A Hosted Social Experience at the National Gallery

Looking for a more meaningful way to meet new people?

Join us for a unique singles experience where world-famous art becomes the conversation starter. Through fun challenges, shared discoveries and thought-provoking conversations, you'll meet like-minded people in a relaxed, pressure-free environment.

We'll begin outside the National Gallery with a warm welcome and short introductions before dividing into small groups of 5–6 people. Groups rotate throughout the experience so everyone meets a variety of new people.

Challenge 1: Love Through Art

Find one artwork representing Love, Heartbreak, Happiness or Adventure and discuss your choice.

Challenge 2: Which Painting Are You?

Choose a painting that represents your personality, dream life, current chapter or ideal relationship and explain why.

Challenge 3: The Masterpiece Hunt

Search for famous paintings together.

Coffee & Connections

Finish at the National Gallery Café and share your favourite artwork over coffee.

What to Expect

Optional Finale – The Gallery Match ❤️

Each guest privately chooses the painting that best represents from the challenge and up to 3 people, they'd most like to continue talking to. If two people choose each other, they'll both receive a notification after the event.
The host will privately introduce your details after the event, making it easy to continue the conversation.

📍 Meeting Point

We'll gather from 11:00 AM outside the main entrance of the National Gallery, in Trafalgar Square, at the top of the front steps. Your host will be there to welcome everyone before we head inside together and begin the experience.
Before the event, all attendees will be invited to join a private WhatsApp group, making it easy to receive event updates, find the meeting point, and stay connected with the group before and after the experience. It's also a great place to share photos, continue conversations, and keep in touch with the people you meet.
