About the event

Our Friday night parties are a massively fun way to meet people over a few night drinks in a cool venue. Socialising and optional speed dating is the order of the day and with 50-80 people to meet, there's huge dating potential on the night.

Use our Mixeo app to keep track of everyone you meet throughout the night. Select people you like as either a yes or a friend in the app. The next day you’ll find out if they liked you too and you can get in touch again all via Mixeo.

There's a speed dating area so just drop in if you like, or simply mingle over a drink or two at your own pace.

As an incentive to keep everyone mingling Mixeo gives out free drinks at random. You have a chance to win each time you meet someone new. The more people you meet, the more chances you have of winning drinks and other goodies. It’s a lot of fun and ensures everyone meets a lot of people over a couple of hours.

It’s simple, sociable and very effective and it’s also totally rejection free. This event will host up to 80 people with an equal mix of girls and guys attending.

The objective is simple. To offer the easiest, most fun way to meet people possible. Great things happen when you meet new people. Sign up now and tell your friends too!

  Venue was smaller than other Original Dating locations, but the number of people worked for the space.

HOW IT WORKS

Arrive from about 7pm and grab a drink — our host will check you in and hand you a scorecard. Once everyone's settled, the host explains the format and the dating begins: four to five minutes per date, girls seated, guys rotating, with a 15-minute breather at half time to top up your glass and compare notes.

After each date you make a quick private note: yes, no, or friend. Nobody sees your choices on the night — that's the point. When the formal dates finish, the room opens up and everyone mingles; ask any of our hosts and they'll tell you this is where half the real chemistry happens, so don't dash for the Tube.

The next morning, enter your ticks on our site and our matching system compares them against everyone else's. Mutual yeses become matches, and you can message each other through the site — no phone numbers or emails shared until you choose to.


When you get there

Doors open around 30 minutes before the start time on your ticket — arriving early gives you time to grab a drink, find your feet and say hello to your host, who'll check you in and get you set up. Everything you need is provided on the night; just bring your ticket confirmation and your best conversation.

First time? You won't be the only one — most people at any London event are speed dating first-timers, and plenty arrive solo. Our hosts have run hundreds of these nights and their whole job is making sure nobody feels lost. By your second date you'll have forgotten your nerves entirely.

Meet & Mingle

Why Londoners book with Original Dating

Original Dating was founded in London in 2003 by Andrew — back when speed dating was brand new and he was, in his words, just a boy. Twenty-three years later we're the capital's longest-established speed dating company and one of the largest in the UK, running around 500 events a year nationwide.

What that experience buys you: professional hosts (many of them trained actors) who actually run the room rather than reading a script; venues we've vetted personally; gender-balanced events with sensible age bands; a matching system we built ourselves; and a rematch guarantee we've

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.
