Singles Party in Kings Cross | Ages 30 to 45
BOOK YOUR TICKET 👉🏼 HERE.
Our regular Singles Party keeps growing in popularity as we welcome more and more guests in the 30 to 45 age group each month to meet, mingle, and match! You can expect to connect with up to 160 eligible Londoners in a fun, relaxed, and informal setting.
A few moments from King’s Cross station you will find Drake & Morgan, a trendy and cosmopolitan bar spread over two floors with a great atmosphere and eclectic crowd. We welcome around 160 guests for introductions and socialising in a private area reserved exclusively for It's a Date. For those who like a bit of dance floor action, the venue has a DJ keeping the energy high and good times flowing in the basement bar until late.
Your hosts will be at the venue ready to welcome you at 19:30. They will be wearing a big smile and easy to spot, but if you’re uncertain just ask one of the friendly bar team.
Hosts will indicate the area reserved exclusively for our event, offer you an optional name sticker, and direct you to where to leave your jacket. A complimentary welcome drink is offered to guests arriving before 20:00 – no better reason to arrive in good time!
When comfortable, your hosts will introduce you to other guests and aid group mingling. Singles parties are more casual and informal in structure – a great opportunity to meet and network with other like-minded single people in a relaxed and fun environment. Our hosts will be there from start to finish to ensure you have the chance to meet everyone and make any special introductions at your request.
With around 160 guests at every party, there is heaps of opportunity to make new connections, enjoy a couple of drinks, and soak up the atmosphere.
After the evening concludes, you can access the event listing in your dashboard to enter feedback on those you have met and await your matches. A match is struck when two guests reciprocate identical feedback; indicating mutual intent to reconnect and enabling messaging via our online platform.
If you have any questions on the event or how things will work, please get in contact with James on 07517 065 492 or james@itsadate.club.
