Party Bot is a new chatbot that does exactly what its name suggests: finds parties for you. The bot was created by the people behind the Party With A Local app. As such Party Bot only suggests events posted by members of the app community. The chatbot works using Facebook Messenger and only needs your location to start sending event ideas.
Once you find an event you'd like you can download the Party With A Local app to connect with locals who are attending it. Or you can just search the Internet for more info and go alone. Party Bot works best in the associated app's most popular cities, meaning it may not display a wealth of events outside big cities.
