Fanciful brings you virtual events
If you're single, over 50 and looking to meet new people, this is the virtual event for you!
We aim to introduce you to several people at this online event for exciting speed dates lasting just 4 minutes each. We find this a great length of time to find out if the person is for you and not too long if they are not.
What to expect
On the day, click the joining link from your confirmation email and the online event will start with a short introduction from our host. Shortly afterwards, your first date begins.
Virtual speed dating is just like in-person speed dating. The key is that you meet and speak to multiple people for four-minute 'dates' but with the convenience of joining in from home. It's a great way to meet new people and you get to connect with the people you clicked with to arrange follow-up dates in the real world afterwards!
No app/software is needed. Join the event directly from your web browser by clicking a link. If you've done video calls before you're already good to go.
This is real speed dating, just done online using our virtual speed dating technology - this isn't done on Teams or Zoom our tech is purpose-built for speed dating.
Each date starts automatically and you can choose Yes, Friend or No after each date, depending on how things went. Your next date connects automatically and the event continues until you have met everyone of the opposite sex.
Mutual matches are displayed the next day so you have time to review your selections after the event. Message your matches and arrange your next date using our WhatsApp-style messenger.
Sign up to take part in this event for people living, working or who simply like to enjoy London.
Don't miss this, book your ticket to secure your place. Limited places availaible.

How virtual speed dating works
A virtual speed dating event is just like the real-life version, except you can virtually speed date from almost anywhere! Virtual speed dating is a fun, convenient and inexpensive way to meet singles who believe dating is all about meeting and speaking to people face to face, not swiping on apps.
You'll enjoy mini dates with multiple people. After each date you get to decide who you would like to see again. The event begins with a short introduction from one of our online hosts and in no time, you'll meet your first virtual date. You'll see a countdown on screen, so you know how long you have left with each person.
You'll continue to meet new people until you've met everyone, and the event will draw to a close with our host explaining the next steps. After the event, everyone finds out who they mutually matched with and has the option to contact their matches to chat further and maybe arrange a real date.
To take part simply purchase a ticket in advance and add your photo so you are ready to be matched. Just ahead of the published start time you'll follow a link in your email to join your online event.
Most virtual events introduce you to around 10 people, but numbers depend on how many people sign up. Virtual speed dating is a fun and very convenient way to meet new people and we'd love to see you at our next event.
