About the event

Here at Original Dating we know you're your best you when you're having fun and what better way to have fun than meeting new people of over a few games of beer pong.

We've teamed up with the digital beer pong experts at PONG to bring you this brand new mixer.

Never played beer pong before? unsure of the rules? No problem, with PONG's neon lit digital tables and pong experts, all you need to do is aim and throw.

Throw in a bit of competition, chatting (and some beer obvs) and what have you got - a fun night out meeting new people. This social experience is sure to liven up your week and you'll play at least two games.

We guarantee you'll play at least two games of PONG and the rest of the time you'll get to know with your fellow players or even suss out the competition.

The following day you'll have access to our online matching and messaging system where you can stay in touch with anyone you'd like to see again and set up that rematch for your next date.

All the games are included in your ticket price, all you need to do is book now!

  Overall I thought the type of event was a nice idea, and I had some nice conversations, but for some of the speed dating section I had no date sat opposite me. Also looking at the list of attendees the day after, and from conversations I had during the evening, I was surprised to see a lot of men older than 45 - the age range was advertised as 30-45 and as a 33 year old woman I was disappointed that a lot of the men there were in their late forties. Some more transparency/accuracy in that area would be appreciated.

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

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.
