Two friends walking through the St. Petersburg arts district

Two friends who wanted more than another Friday night out.

Angela and Maija became friends after moving to Tampa Bay, and kept landing on the same thought: there had to be more to experience here than another routine dinner or another night at a bar.

So they started looking — at the studios, the kitchens, the waterfronts, the unexpected little places tucked behind a strip mall — and Via Vita Club grew out of what they found.

This is about making connections. About helping you find the experiences that make you feel alive. About people finding people in real life, not just on a screen.

Who this is for

For people ready for something different.

Maybe you're new to Tampa Bay and looking for real connections. Maybe the kids have left home, you've recently retired, or life has simply become too busy to keep making plans. Via Vita is for people who want to get out, discover something new, and have more to look forward to.

Our mission

To inspire curiosity, create meaningful connections, and open people up to experiences they never thought they'd love.

Welcome to Via Vita Club.
