About the event

Looking to meet new people in Leeds without the pressure of awkward speed dating or forced small talk? Chemistry is our popular quarterly singles night for over 40s, after taking of in London and we’re now bringing this brilliant event to Leeds - designed to make meeting like-minded people feel easy, natural and enjoyable.

Hosted in the beautiful Dirty Martini Private Lounge, this relaxed evening brings together singles over 40 who are ready for real conversation over drinks in a friendly, welcoming setting right in the heart of the City.

Our hosts will be there to help the evening flow, using simple, effective icebreakers to get conversations started and make sure everyone has the chance to meet plenty of people. No cringe-worthy games, no pressure, and no standing around wondering who to talk to next - just a sociable night in a lovely venue with people who are there for the same reason you are.

After the event, you can log in to our website to view the profiles of everyone who attended. Select the people you liked, and our matching system will let you know shortly afterwards if the feeling was mutual. From there, you can continue the conversation privately and, hopefully, start planning your next date.

Chemistry is a brilliant way to expand your social circle, enjoy a great night out and make genuine connections in Leeds.

Our previous events have sold out, and tickets are limited, so early booking is recommended.

  Lots of people (though not quite as many as advertised), and a good gender balance. The host was very nice and did a good job.

  The lock-key is a smart way of getting people to move around and meet up. A good crowd, but I was clearly quite out of the age range, my fault.

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

Speed Dating in Leeds, Yorkshire

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.
