About the event

*** LAST TICKETS *** OVER 160 BOOKED - LAST 4 FEMALE PLACES REMAINING! MALE TICKETS NOW SOLD OUT

As the song goes, Summertime and the living’s easy. And we’ve just made it easier still.

Join us at the most hotly anticipated summer singles party in London – Summer in the City.

Join 150+ people for what promises to be an evening of sun soaked socialising and flirtatious fun. But hurry, our events always sell out quickly.

Soak up the rays on the outdoor patio or relax in the cool interior of Holborn’s The Square Pig. With beer, cocktail or Pimms in one hand and lock or keys in the other this will be the most seriously chilled singles party yet.

And yes you heard correctly, we’ll have the best ice breaker – lock and key – to ease you into the mingling mood with plenty of prizes for those who find their unlocked match.

Plus, fun mini speed dating sessions will run throughout the night just for a little taster, you’ll be able to use our unique mobile matching system – Mixeo – to find out who reciprocates your desires, and all this to a summery soundtrack of wonderfully relaxed tunes in the background.

In short, buy your ticket now for what is guaranteed to be the most fun, flirtatious and sun soaked event of the year.

Being single has never been so easy.

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS
Trustpilot

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.
