About the event

Join us for this online only, virtual speed dating event designed for gay men living in London.

You’ll meet 10-15 short dates lasting just four minutes - all from the comfort of home.

Our virtual speed dating events mirror the format of our real-life events. Upon signing into the event, you’ll meet our host who will explain the format to the group. You’ll then be transported to virtual tables for two which offer a one on one private chat environment for your first four-minute date.

You can join the event from any device that features a camera and a microphone and most phones and laptops are perfect for the job.
At the end of each date, you will be moved to the next virtual table and the next date begins. The whole session will last approximately one hour.

After the event, simply head to our website and view a list of everyone you met at the event. Select who’s a yes, a friend or a no and our system will crunch the matches. You won't be able to meet everyone but if you like the look of their profile you can always still say yes.

The following day your matches will be published, and you’ll be able to message your matches via our site and arrange your next virtual meet or a socially distanced date in real life.

Our virtual speed dating events are guaranteed. If you don’t meet anyone you want to see again, your next virtual event is free.

  I liked the venue and a friendly and laid back atmosphere was created. I was please the women were able to meet 15 guys. I felt bad that there was less choice of women. The event wasn’t private which I felt slightly compromised on as I live and work ( as a teacher ) in Exeter .

  It has been very enjoyable to meet so many lovely people. It was amazing that such a short spell of time was enough to feel an emotional connection or not. Enough to imagine if I want to spend say 2-3 hours with one or more of the female participants. Many thanks to Original Dating!

  The host, Jasmine, was brilliant. The venue was good too, especially the happy hour. I saw a couple of familiar faces too. I don't know if the speed dating thing suits me, so it is unlikely that I will do this again. A good experience nonetheless.

  Arta is a maze, someone to greet us and show us where to go would be good. Also name stickers.

  Everyone down to earth, perhaps needed a bit longer to chat.

  Was a comfortable easy atmosphere but felt like as soon as it was finished it was shut down rather than creating more of an atmosphere where people may have stayed a little longer to socialise but to be fair with the storm coming through was probably better everyone headed home asap!!

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating 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.
