Over 40s Speed Dating in London | Ages 40-55

Saturday nights are made for speed dating, and this event is one
of London's busiest.

Expect to meet 12-25 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!

Expect a 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
(Elizabeth Line). 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.

Important information

This event takes place in the private area Komyuniti. The venue
is located inside Yotel Clerkenwell. Staff will direct you upon

Doors open 7.00 pm

Event starts 7.30 pm

You must arrive before 7.25 pm in order to take part. We might

How it works
When you arrive at the venue you’ll meet our friendly
hosts. We’ll briefly explain the format of the event and you’ll be
straight into your first date.

You’ll have 4 minutes to meet and briefly get to know each
person. We’ve found that 4 minutes is just long enough to find out
if you'd like to see someone again but not too long if you
don't.

Girls stay at the same table throughout the evening and
guys move around the room.

After meeting each person, you need to decide if they are
a ‘yes’ a ‘no’ or a ‘friend’ and jot down any notes to help you
remember them. You'll find out who you matched with the next day
and you can message your matches via our app or website.

We'll have a short break halfway through for you to top up
your drinks.

After the event
The speed dating is over when you’ve met everybody, but
this is often when the fun really starts. Most people stay at the
bar for a few drinks and get to know the people they like a little
better.
