About this event

(THERE IS CURRENTLY A WAITLIST FOR WOMEN'S TICKETS)
PLEASE READ FULL DESCRIPTION BELOW
SEVERAL OF OUR PAST EVENTS WERE SOLD OUT! During our events, people have had so much fun that they stayed behind after the event to socialize with several of the attendees as a group!
AN ALTERNATIVE TO SPEED DATING! This singles speed mixer will combine the elements of speed dating and also a social mixer. Bring your business cards as this is also an opportunity for networking and meeting new friends.
We will start with free time for mingling followed by a group icebreaker activity and games. Attendees will have 6 minutes to chat with anyone of their choice and at the sound of the bell will select another person to chat with. It is better than speed dating as you are not obligated to sit and speak with all attendees!
No need to be nervous, just remember that everyone is in the same boat. Let's get off those apps and try something different! All you have to do is show up and just start talking to anyone even someone of the same gender! Come with an open mind and positive outlook. Every effort will be made to keep the gender ratio balanced, however no guarantees can be made.
TICKET INCLUDES AN ALCOHOLIC/NON-ALCOHOLIC DRINK.
Attendees are encouraged to initiate exchanging contacts at the event. (If you are asked for your contact information but do not feel a romantic vibe with the person, you can always let them know that you would be happy to exchange contacts but that you feel more of a friendship vibe). If you want to be connected with someone but are not sure if they are interested, feel free to send us an email after the event we will try to play matchmaker after the event is over! Make sure to pay attention to attendees names and a description of what they look like.
Feel free to provide honest feedback to the host so future events and attendees can benefit.
Dress to impress! No sportswear/very casual clothing.
The event will start promptly so please arrive early. Parking can be found in nearby parking lots on St. Clair Avenue West. Please enter the venue and come to the back where the big TV screens are.
Spots are limited. It is recommended to get your ticket as soon as you can. If the gender ratio is very unbalanced, the event will be postponed. Please check your email the day before the event for important updates and information. Be sure to check your spam/junk folder as we usually send 2 emails with all of the information you need. If you have not received it, please feel free to reach out.

Frequently asked questions
If you are new to these types of singles events and want to come but are hesitant and feel shy/anxious, feel free to mention it to your host upon arrival or send us a message before the event and don't worry- you will be taken care of!
We cater to all types of personalities and include activities suitable for all. Our events are designed with introverts in mind. In fact, at our event in April, an introverted woman met her current partner and is already in a serious committed relationship! She originally was terrified to come!
It is advised to come with an open mind. You may even meet someone of the same gender who may have a cousin/friend/coworker/etc who may be the perfect fit for you! Or you may walk away making a new friend or business contact. You never know what can happen so it is best to stay and see how it goes!
Specific ages are not always known but keep an open mind. The perfect partner may not fit into your list of characteristics you are looking for and may be older or younger.
We never know exactly who will show up to the event in the end (people get sick/decide not to come at the last minute/have to cancel due to schedule conflicts/etc) but we strive for a balanced gender ratio. If there is a very unbalanced gender ratio, the event will be cancelled/postponed.
We take the “less is more” approach in that sometimes having less options is better to finding someone with shared values. Our events strive to combat “the paradox of choice” phenomenon which occurs while using dating apps/attending large events-having too many options may mean being less invested.
We have a partnership with a local Christian matchmaking service in Toronto and the GTA-please send us a message for more information.
This event takes place in a public restaurant. Although we have our own section, exposure to the public is possible.
We are able to control the volume of music but there are no guarantees that there will not be noise coming from other venue patrons or elsewhere in the venue. We suggest that those who are sensitive to noise consider this fact in deciding whether to attend or not.
We are unable to verify the above mentioned details. If you prefer to date those who are pre-screened. you may prefer the service of a paid matchmaker who can provide individual service.
We cannot predict the exact number as there are many reasons why they could be an equal gender ratio. The ratio could be equal the day before the event but then people can experience last minute emergencies/feel anxiety and change their minds about coming/get sick/etc.
