About the event

Brand New Event:

Specifically designed for Black men and women who live, work or are visiting London. This night promises a fun opportunity to connect with other likeminded singles.

Expect to meet 15-20 people for dates lasting four minutes. We've found this to be the perfect length of time to decide if you’d like to see someone again and - crucially - not too long if you don’t!

A super night of fun & friendly introductions over drinks. Attend on your own or with friends - it's a great night either way.

The next day you'll find out who you matched with via our website. Get in contact with matches via our messaging system and you'll be meeting again for real dates in no time.

Our venue, Yotel London City is moments from Farringdon Station. It’s a great spot if you want to make a night of it as the bars and clubs of Central London are close at hand.

  Thank you for organising the speed dating event — I really appreciated the opportunity to meet new people in a relaxed and friendly environment. I found the experience well-organised, and the time given for each conversation felt just right. If I may offer a small suggestion, it could be helpful to have a brief icebreaker question, or prompt displayed on the table or perhaps some conversation games , e.g. “this or that” game, quick-fire questions, or even cards with quirky topics to choose from to help start conversations more naturally — especially for those who feel a little nervous at first and make the fun twist of the meeting.

  Organisation was a little chaotic and the venue a little too loud and echoey to speak comfortably.

  As it was a smaller venue, there were fewer people. Therefore, it was a lot easier to hold a conversation and hear the other person. It was a bit difficult to find the venue as you have to around to the back. Also, I felt sorry for the young lady at the bar who was working very hard on her own to get everyone their drinks. There really should have been another person helping her. As a result, the event started later than scheduled. The host was very good, patient and accommodating. Inspire if the few hiccups, I did enjoy the event at this venue.

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.
