Thursday | New Year, New Boo (24+) | Drift Bar & i360

Single and ready to mingle with a view🌌⭐✨

Just a bar, everyone single. Because the world in 2026 is all about meeting IRL, not on dating apps!

This event will be held in the Drift Bar situated in the i360, there will be one pod ride per guest - then the rest of the night will be in the bar.

Expect cocktails flowing, DJ beats pumping, a fun icebreaker on arrival and a room packed with eligible singles aged 24+.
Flirting is encouraged.
Eye contact is basically mandatory 😉

The night includes two exclusive pod rides, because romance definitely hits different when you’re floating above the city…And because this night wasn’t magical enough already, enjoy a live vocal performance from local talent Georgia Long, singing on the pod as you float above Brighton.

Pod Ride Times
💫 First ride: 7:30 – 8:00 
💫 Second ride: 8:00 – 8:30

Miss both and that’s it for the night — no extra rides added. Timing is everything (just like chemistry).

On arrival, you’ll receive a wristband showing which pod ride you’re on. The host will call out pod rides throughout the evening, so keep one ear open between refilling your drink 🍸
