3 minutes, 12 dates, 1 fun night
It can be hard to decide if someone passes the vibe check through dating apps. So we thought, why not have the vibe check in person? Join us for Throwback Thursdays with some old-school-cool Speed Dating!
Speed Dating with the Seattle Social Club is back! This time with a cool new spin on the event! We'll be hosting this event at The Collective, a community that exists to connect like-minded folks around shared passions! As part of this mission, we'll be eschewing the traditional formal aspects of Speed Dating and updating it with a hip new space! Gone are the days of the traditional formality of sitting across from your matches at tables, trying to figure out what to say.
You'll be sitting with your matches in a more casual setting. Some of you will be sitting in floating hammock chairs, discussing your passions with your dates. Others will be sitting on the giant hammocks conversing about their favorite foods. Or you may just be sitting on the couches chatting away. There's something for everyone and all comfort levels!
Please note, that this event may have you in closer contact with your dates than in our other events. We take the safety and security of attendees VERY Seriously at our events and will be making sure nothing inappropriate, offensive, or dangerous happens. Despite the possibility of closer contact, there is still no touching or physical contact allowed as per our Code of Conduct.

Speed dating is an efficient and fun way to meet and connect with lots of great potential partners through a series of brief dates. You will have three minutes to get to know each of your dates. After three minutes, you’ll move onto your next date. After all your dates have concluded, we’ll have an hour-long mingle session where you can interact with all the participants.
At the end of the night, you’ll fill out a sheet with your top dates and submit to the hosts. If there are mutual matches, we’ll connect you two. If there are none, then you can try again at the next speed dating event!

It’s a membership-based community that exists to connect folks around shared passions. The dynamic 'basecamp' houses a full bar and restaurant, bouldering wall, indoor and outdoor fire pits, hammocks, meeting space, and more! Get work done, host meetings, attend programming events, take a yoga class, make new friends -- the options, opportunities, and experiences are plentiful!

Due to the popularity of the event, we’ve decided to charge a minor fee to cover event costs. $10 allows us to pay for day of event expenses and supports us in throwing other larger events for the Seattle Singles Community.

This event is catered to male-identifying folks seeking female-identifying folks (and vis-versa). At the Seattle Social Club, we welcome and support all. For those who identify as non-heterosexual or other gender identities, check out some of our other events!
-
The Seattle Social Club caters to Seattle singles that are ages 25-40. You can expect your dates to be somewhere in this range.
-
Our speed dating events generally last around three hours with a brief intermission in the middle. We always conclude the night with an hour of mingling at the end so you can learn more about your dates before making your choices.
