Terms and Conditions

1. About The Clique

The Clique is a women-only social events company hosting small, themed gatherings (such as brunches, movie dinners, game days, and karaoke nights) that usually include food. Events are not limited to a fixed schedule or fixed guest capacity — frequency and group size may vary by event and will be communicated individually for each event.

5. Event Booking and Payment

8. Event Conduct
