Must purchase a ticket in advance to attend.) As written up in the latest \*USA Today, check out the newest and "hottest" type of speed dating! Skip the small talk and share your personal opinions on some interesting topics! The idea is to accelerate finding compatibility by being your true authentic self. Forget awkward speed dating. Forget another night of swiping dating apps. This "hot takes" night makes dating fun again with a room full of people who actually match your energy. **How it works**: Ladies will receive a complimentary drink upon before a 7:30 pm arrival time. During the speed dating, ladies will sit and men will rotate. At the beginning of each round, there will be a question/topic in which each participant will offer their “hot take” on the subject matter and question posed. As you sit across from your new potential match, each person will have a minute to offer your personal opinion/viewpoint, and then both participants will have 3 minutes to ask further clarifying questions and have a conversation on the matter in a respectful, light hearted manner. Your matches will be delivered the next day, and everyone will receive a complimentary after party going on in the same venue until 10 pm. \* [https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/health-wellness/2026/01/20/hot-take-dating-trend-explained-daters-singles/88216787007/](https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/health-wellness/2026/01/20/hot-take-dating-trend-explained-daters-singles/88216787007/) **What To Expect:** * New and innovative speed dating concept which accelerates true compatibility * Ladies receive complimentary drink upon entry before 7:30 pm arrival * Complimentary after party with additional singles in the same age range * Your matches delivered the next day via email or text As The Cloud One is waiving their large group rental fee, a one item spend is required for ladies and a 2 item spend is required for men Dress code: Dress to impress/business casual.
