About the event

*** OVER 250 PEOPLE EXPECTED - BOOK NOW! ***

Spring is coming and to celebrate we're bringing together over 250 people to party, drink, laugh and flirt outrageously for one awesome night for our Spring Fling Party at The Otherist.

Meeting people is the aim and our lock and key icebreaker makes it super easy to meet and speak to loads of people throughout the night.

Girls will get the padlocks and guys will get the keys. You’ll meet loads of people as you seek out the matching key to your lock.

When you find a match, head over to our hosts to enter the prize draw. The more matches you find, the more people you’ll meet. Super simple, super effective.

It’s also a lot of fun and nothing breaks the ice quite like lock and key.

Our venue for this Party is The Otherist, a brand new City bar located moments close to both Bank and Liverpool Street stations. We’ve hired the whole place exclusively for this event. It's perfect for this party with enough space for mingling and a few quieter areas too.

Jump on to our website after the event to select everyone you want to see again. The next day at 5pm we’ll show you who you mutually matched with. Use our messenger to arrange to meet up again. Around 85% of people get a match.

Book now and join us for this party. Tickets are selling fast and you'll meet so many people you're almost guaranteed to click with someone. Book now!

  Thank you for creating this event. While I only found a couple peolpe with whom I could see myself as friends, I enjoyed and appreciate the opportunity to meet everyone. The area was a bit crowded and loud, I could not hear everything that was being spoken my seat partners. Overall, I had a great noght and am grateful for you offering a speed dating even for this age group (50-65)! Thank you!

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating London 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 London 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 a girl.

Meet & Mingle

A London 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 for speed dating London. 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.
