Speed dating is a popular way to meet people quickly. It usually takes place in a restaurant, where participants sit in pairs at tables. Each pair has a few minutes to get to know each other. When the time is up, the men get up and move to the next table so that all participants can meet each other throughout the evening. At the end of the event, everyone writes down their preferences and hands the slip of paper to the host. The following day, we’ll send you the contact information for the people with whom you had a mutual match.
What is speed dating, and how does it work?
Are you single and looking for a way to meet people? Try one of our singles events. Speed dating is, along with online dating sites, the most popular way to meet people, where singles meet potential partners in person for a short time to get a first impression, get to know each other, and decide whether they’re interested in another date. It’s a fast and effective way to meet more people and find a partner. Participants appreciate that it saves them hours of writing messages and avoids the disappointment of anonymous or highly misleading profiles.

How Substitutions Work
Before the event begins, you can purchase a drink or other beverage. Women are always seated at the tables, and men approach them. During the 5‑minute meetings or conversations, all participants rotate through the group. This is the time when people, based on their first impressions, can decide whether they like their counterpart or not.
-
You don’t have to leave right away when it’s over
After the official part of the event, which is hosted by a moderator, you’ll have the chance to continue chatting with the other participants. But you can also go home right away and wait to see if the attraction with your dream match was mutual.
-
You’ll receive the contact information by email, and the rest is up to you
Shortly after the speed dating event, you’ll receive an email with the contact information of participants who want to connect with you — and vice versa. The next step is up to you. In our experience, more than 70% of speed dating participants receive contact information from others.
Frequently asked questions
An experienced host is present at every singles night to welcome all participants, explain the evening’s program, help everyone find their seats at the tables, and ensure that participants rotate to new tables after the allotted time has elapsed. The host is there to make sure you feel comfortable and at ease, so feel free to approach them at any time during the singles night.

On Friday afternoon and evening, we’ll meet up at the venue and check in. Depending on interest, we can have dinner together and spend the evening enjoying fun activities and conversation over a glass of wine or beer. Over the weekend, we’ll go on easy hikes, tour interesting sites, and enjoy other relaxing activities. Your participation in all activities is completely voluntary — feel free to spend the whole day reading a book or at the spa and join us in the evening. Our goal is for you to enjoy a pleasant weekend full of experiences and to get to know other like-minded people in a relaxed setting.
Of course. Although our events are primarily intended for singles, your guest certainly won’t be bored either. After the speed dating event, you can enjoy the rest of the evening in the company of the other participants. And our dating weekends offer a varied program of both active and relaxing activities that your friends will also enjoy.
