How it works When you arrive at the venue you’ll meet our friendly hosts. We’ll briefly explain the format of the event and you’ll be straight into your first date. You’ll have 4 minutes to meet and briefly get to know each person. We’ve found that 4 minutes is just long enough to find out if you'd like to see someone again but not too long if you don't. Girls stay at the same table throughout the evening and guys move around the room. After meeting each person, you need to decide if they are a ‘yes’ a ‘no’ or a ‘friend’ and jot down any notes to help you remember them. You'll find out who you matched with the next day and you can message your matches via our app or website. We'll have a short break halfway through for you to top up your drinks. After the event The speed dating is over when you’ve met everybody, but this is often when the fun really starts. Most people stay at the bar for a drink and get to know the people they liked a little better. For more events and no booking charges, please visit our website.
