The London Connection Collective: A Singles Night with Sound & Intention

London Connection Collective: Cuffing Season 💋

Over 30s Singles Mixer & 1st Birthday Party

Sexy Single Situationship Summer is officially over. Cuffing season is well and truly underway.

And as luck would have it… we're turning ONE. 🎂

One year ago, we created London Connection Collective because we were tired of dating apps and wanted to create the kind of singles night we'd actually want to go to.

One year, six events and a lot of connections later, we're heading back to Bubba Oasis to celebrate our first birthday - and kick off cuffing season properly.

Join 100+ London singles aged 30-45 for a Friday night of music, cocktails, conversation and meeting people the old-fashioned way: in real life.

No speed dating.
No forced matchmaking.
No awkward games.

Just a room full of single people, DJs and plenty of opportunities to see who you might meet.

Put the apps down. Come outside. Cuffing season starts here.

WHO'S IT FOR?

This one's for you if:

✔️ You're single and aged 30-45

✔️ Dating apps are starting to feel like a second job

✔️ You'd rather meet someone naturally than spend another evening swiping

✔️ Music is an important part of your night out

✔️ You're open to romance, friendship, or simply meeting some new people

✔️ You want a singles event that feels more like a Friday night out than a dating event

Come alone. Bring your single friends. Either way, you'll fit right in.

THE NIGHT

🕯️ 7 PM - 11 PM | THE ROOFTOP MIXER

Summer might be over, but we're not giving up the rooftop just yet.

We'll be back on the covered and heated rooftop at Bubba Oasis, but this time we're switching things up for autumn.

Think cosy rooftop, low lighting, candles, cocktails and a room full of London singles.

🍸 A DRINK ON US

Our friends at Hanbury Gin are back for our first birthday, with a complimentary Hanbury Gin welcome drink for the first 20 guests through the door.

Our hosts will be around all evening to make introductions, our Connection Cards will be there if you need a little help getting a conversation started, and our DJs will gradually build the energy as the night goes on.

There are no rotations, bells or forced conversations.

Talk to who you want. Stay as long as you want. See where the night takes you.

Then at 11 PM...

💋 11 PM - 2 AM | THE SINGLES AFTERS

We're taking things downstairs.

The mixer might be over, but the night definitely isn't.

From 11 PM, we'll move into the downstairs lounge for our Singles Afters, where the music goes up, the lights go down, and we carry on until 2 AM.

Two spaces. Two energies. One night.

HOW IT WORKS

We don't want to over-engineer meeting someone.

So we keep things simple.

✔️ Doors open at 7 PM

✔️ Arrive early, grab a drink and settle in while the room fills up

✔️ Pick up one of our signature Connection Cards

✔️ Meet our hosts - we're always happy to introduce you to someone

✔️ Mingle, chat, dance, flirt… whatever feels natural

✔️ Head downstairs with us at 11 PM for the Singles Afters

✔️ Last entry is 9 PM, so don't leave it too late

CONNECTION CARDS

We know walking up to a complete stranger and starting a conversation isn't always as easy as it looks.

That's why we created our Connection Cards.

Filled with funny, light-hearted and occasionally revealing questions, they're designed to give you an easy way into a conversation when “So… what do you do?” isn't quite cutting it.

They're completely optional.

Grab one. Don't grab one. Steal your friend's.

Sometimes one question is all it takes.

THE MUSIC

Music has always been at the heart of London Connection Collective.

This time, we're taking things from rooftop mixer to late-night party.

Expect a mashup of:

R&B • Hip-Hop • Afrobeats • Amapiano • House

ROOFTOP MIXER | 7 PM–11 PM
Three DJs setting the tone upstairs while you meet, mingle and settle into the night.

SINGLES AFTERS | 11 PM–2 AM
Then we head downstairs, where three more DJs take over, and the mixer turns into the afters.

Selectors across the night:
Rooftop:
DJ Grounded • DJ JSG • Troppo Daffy

Afters:
Ricky Sahota • Sully Sounds • T1

COME EARLY

We always recommend arriving between 7 PM-8 PM.

It's when everyone is settling in, conversations are starting, and it's easiest to get yourself into the flow of the night.

COMING ALONE?

Please do.

A huge number of people come to our events solo, so you absolutely won't be the only person walking through the door without a plus one.

We also know that the first five minutes can feel daunting.

Our hosts will be around throughout the night, so if you want someone to introduce you to a group, another solo guest or simply be the first friendly face you see when you arrive, come and find us.

We'll take it from there.

🎂 ONE YEAR OF LONDON CONNECTION COLLECTIVE

This one feels particularly special to us.

A year ago, London Connection Collective started with a simple idea:

What if singles events actually felt like nights we'd want to go to?

So we created one.

Since then, we've watched strangers become friends, numbers get exchanged, dates happen, dance floors fill up and our little community grow with every event.

And now we're turning one.

So whether you've been with us from the beginning or 2nd October is your first LCC night, come and celebrate with us.

One year of putting the apps down and meeting in real life.

Here's to whatever - and whoever - comes next. 🥂

TICKETS

We carefully manage ticket numbers to create the best possible balance and atmosphere at our events.

Tickets are limited and once a ticket category sells out, we can't guarantee more will be released.

If you're coming with friends, we'd recommend booking together rather than waiting for someone else to grab theirs later.

CAN'T MAKE IT?

If your plans change and you're no longer able to attend, we'd really appreciate you letting us know.

Because we carefully manage numbers, every guest makes a difference. Giving us notice means we may be able to offer your place to somebody on the waiting list.

Thank you for helping us create the best night possible. ❤️

ABOUT LONDON CONNECTION COLLECTIVE

London Connection Collective was born from two single women who were completely over dating apps.

We wanted somewhere people could put their phones away, meet in real life and connect through music - without the awkwardness that can come with traditional dating events.

So we built it ourselves.

No algorithms.
No forced matchmaking.
No pressure.

Just genuine opportunities to meet people you might never have crossed paths with otherwise.

You might leave with a number.

You might leave with a date.

You might leave with a new friend.

Or you might simply leave having had a bloody good Friday night.

We'll take any of the above.
