30s & 40s Singles Night at Harry's Bar Newcastle
FAQ
Yes, and most people do. Most guests arrive on their own, and plenty come with a single friend or two, which also works out cheaper. Either way, nobody is walking into a room full of established groups.
Your host is on the door to greet you and check you in, and the icebreakers at 7:30pm exist precisely so that you are not left to start conversations cold.
If arriving alone is the thing making you hesitate, it is the most common thing our guests tell us they worried about and the most common thing they tell us afterwards was fine.
Not as standard. The night runs on hosted icebreakers and relaxed mingling.
There is a host and a Cosmic Cupid at every single one of our events. They are there to keep the night running smoothly, to make sure everyone gets a chance to talk to the people they want to talk to, and to make sure you feel safe and that you are getting real value out of the evening.
If the whole group decides on the night that they fancy some speed dating, we will run it. It is just not part of the normal format.
Not a thing. You do not need to know your rising sign, your birth chart or what a Scorpio is supposed to be like. The astrology runs quietly in the background through the app, which does the work for you. Plenty of guests arrive as complete sceptics and have a very good night.
This night is for single people in their thirties and forties. Everyone in the room is single and there by choice.
We sell tickets separately to men and women and cap each, so the room stays close to an even split rather than tipping heavily one way.
It is not compulsory, but the night is a great deal better with it, and we recommend installing it before you arrive rather than in the queue.
- Check-in is quicker
- The icebreakers run through the app
- The Match function shows your compatibility with other people in the room, which saves a great deal of small talk
- Hitting an 85% or higher match with someone gets you both an extra entry into the monthly Cosmic Dip prize draw
- You can carry on chatting to people in the app after the event, which is the part most people are glad of the next day
Whatever you feel good in. Most people land somewhere around smart casual, the sort of thing you would wear to a nice bar, because that is essentially what it is.
Yes, and the more of you there are the cheaper it gets. The booking page works out the saving for you as you add tickets.

Anyone coming does need to be single, since these nights are for single people. If you would rather bring a friend who is not single, our Wellness at First Sign events are open to everyone and involve no matchmaking at all.
Tickets are non-refundable, but they are transferable with reasonable notice. You can move your ticket to another Love at First Sign event or pass it to a friend. Email hello@loveatfirstsign.co.uk and we will sort it out.
No, food and drinks are not included in the ticket. The bar is open all evening and you buy your own. Your ticket covers entry, your host and Cosmic Cupid for the evening, and the icebreakers.
