  This was my first event and the evening was really relaxed and surprisingly fun. The host goes to great lengths to ensure everyone feels comfortable and catered for. The venue is really nice with an extensive choice of food and drinks. I don’t really know Derby that well, so some information about parking in advance might have been helpful for me. I would definitely attend again.

  I really liked the venue and the hosts. It was hard to hear them both though, a bell/whistle to let people know when it was time to move on would help. I missed having a score card but was given some paper and a pen when I asked, which helped me keep track/make notes on who I’d met. Great to have an event in Derby for this age range, thanks for hosting it. I met some really nice people (male & female) and had a fun night overall 😊

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating Derby lies in its no-nonsense approach. You take an equal number of single girls and guys, put them in a room and give them a few minutes to chat with every other member of the opposite sex.

When you get there

Original speed dating events in Derby normally begin at 7.30pm. You will need to register with our hosts and to begin with they will issue you with a score sheet. This will help you to keep track of the singles that you would like to meet again and perhaps go on a date with. After a short period of mingling, your host for the evening who will run through detailed instructions and give you your starting position if you are a guy or table for the event if you are girl.

Meet & Mingle

A Derby speed dating event is split into two halves, each lasting around an hour, there will be an interval at half time of about 15 minutes. You will have between 4 and 5 minutes with each person, after which you need to tick a box on your score sheet - "yes, I would like to meet this person again" or "no. Thanks but no thanks". Or "friend" if you'd like to get to know them platonically. Make sure that you do this after each date to keep track. Afterwards there is an opportunity for everyone to meet and mingle informally - this is often where the real action begins, so make sure you don't disappear too quickly!

Complete your score sheet

After the event you simply tick who you liked on the Original Dating website and the site works about your matches automatically. If the dates you have ticked as a "yes" have reciprocated you have a match. You will be able to view the first names and message them via our site online without revealing your email address until you are ready to. You'll be having proper first dates in no time.
