What we’re about
contactsingles.co.uk
Our group is very active with loads of events put on by different organizers. This is the best way to plug into an instant social life if you are new to London just wanting to make new single friends or maybe meet that special someone.
We have a very cosmopolitan mix of sociable singles from London and the surrounding counties. If you want to make a positive change to your life then you have definitely come to the right place.
Every friend or partner started with the first hello!
We aim to provide a safe environment for you to make new friends and widen your social circle. We know how daunting it is for ladies to come alone to events so we can even put ladies coming alone in touch with each other beforehand. We'd like to offer this to you too guys but we know how strange you would think it was if we said we could network you with other men beforehand lol! We can only suggest that you arrive at the start of the event when we can properly introduce you into a mixed group of new arrivals and ease you in gently.
We have members from mainly 30 but we don't mind younger or older. We have big numbers at our events for Contact Singles (contactsingles.co.uk) when we hold them mostly monthly so there will still be plenty of people within your age range.
Meanwhile you will find many other events put on by our other organisers for their groups and you will see many of these events posted on this group.
Our sister London (& Hertfordshire & Essex) groups are very active with loads of events put on by different organizers. Feel free to join, with over 12,000 members between the groups!

### HAVANA. 1958
Somewhere in London a door has opened.
Step through to 1950s Cuba and Tropicana Nightclub, Havana’s ‘Paradise Under The Stars’, for a night of total immersion—a journey to the very heart of the Cuban soul.
Lose yourself in 3+ hours of cabaret and mambo, electrifying live music, Cuban feasting and frozen daiquiris in 'London's must see experience for 2025' (The Sauce).
This is the club where Nat King Cole, Perez Prado, Frank Sinatra, and Celia Cruz met in rum-soaked splendour. An immersive spectacular by The Lost Estate, three full years in the making.
A line-up of legendary Cuban artists combine to revive Tropicana's golden age. Live music, cabaret, dance and storytelling combine in a spectacular revue of gods and mortals dancing beneath a tropical moon...
In the 1950s, under the eye of owner Martin Fox, Havana's Tropicana Night-Club dazzled the world with mesmerising shows, vibrant costumes, and Afro-Cuban rhythms.
It was the epicentre of Cuban music and dance, a daring hotbed of creativity where American jazz, Cuban dance music, and ancient folklore intertwined.
In 1954, Fox opened The Crystal Arches, an indoor tropical arena that won architectural prizes worldwide and transported guests into a realm of glamour and sensuality, whatever the weather.
Until the Cuban Revolution of 1959, champagne flowed as Hollywood stars mingled beneath the stars. Under the sparkling Cuban sky, music and dance enticed every sense, forging a legend of Latin creativity and opulence.
Now, in 2024, this story is reimagined by the visionaries behind The Lost Estate, collaborating with a line-up of legendary Cuban artists to revive Tropicana’s golden age.
Show starts at 1pm
Matinee Performances: Doors and bar open at 12pm. No admission after 1pm. Will wait outside for 10 minutes before going in.Experience timeless recipes and theatrical storytelling with chef Ash Clark's kaleidoscopic journey through 1950s Cuba. Havana street food meets decadent fine dining.

- Secret Cinema Grease: The Immersive Movie Musical at Battersea ParkBattersea Park, London$82.00
Some of us went last year and had a fantastic time in Birmingham, all the actors where amazing with true lookalikes of the Grease cast. The singing, dancing and the atmosphere was absolutely brilliant.
If you have always wanted to visit Secret Cinema and love Grease the musical join me on a Saturday night as the story unfolds around us from the moment we arrive, we will find ourselves immersed in the halls of Rydell High alongside Danny and Sandy as every corner of the set comes alive. With live music, a summer fairground and classic American diner-inspired delights, every unforgettable moment and song from Grease unfolds before our eyes.
It all starts with a summer fling between Danny Zuko, the king of cool and Sandy Olsson, the girl-next-door. But when summer ends, reality kicks in. Enroll for Senior Year at Rydell High and step into their story. You'll be swept up in the drama, the laughs and the heart-stopping moments of first love. Are you ready to rule the school?
