Speed dating night for singles aged 40-55, with four-minute mini-dates, at The Pitcher and Piano in The Lace Market.
Original Dating are running a speed dating night for singles aged 40-55 at The Pitcher and Piano in the Lace Market on Wednesday 4 November. It's a mid-week one, running from 20:00 to 22:00, so you're in and out in a couple of hours rather than committing a whole evening to it.
If you've never done speed dating, the format is pretty straightforward. You'll meet around 15 to 20 people in a series of four-minute mini-dates, which means you get through a good number of introductions in a single night. The short window keeps things moving, so you're not stuck in a long conversation that's gone nowhere; if you click with someone, you'll know quickly enough, and if you don't, there's another person waiting. It's designed to let you meet a fair few people in one go rather than putting all your eggs in one basket.
Original Dating describe it as their acclaimed speed dating experience, and they pitch it as a way to meet new people, make real connections and enjoy a night out. The age bracket is specific—40 to 55—so you'll be in a room with people in your own age group rather than a general mix. That's half the point of these things, really: knowing you're meeting people who are in a similar stage of life.
