About this Event

Come experience our fresh take on the old traditional form of speed dating.

Fill out a profile in under 5 minutes and be matched on a series of 6-8 quick-fire date rounds to THE most compatible singles in the room.


Check-in is on your phone, with NO match cards, name tags, paper or pens required - just bring your phone and your great attitude! So, please ensure it's fully charged.


The Venue

Come join CitySwoon for our matched speed dating in the West Loop at a new crowd favorite venue for us - Carnivale. This colorful & festive hotspot features "Latin fusion cuisine, exotic cocktails, and one-of-a-kind desserts inspired by the cuisine & culture of Mexico, South America, and Central America as well as our passion for travel, art, and design." The event will be hosted in their freshly renovated bar area. Salud!



The Event:


- You will experience a series of relaxed mini-dates selected for you each round by an intelligent algorithm live at the event.

- Hosted by a friendly and professional team.

- Handpicked, top bar with a welcoming atmosphere.

- Connect freely with your mutual matches the next day on CitySwoon.

- Opportunity to connect with the other participants you don't date on the night.
