NYC Bingo Speed Dating - A Fun New Kind Of Speed Dating: Ages 35-49

Fri, Jun 12 · 6:15 PM EDT

Printers Alley, 215 West 40th Street, New York, NY, US

For tickets and information: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1989755643693

IMPORTANT NOTE: CLICKING THE RSVP AND PAY ORGANIZER BUTTON ON MEETUP DOES NOT GET YOU A TICKET/ SPOT. YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE LINK TO THE EVENTBRITE PAGE AND PURCHASE A TICKET THERE. PRICE GOES UP AS EVENT TIME APPROACHES AND MAY SELL OUT SO GET YOUR TICKET ON EVENTBRITE ASAP.

*This is a multigroup event so event responses are only a portion of the total number of attendees

NYC Bingo Speed Dating Event: Spots Are Limited & Will Likely Sell Out So Get Ticket ASAP. Price Goes Up As Event Date Approaches.
Welcome to Bingo Speed Dating... At this event you will be going on a series of about 8 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.
At the start of the event you'll be given a Bingo sheet. During your speed dating rounds you'll have to get as many Bingo squares as possible checked off. The winners get prizes!
To check off a square, you’ll need to find someone who matches it..
For example:
---> Find someone who has more than 2 pets
---> Find someone with blue eyes
---> Find someone who has seen every Harry Potter movie
---> Find someone who is a school teacher
---> Find someone who has traveled to more than 2 countries this year
---> Find someone with the birth sign Capricorn
So on your speed date you might ask the person questions like, "Do you have more than 2 pets?" or "Have you traveled to more than 2 countries this year?"
Oh, and throughout the event the host will occasionally be calling off Bingo numbers (ie. B6, N32, etc.)
If you complete a row, column, or diagonal… You shout: “BINGO!” 🎉 Once someone wins Bingo, we keep playing until someone else wins (We often have multiple winners so multiple prizes will be give out!)

It’s interactive. It’s engaging. It’s way more fun than a dating app!
Best of all? You get genuine connection, real conversation, and a safe, low-pressure way to see if there’s a spark!
You will also 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 within 48 hours so you can set up a future date! Within 48 hrs, 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.
This Event Beats The Endless Swiping On Dating Apps!
Let’s be honest — we’re all exhausted from the endless swiping on dating apps and wondering if someone actually looks like their profile picture. At this event you skip the guesswork and meet real people face-to-face before deciding if you’d like to take things further!
* Check in starts 15 minutes before event start time so if possible please arrive a bit early.
* QUICK NOTE: MOST PEOPLE COME BY THEMSELF SO DON'T WORRY IF YOU'RE COMING ON ALONE. 90% OF PEOPLE WILL BE COMING BY THEMSELF. YOU'LL MEET AND GET TO KNOW PEOPLE QUICKLY! *
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE EVENT...

"I’ve tried dating apps for years and this felt so much more genuine. You actually get to see someone’s personality right away." – Mark D.
"I appreciated how natural everything felt. It didn’t feel like an interview — it felt like a party but I really got to know the other people at the same time." – Sofia R.
Spots are limited and these events usually fill up very fast so please sign up as early as possible. Grab your ticket and get ready for a night of fun, flirting, and friendly competition. Because your next great connection might just be one square away from BINGO.

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.
