About Layl

Hi, I'm Ahmed Raza.

I started Layl because I kept seeing the same thing at events: the drinks were built around alcohol, and a lot of guests ended up on the sidelines. Whether it's faith, health, driving home or simple preference, plenty of people don't drink, and they deserve something just as good.

So I built a bar for everyone. Since then I've brought Layl to organizations, hosted youth networking nights and watch parties, and organized a 1,000+ guest family day in the park from start to finish.

My goal now is simple: help Metro Vancouver companies throw events where every single employee feels welcome.
