Speed Dating in Manchester | Ages 30 to 45

30 single guests, one relaxed bar, and a host to provide the social glue—join us for a fun and fast-paced evening of intros in Manchester. You’re looking at joining Manchester’s most popular speed dating event—15 matches, a top venue, and an awesome It's a Date host to keep the fun (and introductions) flowing. Located in the heart of Manchester’s vibrant Deansgate district, Be At One is one of the city’s best-loved cocktail bars. We’ll have exclusive use of a private space for an evening of great conversation, good vibes, and new connections. Grab a drink, settle in, and let us introduce you to a room full of like-minded singles in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere that’s far more enjoyable than the apps. Our host will be at the venue ready to welcome you from 19:15. Please arrive on time for registration, to grab a drink from the bar, and to receive a quick overview of how the evening will run. You’ll also be given an optional name sticker, a pen, and a note card to keep track of everyone you meet. Ladies will be seated at tables that are comfortably spaced, discreetly numbered, and arranged in a relaxed area of the venue. Once speed dating begins, gents will join ladies for 5-minute dates. Your host will signal the end of each round, prompting gents to move to the next table in ascending order. Between rotations, you’ll have a moment to jot down your impressions of the previous date and note whether you’d like to reconnect later. These cards are for your reference only. Midway through the evening, your host will announce a 15-minute comfort break, giving you time to use the restroom, refresh your drink, or mingle with new connections. Dating will then resume for the second half of the event. At the end of the evening, the bar will remain open for further socialising. Afterwards, you can log in to your dashboard to record feedback on your dates and see your matches. If you have any questions about the event or how things will work, please contact Ollie at 07517 065 492 or via email at [email protected].
