You might discover someone with similar interests. You might meet a guy you’d enjoy seeing again at another GSGS experience. You might begin a new friendship. Or you might simply have a great evening with a group of people you didn’t know before.

The activity brings us together. The people are what matter.
