Dating in 2026 can be hard. Who *doesn’t* have app fatigue? Join us at The Joker in Brighton for an IRL dating experience like no other. In this event, you’ll get a chance to pitch your friend to a room full of awesome other singles. **If you’re pitching:** all you need to do is create a 3-5 minute slide deck (Google Slides, PowerPoint - whatever you prefer) that shows off all the best things about your friend. You’ll then need to take to the mic and give your pitch to the room. You might just be playing cupid! We will have time for mingling in the break and after the pitches - so plenty of time to work your charm if someone catches your eye. **Not pitching?** No worries - there are plenty of spots in the audience and you’ll still get to join in with the mingling of course. **Doors will open at 7PM with the presentations starting from about 8PM.** **Key info for pitchers:** Please arrive at the venue close to 7PM so we can introduce you to the equipment and run through any issues You can make your presentations in a range of formats (Canvas, PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides). Please send them to hello@garethlewis.co no later than 10PM the day before the event in either Google Slides or PowerPoint format When making your presentations, please be mindful of your friend’s privacy. Don’t include anything they will be mortified to have featured, and consult with them what contact details are appropriate to share (or not). Instagram handles might be okay, but not home addresses! Please get in touch at hello@garethlewis.co if you have any questions or accessibility needs.
