Date My Mate

PITCH YOUR PAL TO A ROOM FULL OF SINGLES. We're bringing dating back to the pub and handing the power to the people who know you best: your friends. Date My Mate is a dating event hosted by Nice, and led by comedian Elliot Powell, where friends can pitch their mates to a room full of singles. Think speed dating but with slides, jokes and significantly better odds. Each presenter has two minutes to make their case and pitch their single friend. Once all presentations are done, you'll have loads of time to spare at the end of the night to shoot your shot with whoever caught your eye. Missed the last Date My Mate? Find out what to expect here. Choose your ticket type: • The Presenter: You have 2 minutes and a PowerPoint deck to convince the room why your single mate is the ultimate catch. You can go as rogue as you like, no slide limit, just make sure you can deliver it in under 2 minutes.
