Games Themed Speed Dating
Description
Draughts is a super-fun concept bar located in the heart of Hackney, next to Dalston Kingsland Station and minutes from Dalston Junction Overground. This unique games-themed event unfolds in a private area of the venue, renowned for its contemporary vibe, unfussy drinks menu, and extensive games library. One of our most popular events, you will have a real blast meeting up to 15 potential matches at this light-hearted and wholesome evening.
This is a doubles speed dating event, so be prepared to get to know other single people in an entertaining and interactive way as you move between tables playing short games in groups of four. Designed for fun-loving singles booking individually, you will be welcomed by our host at 19:15 and have the chance to grab a drink from the bar before we begin.
Ladies will be paired and seated comfortably on tables with various board games. These are selected to be short in duration (approximately 10-minutes) and great for helping you break the ice as you get to know your fellow players. Gents will be invited to rotate around the tables in pairs, playing a variety of new and nostalgic games, having no shortage of laughs along the way.
There will be a half-time comfort break and lots of opportunity to mingle with others in this informal yet lively setting. Post-event matching will be available on your It’s a Date dashboard where you could find you’re on a winning streak in love as well as in Jenga!
If you have any questions on the event or how things will work, please get in contact with James on 07517 065 492 or james@itsadate.club.
Venue: Draughts, 41 Kingsland High St, London E8 2FA
