What we’re about
Tired of sh*tty dating apps? we run anti-dating app socials! with a variety of different types of events.
Meet like-minded people at a vibrant location in a lively, safe and welcoming space. Flamingo Dating encourages people to meet each other in real life, under our wing (no pun intended).
Note, these are NOT speed dating events, instead where people can mingle in a relaxed atmosphere. So far, multiple people have dated, exchanged numbers, made friends, had plenty of laughs and even some smooches 👀
Whether you're looking for romance, meet people you vibe with or a fun night out, we have you covered. Feel free to share with your friends and come along together. You never know who you could meet ❤
We keep track of tickets to maintain a balanced ratio of genders

Why You Should Attend… ✅
· Over 90% of our attendees come solo, so dont worry about bringing a friend if you're the only single in your friend group. Come solo!
· Icebreaker questions, fun games to play, and other activities in our events (Optional to partake)
· Make a change from endlessly swiping on a screen and having no substance conversations. Meet people you genuinely click with in a fun, safe and relaxed setting.
· Friendly hosts to make you feel welcome and help people get chatting.
· A place where everyone is single and in the same boat… or bar, rather.
· Flamingle, find a connection and have an awesome night. You never know who you could meet.
Why Dating Apps Suck ⚠️
· An uneven balance - 15% of users on dating apps in the UK are women, and 85% are men. (NetImperative.com)
· 50% of single Britons have never asked anyone on a date in person. (DatingSitesReviews)
· You can’t read a person’s body language, facial expressions, tone of voice or get a real feel of what they are like. You can often find fakes and inauthentic people on dating apps.
· Too much choice is bad, this can lead to decision overload, superficial judgement and ghosting.
· Online abuse, some people get away with online abusive behaviour because of the lack of real-world consequence and inconsistent enforcement policies.
Considerations & Guidance ❤
· To clarify, this is NOT a speed dating event.
· Respect personal boundaries and space.
· Don’t assume romantic interest just because someone is talking to you.
· If you meet someone you like, feel free to ask for their contact information and potentially plan a date.
· Pre-booking is recommended. Secure your ticket now as only a limited number are available. If you arrive on the day without a ticket, you may purchase one at the door. It will be £15 and can be paid via card machine or cash.
· Each event can have a range of 10 - 20 years age gaps but overall events in general cover 18 - 40.
· We keep track of tickets to maintain a balanced ratio of genders.
