SINGLES GAMES NIGHT | CAROUSEL LEEDS | THURSDAY 30TH JULY

We're really excited to be heading to Carousel in Leeds City Centre!

Think drinks in a great bar, loads of arcade games and a few introductions to groups of people with similar interests and everyone single.

The plan:

From 6pm - arrive, grab a drink and chat to some new people (94% of people come alone and we float around making intros)

7.30pm - head to your first game to meet a group of people who we've used to science to curate you with. nothing intense, just a half an hour drink and game with people with similar interests, age appropriate and who also happen to be single. we've updated our tech so groups are now optimised for both romantic but also plutonic matches e.g people of your gender who we hope could become mates.

the whole point of these groups is to feel like you're having a drink with friends, with the added bonus of meeting new people and knowing everyone is single.

after half an hour, we'll take a short drinks/bathroom break then if you'll head to the next game to meet another group of people you have things in common with with, with the added bonus of knowing everyone is single

everyone then gets a bonus 10 arcade tokens to enjoy with everyone else in the room!

After groups - everyone then gets a bonus 10 arcade tokens to enjoy with everyone else in the room and the event basically becomes a bar, full of interesting people who want to meet new people and none of the "I wonder if they're single" situation

11.30pm - event closes

FAQs

Are dating events worth it?

We have worked very hard to make events for single people that don't feel like a typical "dating event" which we know can feel very overwhelming. We just hire out great venues, invest into fun entertainment, and match single people together into groups on the evening so you can go on multiple dates in a low-pressure environment. There are always new dating apps popping up, which all have the same culture of ghosting, shallowness, and let's be honest we can barely keep up with our family's whatsapp chat let alone a dating app.

What are our dating events?

Our events use the power of tech to connect similar single people together. When you arrive to the venue you'll be greeted by our lovely reps, and then you'll be introduced to your matched group. Depending on the event we will introduce you to another one or two rounds of single people, where we match you by differently weighting the parameters of the algorithm. We re-invest profit into fun entertainment on the evening so you have a great night regardless - and host a range of events from relaxed drinks in a beer garden, to something a bit more active like arcade games, to sporty events such as tag rugby or rock climbing.

How do you match single people?

When you buy a ticket you fill out a short form with some questions about yourself mapped around research we conducted to what leads to meaningful connections. We then run this through our algorithm which is a propietary points based matching system using python to detect similarities between each person based on different parameters. We then spend hours going through each person to make sure there has been no discrepancies in the data and even more hours to make sure the group ages and ratios are appropriate. Afterwards we analyse each table to make sure they are placed near tables we think we will match well, and that are in the best place in the venue based on what we know about the group.
