An evening of mingling for single people in their 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond!
About this Event

Are you single?
Are you in your 50s? 60s? 70s? 80s? 90s?

Would you like to meet new people… without the pressure of a structured dating event?
Then this might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

This is a relaxed, social evening for single people in their 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond. No whistles. No rigid format. No pressure to “perform”.
Just a room full of other single people… all open to conversation.


🪑 How the evening works

When you arrive, you’ll:

• Grab a drink from the bar.

• Find a table (we’ll have tables set with a mix of ladies and gents).

• Settle in and start chatting.

Every 10 minutes or so, you’ll simply move to a different table of your choice.

That’s it.

It’s all about keeping things gently flowing so you get the chance to meet lots of different people… without it feeling like hard work.


💕 Is this a dating event?

Yes… but without the intensity.

We’ll still provide dating match cards, so if you meet someone you’d like to see again, you can pop their name down.

If it’s mutual, I’ll exchange your details the next day.

That said, you are absolutely welcome to exchange numbers on the night if it feels natural.

Some people come for dating.
Some come for friendship.
Some just want a nice evening out with good company.

All of that is welcome here.


🤝 Coming on your own?

Most people do.

And honestly… it’s the best way.

Everyone is in the same boat, and because the room is designed for mingling, you won’t be left sitting on your own wondering what to do.

💭 A final note from me (Pixie)
Maybe the idea of speed dating feels a bit too intense for you? Perhaps you tried meeting people through the apps and found it a complete waste of time?

I created this event to help you meet people in a more natural, easy-going way without pressure or expectations. Just a room full of single people… and the chance to see what happens.

This is for ALL ages from 50 upwards! So please don't think 'I am too old to go along'. You're not! I want people of all ages to take this opportunity to find friends, connections, and maybe even to find love! That's the whole point!
