About this event

** The online presale is now closed. We will however be doing limited tickets on the door for £30 cash only. We currently have over 350 people booked with a perfect 50/50 gender split!

You won't find a bigger/better Valentines party than this - we're expecting around 500 people at this fabulous party! Our 2009 party had too many people at almost 700, so this year we are strictly selling 500 tickets only and they WILL sell out! All the activities listed below are included with your ticket! No extras to pay apart from drinks.

Lock and Key Party
A great ice breaker! Women are given locks and men are given keys. Then you circulate looking for someone who fits your lock or key. Find a match and you can go up to collect a raffle ticket for a chance to win some great prizes. Top prizes include Dom Perignon Champagne and a FREE tour up to the value of £500 with Tucan Travel! The tour can be any world wide destination you choose from the their 10/11 brochure. T&C's apply. SpeedDater customers also get a 10% discount off all group tours booked with Tucan Travel. http://www.tucantravel.com/about-us/events-diary/

Optional speed dating
In a separate room we'll be running speed dating - a brilliant way to meet people at the party in a series of fun, three minute dates. If you would like to join in, please sign up for a session at registration. Sessions are in 45 minute blocks, so you must be ready to date at least 5 minutes before your sessions begins or you will lose your place! Speed dating is always very popular, so please arrive by 7pm to guarantee a place. Sessions are booked on a first come, first served basis.

Photo wall
Have your photo taken digitally, printed out in 8 seconds flat by our state of the art digital printer and added to our photo wall. You can look through the photo wall for people you like the look of and leave a flirt card for them. Don't forget to collect your flirt cards by 11pm! You will also be able to see a picture of everyone who attended the party on our website on Monday.
