Finding that special someone can be difficult if you just don’t have the time to date, but that could all change within eight minutes.

Tonight at Northern Exposure Restaurant, speeding dating went into full effect.

This is how it works: you get eight one-on-one dates, eight minutes each, a possible fun and fast way to find that special someone.

For the many people who take part is this adventurous dating process, 98 percent of them says they enjoyed themselves, while more than half find mutual matches. To keep the conversations comfortable and safe, participants don’t ask each other for contact information.

Tonight’s event is for men ages 24–35 and women, 23–33. More age groups are available.
