NE Dates: 20s and 30s Speed Dating

Tired of filtered profiles, endless swiping, and conversations that go nowhere?NE Dates is for real people who want genuine connection and prefer to meet face-to-face to see where the spark leads.There’s something powerful about meeting in person — the energy, the laughter, the subtle chemistry you just can’t feel through a screen. Attraction isn’t a checklist; it’s intuitive. And the best way to discover it is in person.Whether you’re open to new friendships, hoping for romance, or just up for a fun night with real people, NE Dates is where stories start.

Real, In-Person Connections: Skip the endless messaging and get straight to what matters — genuine conversation, shared energy, and real human interaction.

Authentic & Unfiltered: We keep it real — genuine laughs, honest conversation, and the kind of moments you only get in person. No filters, no pretence, just people being themselves.

Intuition Over Algorithms: Chemistry is felt, not forced. Meeting in person lets you trust your instincts and notice what never comes through online.

Relaxed, Fun & Pressure-Free: Whether you’re here to find love, make new friends, or just see where things go, it’s all about real connections, whatever form they take.

Fast-Paced & Engaging: Short, timed conversations keep things flowing, giving you the chance to meet multiple people in one lively evening — and quickly sense where there might be a spark.

Arrive & Check-In : Grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the welcoming, social atmosphere.

Meet & Connect : You’ll rotate through a series of short conversations — enough time to feel the vibe and be present in the moment.

Match & Follow Up : After the event, you’ll receive your mutual matches so you can continue the connection if it feels right.

NE Dates is for open-minded, genuine singles who value real connection over perfection. Whether you’re looking for friendship, romance, or simply meaningful conversation with good energy, you’ll feel at home here.
