**\*\*RSVP for a FREE ticket. The first 100 people will get complimentary entry to this event. We will send an e-mail nearer the time with a link to book your ticket\*\*** Join over 300 singles for one of London's biggest and most exciting singles events of the summer. The Summer 'Lock & Key' [Singles Party](https://dateinadash.com/events/london/city-of-london/lock-and-key/15Aug2026-8178/) is designed to help you meet more people, make new connections and enjoy a fantastic Saturday night out in the company of hundreds of like-minded singles. The main party begins at 7:30pm and continues until late, giving you plenty of time to mingle, socialise and meet new people in a relaxed and friendly environment. With a large outdoor terrace, great music, a lively atmosphere and our experienced hosts on hand throughout the evening, this is the perfect place to meet someone new. **Get a Head Start with Optional Speed Dating** Want to maximise your chances of meeting someone special? Before the main party begins, we're offering an optional pre-party speed dating session. Arrive early and meet up to 15-20 singles face-to-face through a series of fun four-minute dates. The speed dating session is a fantastic icebreaker and gives you the opportunity to make connections before the main party even starts. Once it finishes, you'll seamlessly join the Summer 'Lock & Key' Singles Party with a head start on everyone else. Please note that speed dating tickets are limited and must be booked separately as an optional upgrade. **How Does the 'Lock & Key' Work?** Our famous 'Lock & Key' icebreaker is one of the easiest and most effective ways to meet people. Upon arrival, ladies receive a padlock and gentlemen receive a key. Your mission is simple: mingle, chat and see if your lock or key is a match. When you find a matching pair, you'll both receive entry into our prize draw before collecting a new lock or key and continuing the fun. It's a brilliant conversation starter that encourages everyone to mix, mingle and meet lots of new people throughout the night. **Powered by Date Score™** Unlike traditional singles events, the Summer 'Lock & Key' Singles Party is powered by Date Score™. After the event, simply log in to your DateinaDash account to review everyone you met, select the people you'd like to see again and discover your mutual matches. You'll also be able to view compatibility insights and continue conversations through our private messaging system, making it easier than ever to stay in touch after the event. **Why Attend?** • 300+ Singles Expected • Open to Singles of All Ages • Optional Pre-Party Speed Dating • 'Lock & Key' Icebreaker • Large Outdoor Terrace • Date Score™ Matching • Compatibility Insights • Private Messaging System • Friendly Hosts • Great Music & Atmosphere • Stay Until Late Whether you're looking for a relationship, new friends or simply a fun night out, the Summer 'Lock & Key' Singles Party is the perfect way to meet new people this summer.

From Balancers - Expand Your Circle

🚨 Spoiler alert: We built the space we couldn’t find. A place where you can show up alone, say hi first, and meet new people naturally. If you’re ready to expand your circle, you’re in the right place. You can check us out on [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/_balancers) 📸🚨 Get ready for our Balancers Social Night – Salsa Edition 💃🕺 In partnership with Rueda Libre, we'll kick off the evening with our usual Balancers team challenges before bringing everyone together for a fun beginner-friendly Salsa Cubana lesson and social dancing. **7:30 PM – Conversation Spark** We'll kick off the evening with a fun conversation activity designed to make meeting new people feel natural. No awkward introductions—just a simple way to get everyone talking from the moment they arrive. Once the activity finishes, the evening becomes more relaxed. Grab a drink, keep chatting, or challenge someone to a game of Uno, Jenga or Beer Pong before the salsa lesson begins. **9:15 PM – Salsa Lesson** Time to come together for a fun beginner-friendly Salsa Cubana session led by our friends at Rueda Libre. Whether you've never danced before or already know a few moves, this is simply another fun way to meet people, laugh together, and step outside your comfort zone. **10:00 PM – Social Dancing & Mingling** The lesson is over, but the social continues. Keep chatting, dancing and meeting new people as the night flows naturally with Salsa Cubana music and a relaxed social atmosphere. ⚠️ Please note: Entry is not guaranteed after 10:00 PM. **11:30 PM – After Party** For those who want to keep the night going, we'll head to a venue nearby for the after party. ⚠️ Please bring ID if you plan to join the after party. ✨ Pro tip Try to arrive by 7:30 PM to enjoy the full experience. 🔹 Many people come alone. That’s completely normal here. 🔹 Our hosts are on the floor helping people meet and get involved. 🔹 Most attendees join through our app, so the Meetup “Going” list represents only a small portion of the actual crowd.

THE ART OF ATTRACTION: A Singles Gallery Experience at the V&A

From Cocktails & Conversation - Single Events With Heart
4.6

## ***🚨 Important: Meetup RSVP is not a valid ticket. All attendees must purchase a ticket via our [TICKET LINK!](https://fatso.ma/f2b2j)*** **Looking for a more meaningful way to meet new people?** Join us for a unique singles experience where art becomes the conversation starter and connections are discovered through shared perspectives, engaging discussions, and mutual attraction. **Welcome & Registration** We begin at the V&A Café with coffee, introductions, and registration on the C&C app. This relaxed start gives everyone the opportunity to settle in, meet fellow participants, and prepare for the experience ahead. Guests will then be divided into small groups of 5–6 people and set off to explore the museum. **The Gallery Challenge** As you explore the V&A, your mission is to find and photograph an artwork or object that represents: ❤️ **Love** ✨ **Your Ideal Life** 🎭 **Your Personality** The challenge encourages meaningful conversations and offers a unique insight into how others see themselves, their aspirations, and what matters most to them. Every 20 minutes, groups will rotate, giving you the opportunity to meet and connect with different people throughout the experience. **Coffee, Conversations & Connections** After the gallery challenge, we'll return to the V&A Café. Each participant will select one favourite photo from the challenge and have up to one minute to explain why they chose it and how it relates to the chosen category. We'll also discover whether anyone selected the same artwork for the same challenge category, creating fun and unexpected connections. These short presentations often reveal far more than a traditional introduction ever could and provide excellent conversation starters for the rest of the event. **The Match Experience** After getting to know one another through the gallery challenge and discussions, guests can privately indicate through the C&C app who they would like to see again. If two people select each other, it's a match. Mutual matches will be revealed instantly through the app as soon as both parties have selected one another. **No awkward speed dating.** **No forced pairings.** **No pressure.** **Just genuine conversations and meaningful connections.** **Schedule** **11:00 AM** – Meet at the V&A Café **11:15 AM** – Welcome, Coffee & App Registration **11:30 AM** – Gallery Challenge Begins **11:50 AM** – First Group Rotation **12:10 PM** – Second Group Rotation **12:30 PM** – Return to Café **12:40 PM** – Favourite Photo Presentations **1:10 PM** – C&C Matching Opens **1:20 PM** – Coffee, Conversations & New Connections **2:00 PM** – Event Ends **Who knows? Your next great connection may be hidden behind a masterpiece.** **Register here:** https://fatso.ma/f2jgf
