YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE LINK TO THE EVENTBRITE PAGE AND PURCHASE A TICKET THERE. PRICE GOES UP AS EVENT TIME APPROACHES AND MAY SELL OUT SO GET YOUR TICKET ON EVENTBRITE ASAP.** **\*This is a multigroup event so event responses are only a portion of the total number of attendees** NYC Speed Dating - Dating Games Is your dating life starting to feel monotonous? Do your dates resemble job interviews more than actual chemistry? Sick of dedicating your entire evening to getting to know just one person? Then check out **“Dating Games” Speed Dating!** It’s a lively, modern twist on the classic format. Join us for a one-of-a-kind social experience for NYC singles! Meet new people, win raffle prizes, and connect with other fun, like-minded singles. It’s not only a great way to meet a potential partner—it’s also perfect for finding new friends or even future wingmen/wingwomen. **Suggested age range: 20s, 30s & 40s.** Our warm, welcoming host will get things started before dividing everyone into small groups at various tables. You’ll chat, mingle, and play lighthearted social games with groups of about 4–5 singles. The games are easy, super fun, and designed to help everyone open up and connect. After each round, you’ll rotate tables—just like traditional speed dating—so you'll eventually meet all the singles attending. You’ll also receive a “match sheet,” where you can mark anyone you’d like to speak with again. If they choose you as well, the host will email you each other’s contact information within roughly 24 hours so you can plan a date. Let’s be honest—we’re all tired of endless swiping on apps and meeting people who may not be anything like their profiles. A “Dating Games” Speed Dating night is a far better way to connect because you meet real people *in person* and get a genuine sense of who they are. This is an entirely new, innovative take on speed dating! We appreciate the idea behind traditional speed dating, but it can be tough to keep conversations flowing. That’s why at “Dating Games” events, you’ll have entertaining, easy-to-play games to help break the ice and avoid the typical interview-style awkwardness. We find this format helps people connect more naturally and meaningfully. ### WIN PRIZES! You’ll enjoy an evening full of fresh faces, interactive games, and social fun—no special skills needed, just a little luck! Our friendly host will guide the whole experience and help everyone get acquainted. Throughout the night you’ll play multiple games while getting opportunities to interact with all the singles of the opposite sex. When you win a game, you earn a raffle ticket—giving you chances to win prizes! ### IMPORTANT: THIS IS A PRE-PAY EVENT ONLY Tickets **must** be purchased online in advance—registration at the venue will *not* be available. As the event nears and space becomes limited, the price will increase to $35. *See more upcoming NYC events at [WWW.FRIENDZYEVENTS.COM](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dating-games-a-fun-twist-on-speed-dating-in-nyc-tickets-1982239058384?aff=oddtdtcreator)* For tickets and information: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1995389302117](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1995389302117)

Price Goes Up As Event Date Approaches. Welcome to *Bingo Speed Dating*... At this event you will be going on a series of about 7 to 12 mini dates with each date lasting about 5 minutes each. Women stay seated and the men rotate from table to table until they meet each woman. At the start of the event you'll be given a Bingo sheet. During your speed dating rounds you'll have to get as many Bingo squares as possible checked off. The winners get prizes! To check off a square, you’ll need to find someone who matches it.. For example: \-\-\-\> Find someone who has more than 2 pets \-\-\-\> Find someone who has seen every Harry Potter movie \-\-\-\> Find someone who has traveled to more than 2 countries this year So on your speed date you might ask the person questions like, "Do you have more than 2 pets?" or "Have you traveled to more than 2 countries this year?" Oh, and throughout the event the host will occasionally be calling off Bingo numbers (ie. B6, N32, etc.) If you complete a row, column, or diagonal… You shout: “BINGO!” 🎉 Once someone wins Bingo, we keep playing until someone else wins (We often have multiple winners so multiple prizes will be give out!) It’s interactive. It’s engaging. It’s way more fun than a dating app! Best of all? You get genuine connection, real conversation, and a safe, low-pressure way to see if there’s a spark! You will also get a match card and at the end of each mini-date you'll indicate whether or not you'd like to see the person again. At the end of the evening you will hand your match card in to the event host. If you both select each other, we will send you each others' email address within 48 hours so you can set up a future date! Within 48 hrs, you'll receive an email with the first name and email of your mutual matches. We do not give out names or contact info unless there is a mutual match. Our Speed Dating events tend to attract quality, single professionals who are done with the dating games and ready to meet that special someone. Most people know within a few minutes if they would like to see someone again. **This Event Beats The Endless Swiping On Dating Apps!** Let’s be honest — we’re all exhausted from the endless swiping on dating apps and wondering if someone actually looks like their profile picture. At this event you skip the guesswork and meet real people face-to-face before deciding if you’d like to take things further! *\* Check in starts 15 minutes before event start time so if possible please arrive a bit early.* *\* QUICK NOTE: MOST PEOPLE COME BY THEMSELF SO DON'T WORRY IF YOU'RE COMING ON ALONE. 90% OF PEOPLE WILL BE COMING BY THEMSELF. YOU'LL MEET AND GET TO KNOW PEOPLE QUICKLY! \** ***WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE EVENT...*** For tickets and information: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1995357484951](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1995357484951) \*\* SEE MORE UPCOMING NYC AREA EVENTS AT [WWW.FRIENDZYEVENTS.COM](http://www.friendzyevents.com/)
