What To Expect From The Evening?

Once you arrive at the venue come upstairs from 7.30 pm, as we have exclusive use of the upstairs floor. Our Love At First Date host will register you to be ready for an 8 pm start.

Don't worry our host will take care of everything for you including giving you a match card with a number on it. Once we're ready to start, everything will be explained and everyone will take their seats at the matching tables. You will enjoy a 5-minute speed date with up to 14 other singles during the evening marking down which dates you would like to see again as you go on your match card. Each speed date will end when the host rings the bell, and the men will rotate round the tables, whilst the women stay seated until you have had a date with everyone.

You can expect to have a fabulous evening with other singles like you, who are fed up with online dating, and want to date in a friendly, relaxed way.

What To Expect After The Evening?

We will send you an email the day after our speed dating event to let you know who you matched with and then the rest is up to you.

We will let you know if your matches' intention is for friendship or love/dating so you can choose to get in touch again with them.
