Speed Dating Makes a Comeback on Eventbrite

Eventbrite, the ultimate source for gathering IRL, has seen speed dating events surge 63% compared to last year (comparing January – April 2022 data). 

During the first year(s) of the pandemic, people were swiping more than ever because IRL meet-cutes weren’t possible. Now, singles are sick of the swipe and ready for action. While some of Eventbrite’s speed dating events are virtual – singles are getting more than a headshot and a one-liner with this resurgence of this once polarizing trend.
