This ticket includes all the potential that a 200+ person lock and key party brings but with it an added hour-long speed dating event before the main party starts. Please note, party-only tickets are also available. Party tickets with speed dating are strictly limited. You’ll arrive at the venue ahead of the main start time. We’ll whisk you around 15 or so seated 4-minute dates to break the ice, face to face. As the speed dating ends, you’ll seamlessly join the lock and key party, but of course, you’ll have had a head start, and who knows, you may have already met someone you want to get to know much better. ABOUT THE LOCK & KEY PARTY Over 250+ people will join us for this super sociable Spring party in the heart of London. Featuring our fantastic lock & key icebreaker and a totally equal male-to-female ratio you are sure to meet and speak to a huge number of people and have a fab night out. The best bit? Everyone is single, similar age and there to meet people in the spacious surroundings of The Happenstance. There are prizes to be won as you seek out the person with the key that matches your lock (or vice versa). Work the room, meet people, try your locks and key and when you find a matching pair you could be in for a prize. It's hilarious and a lot of fun. The fun doesn't stop here. Following the lock & key icebreaker, we'll be setting the mood with a live DJ and plenty of opportunities to dance the night away. Post-event, simply choose the people you liked and our matching system will tell you who you mutually matched with. Get in touch again via our messenger and the rest is up to you.
