    Grand Central Murder Mystery & Scavenger Hunt (+ After Party)

    Grand Central Oyster Bar, 89 E 42nd St, New York, NY, US

    (This is co-organized by 30+ groups so don't go by RSVPs you see here. We'll have a good # attending. Must prepay to attend.)
    You don’t need any special skills — just a sense of adventure and curiosity! This unique scavenger hunt is all about connecting, uncovering history, exploring Grand Central and solving a mystery.
    Join us for a fun, social adventure at our Grand Central Murder Mystery Scavenger Hunt. Get ready to have a good time making new friends and solving a mystery. Plus, you'll find out things about Grand Central you never knew before!
    How It Works:

    • When you arrive we will put you on teams - if you don’t already have one (90% of those attending will not have a team).
    • Each team will be given a list of clues and 75 minutes to head to Grand Central to uncover the mystery of Mary’s demise. The team with the most points wins.
    • Once everyone is back we'll safely socialize where you can share your experiences with the others.

    The Theme:
    Meet Up Mary is a regular on the social circuit in New York. You'd probably know her if you've been out before. She was very personable, friendly and bubbly! Unfortunately Mary met a horrific end at Grand Central and the police need you help to solve her case! Join us for this fun and educational night where you will get to explore every corner of the NYC Landmark in ways that you never have before! (If you have participated in our other Grand Central Hunts no worries as this is a completely different experience)
    FAQs:
    Can I come alone? Yes about 90% will attend on their own.
    What's dress code? Wear what you had on at work. It's casual and comfortable.
    What are the ages? 21 and over. We'll have a good mix of ages.
    How much to attend? $25 (goes to $35 as event gets closer).
    Do I have to buy in advance? Yes. Space is limited and this will sell out.

    Love Is Blind Speed Dating Event - As Seen On Netflix!

    Love Is Blind Speed Dating Event - As Seen On Netflix!

    SOURMOUSE, 110 Delancey St, New York, NY 10002, USA, Manhattan, NY, US

    NYC Speed Dating - Singles 20s & 30s --- LADIES TICKET COMES WITH A FREE DRINK!

    Get tickets at: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/673108474567

    Come experience this new & unique twist on speed dating! You've heard of the TV show "Love Is Blind" and now you'll get a chance to experience it in person! Here is how it will works: Ladies will first have female friend connect time, playing complimentary pool and/or ping pong (or just hanging out and chatting) while sipping complimentary cocktails in a private area separated from the gentleman. Gentleman will have new friends connect time in a private area as well! Speed dating will then begin! The men will be blind folded the entire speed dating, while the ladies will rotate for each round. For ladies and men, there will be special optional questions to ask to heighten the experience but it is not mandatory! We carefully set up the process so that neither the men nor women will be able to see each other will have to make selections based on personality!

    "I wasn’t sure what to expect, but not seeing the person first really helped me focus on what matters—our connection. It was refreshing!"
    — Alex R., Event Attendee

    THIS IS A MULTI-MEETUP GROUP EVENT. 15 OTHER GROUPS HAVE ALSO BEEN INVITED SO WE'LL BE SURE TO HAVE A GOOD SIZE TURNOUT. THE RSVP LIST ON MEETUP REFLECTS ONLY A SMALL PORTION OF ATTENDEES.

    WHY IT WORKS:

    ** 82% of participants in a study on blind dating said they felt more "genuine" and "authentic" when they couldn't judge their partner's appearance (Source: Psychology Today).
    ** Studies have shown that people who initially meet without seeing each other are more likely to find deeper emotional connections and establish long-lasting relationships (Source: Journal of Social and Personal Relationships).

    ** A report from The University of California, Berkeley, found that satisfaction in relationships tends to be more stable when based on personality compatibility rather than initlal appearance.
    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, For every drink purchased, your next will be half off the entire evening! Your matches will be emailed to you the morning with the option to leave your contact number in addition to email.

    ** YOU CAN SEE MORE NYC SPEED DATING EVENTS AT: http://www.FriendzyEvents.com **

    QUICK NOTE: You won't be able to sign up at the event. You have to get tickets here in advance. Price goes up as event time approaches and this event usually sells out very quickly so get your tickets ASAP.
    At this event you will be going on a series of 10 to 15 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. You will 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 the next day so you can set up a future date! Within less than 12 hours of the event, 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.
    FAQ:
    CAN I COME ALONE?
    Yes, about 85% come on their own.
