Speed Dating in Ottawa! ✧ : - ゜~Gay/Bi Edition~゜-: ✧

We know better than anybody how hard navigating dating apps can be. That's why we curated a new dating experience that is safe, unique, and much more enjoyable. Get the chance to meet new groups of Ottawa singles and develop meaningful relationships AND friendships within your local community. We will be your cupids and help you navigate the first moments of your new connection.

Every guest will be asked to fill out a short questionnaire. Though optional, this will help us facilitate future invitation based nights but additionally, we will share this information (with your consent) with your matches in our introductory e-mail introducing you to your potential connections after the event.

Our night begins at Saigon with general mingling and games as we all get to know one another. It is our goal to make you forget all about your nerves and focus on having a great night! We've got amazing feedback about this aspect of the night at our last events and we hope to continue this in the future. Once everyone is feeling comfortable and has a drink/snack we move to the speed dating element of the night. You will be given a scorecard and have a chance to speed date all the attendees!

In the end, we collect your match cards and dim the lights, turn the music up a little bit and have a great night! Feel free to stick around as long as Saigon is open. You're in the heart of the market, surrounded by amazing food and drinks. Feel free to stick around and get to know your fellow daters! You will hear from us about your matches in the next few days!

Suggested age range 20-40 for this event. Note that we are not able to enforce this age range, it's simply a suggestion to help maximise potential matches. Future events will have different age ranges and sexual orientations. Please email [email protected] for more information if you are interested in speed dating but do not see an option listed for you to participate at this time.

Please note that this event (as well as all our events) are open to all men and non-binary people. It's more on the basis of sexual attraction rather than gender expression or identity. We also do not believe it is our place as cis people to tell anyone where they can and cannot go.
