We have launched with two events, both taking part at Park House Hotel in Shifnal. They are for men and women who fall roughly into the 35-45 age categories. One event for those between 35-45 and one for 45-55! Don’t worry if you’re slightly over or under those ages, this is a guide so come to the event you think is right for you.
We will be releasing tickets covering different ages and same sex dating in 2025. Be the first to find out by joining our waiting list.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens when I arrive at the speed dating venue arrive?
When you arrive, you will be greeted by one of our chatty, friendly team. They will take you into the bar area where you can buy a drink. If you are the first guest to arrive one of our hosts will stay with you until other guests arrive. Once other guests arrive, our hosts will introduce you and once you feel comfortable they will leave you to chat until the speed dating commences.
How does speed dating work?
Ladies, you will be seated at your own two-person table. This will be your table for the whole event. Men, you will then be asked to sit at one of these tables. The bell will ring, signalling the start of the first date.
You have 3-5 minutes to chat and suss each other out. You will have a dating card to make notes and to privately tick whether you would like to see the date again. At the end of the 3 minutes, the bell will ring to signal the end of the date. Men, you will then move to the next table for the next date.
There will be a 15-minute break in the middle of the event, during which you can get a drink or use the restroom.
Our hosts will collect the dating cards at the end of the event. If you have ticked yes and the person you want to see again has also ticked yes, we will exchange your details by email within 24 hours.

Please understand that we are a new business, so we are starting with a couple of events as we want to make sure this is a success. If there is not yet an event for your age group, please join our waiting list. We will be extending our dating categories and age ranges really soon and the more interest we have, the quicker this is going to happen.
How do I connect with people after the speed dating event?
If you have ticked that you would like to see someone again and they have done the same, then we will send you each other’s email and phone number within 24 hours of the event finishing.
If you have not found a match, we will still let you know and invite you to our next event.
How will I remember who is who?
You will have a dating card which has a notes section – we suggest making lots of notes i.e. what job do they have? What do they look like? Their age? Anything that stands out and makes you think ‘YEAAAH I want to go out with this person again!’
What happens if not enough people buy tickets?
We will not run the event unless we have sold at least 20 tickets (10 male and 10 female) – we want you to have at least 10 dates. Of course, we have no control over whether or not someone with a ticket turns up on the day but if you have paid for a ticket we hope you will turn up or let us know in advance if you can’t be there. The maximum number of dates will be 25 which would mean an hour and a half of dating.
If, for any reason, we do not sell enough tickets to bring you an awesome dating experience, we will postpone the event and offer you a full refund or a ticket to our next event.
