One iconic bar. A room full of singles. A Friday night designed for real-life chemistry.

This isn’t speed dating, and there are no awkward rotations or forced conversations.

Join us atSanderson London’s iconic Long Barfor a sophisticated singles soirée bringing together a curated crowd for cocktails, introductions, music and a night that can unfold naturally.

Hidden behind the doors of one of Fitzrovia’s most distinctive hotels, Long Bar is made for socialising — striking interiors, an impressive bar and an atmosphere that feels special from the moment you arrive.

Come for a drink. See who you meet. 🍸

From8pm, the room begins to fill with singles ready to leave the apps behind for the evening and meet people the old-fashioned way —face to face.

Arrive solo or bring a friend. Either way, you won’t be left to navigate the room alone.

Our hosts will be circulating throughout the evening, welcoming guests, making introductions and connecting people who might otherwise never have crossed paths.

Yourwelcome drink is available until 9pm, giving everyone plenty of time to arrive, settle in and start conversations.

From Socialising to Saturday-Night Energy 🎵

As the evening progresses, the atmosphere changes with it.

What begins with cocktails and conversation gradually turns into a proper night out as theDJ takes over, the music goes up and the party continues until1am.

Stay at the bar with someone you’ve just met, move around the room and make new introductions, or finish the evening dancing.

There’s no formula for the night —the idea is simply to put great people in a great room and let the connections happen.
