About the event

BRAND NEW EVENT*

Quiz dating is a unique concept of dating and it's exclusive to Original Dating. We've taken classic speed dating format and combined it with the humble pub quiz to make one of the most fun and innovative ways to meet people.

We divide the group into teams of guys and teams of girls. The female teams compete in the quiz whilst the teams of guys rotate around the room after each round of questions, helping each team of girls as they go.

All the girls get to meet all the guys and you get to use our unique online matching and messaging system after the event to message the people you matched with on the night.

There are token prizes for the winning team and because it's a group-dating format there's less pressure than with one-on-one speed dating. Book now, we're sure to sell out!

Important information

This event takes place in the private 1st floor bar. Please head upstairs where the host will meet you on arrival.

- Doors open 7.00pm
- Event starts 7.30pm
- Speed dating finishes approximately 9.30pm
- Venue closes 11.30pm

It’s essential that you arrive before 7.25pm in order to take part. We might not be able to allow entry if you are late.

Price: £20

ORIGINAL DATING IN THE PRESS

HOW IT WORKS

The beauty of Speed Dating Oxford 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 Oxford 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 girl.

Meet & Mingle

An Oxford 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. 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.
