About This Event

Looking to meet genuine London singles without endless swiping, ghosting and dating app frustration? Join us at The Bootlegger Covent Garden for a Tuesday night Speed Dating event for singles aged 40–65 and meet up to 15 people face-to-face in one fun and sociable evening. Located in the heart of Covent Garden, The Bootlegger is a stylish cocktail bar inspired by the glamour and speakeasy atmosphere of the 1920s. With its intimate setting, great cocktails and relaxed atmosphere, it's the perfect place to meet someone new. HOW SPEED DATING WORKS Throughout the evening you'll meet up to 15 singles through a series of fun 4-minute dates. It's long enough to discover whether there's a spark, but short enough to keep conversations relaxed, natural and pressure-free. At the end of each date, simply move on to the next person. By the end of the night, you'll have met more singles face-to-face than you might meet in weeks of using dating apps. MEET. MATCH. CONNECT. After the event, log in to your DateinaDash account, review the singles you met and select the people you'd like to see again. If you've both chosen each other, it's a match! DateinaDash combines real-life Speed Dating with attendee photos, smarter matching and DateScore™ — our unique system designed to make meeting people offline even better. You'll also have access to compatibility insights and private messaging, making it easy to reconnect with someone you clicked with after the event.
