### What Is Bingo Mingle and Match?

This is a new, fun and interactive twist on traditional speed dating.
At the beginning of the event, you’ll receive a Bingo card. During the event, you’ll be put in small groups to chat. Rounds will last about 10 minutes and the men will rotate each round. Throughout the rounds, your goal is to complete as many Bingo squares as possible by finding people who match the descriptions. The ultimate goal is to complete a full card. There will also be Bingo numbers on the card as well.
Examples include:

• 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 two countries this year
• Find someone whose zodiac sign is Capricorn

During your chatting sessions you will ask questions that would reveal answers that you can mark off on your Bingo card. The Bingo card boxes can lead to discussions and you will all learn about each other.
Meanwhile, the host will occasionally call out Bingo numbers throughout the event (like B6, N32, etc.).
Complete your board and shout “BINGO!” 🎉

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

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.

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.
