Pub quiz with singles anyone? Plus your first drink is free: gin & tonic (or any mixer!), beer or wine is on us. Plus the pub quiz winners get iconic prizes that will be announced on the day…

We so excited to be taking over Steam in the heart of Clifton, Bristol for a huge bank holiday event. Expect great music, lots of games and matching to compatible people, as well as icebreakers on tables.

Here’s the plan:

3pm – doors open, everyone grabs a free drink in the beer garden (first one’s on us!) and meets eachother (we provide light icebreakers to chat to everyone)

4pm – we will introduce you to your group (who we have matched through our algorithm to share similar interests to you) 

4:15pm – we will begin Haystack’s special pub quiz…. this is going to be done in your groups on a beer garden bench hosted by our awesome Haystack rep

4:45pm – after a quick break we will introduce you to another group of people to continue with part 2 of the pub quiz

5pm – part 2 of the pub quiz will commence with your new group!

after the pub quiz and matching – we have brought in great festival style lawn games and have the great venue for the evening to enjoy the space and meet everyone else in the event!

10pm – venue closes

We have an amazing, very subtle team on hand to help facilitate introductions to whoever wants them and we’re a small team who absolutely bloody love what we do.

Everyone’s single and 94% of people come alone.

See you there?

FAQs

Are dating events worth it?

We have worked very hard to make events for single people that don’t feel like a typical “dating event” which we know can feel very overwhelming. We just hire out great venues, invest into fun entertainment, and match single people together into groups on the evening so you can go on multiple dates in a low-pressure environment. There are always new dating apps popping up, which all have the same culture of ghosting, shallowness, and let’s be honest we can barely keep up with our family’s whatsapp chat let alone a dating app.

What are our dating events?

Our events use the power of tech to connect similar single people together. When you arrive to the venue you’ll be greeted by our lovely reps, and then you’ll be introduced to your matched group. Depending on the event we will introduce you to another one or two rounds of single people, where we match you by differently weighting the parameters of the algorithm. We re-invest profit into fun entertainment on the evening so you have a great night regardless – and host a range of events from relaxed drinks in a beer garden, to something a bit more active like arcade games, to sporty events such as tag rugby or rock climbing.

How do you match single people?

When you buy a ticket you fill out a short form with some questions about yourself mapped around research we conducted to what leads to meaningful connections. We then run this through our algorithm which is a propietary points based matching system using python to detect similarities between each person based on different parameters. We then spend hours going through each person to make sure there has been no discrepancies in the data and even more hours to make sure the group ages and ratios are appropriate. Afterwards we analyse each table to make sure they are placed near tables we think we will match well, and that are in the best place in the venue based on what we know about the group.

PS (again xx)

All data is securely managed in line with our data policy which can be found here

We’re a sociable bunch and always like to take short video clips for our social media. We’ll always avoid faces wherever possible, but if you’d rather stay 100% off camera please just come and let the team know on the night so we can make a conscious effort to keep you out of any frame!

There’s a huge amount of work behind the scenes before events to get everyone matched into great groups. If you need to transfer your ticket to a friend, we do ask please that you pop us an email with their name 7 days before an event so we can move things around. As with every other events company in our space, we are unable to facilitate refunds but we will always do our 100% best to find a solve!x
