About this Event

Be prepared to experience a speed dating like no other! Since this event first debuted ,mutually connecting matches have been increased by 20% on average for both genders! The speed dating is a mind blowing cerebral and surreal experience! Hey, you like who you like! You love who you love! The heart does not see the flaws, just the beauty in all the flaws. Here is how it will work: Ladies will first have girlfriend connect time bonding with their fellow speed daters conversating over complimentary cocktails! Gentleman will bond with their fellow male speed daters over complimentary pool and ping pong in a private separated from the ladies. Speed dating will then begin! The men will be donning a blind fold the entire speed dating, while the ladies will rotate for each round. For ladies and men, there will be special optional questions in regard to “LOVE”  IS IT REALLY BLIND? in order to heighten the experience, but it is not mandatory! After the speed dating, the genders will be separated once more while the matches are selected and then handed in! There will be a complimentary after party in which everyone can mix and mingle over complimentary pool, ping pong, giant jenga and other cool games, and for those who will sign on, you will have a special happy hour only available to your fellow speed daters! Your matches will be emailed to you the next morning with the option to leave your contact number in addition to email. Early bird prices are limited, and the number of tickets released is not indicative of the event capacity! This private ticketed event is sponsored by NYC BRIGHTEST & SOURMOUSE NYC.
