Singles Only Valentines Day Party

A singles survival guide to Valentines Day should include the hip and rockin’ “Valentines Lock and Key Party for 2011″ presented by Singles in The City at the The Dominion Bar.

There are a lot of happening Singles Only Valentines Day events all around Auckland but I have never heard of one like a lock and key party. The thing with singles party is that a lot of people are there to have fun but getting to breaking the ice is a bit harder than most people think.

Dominion Bar thought of the ultimate icebreaker by giving men keys and women locks.  For a cost of $35.00 (Group member) or $40.00 (General admission), you will receive first hardware (lock or key) upon registration, and you are all set to try and find your match. For those who do not like the first match, never fear for every key matches at least 2-4 locks! So still have chances under Cupid’s bow and if you are lucky, you could find your first match within minutes! Once you find your match, they turn in your hardware and get a new piece and start all over. The more matches you make, the more entries into the end of the night raffle for a dinner for two worth $100.

This is an interactive dating event that is far from boring. Coupled with a nice bar and great music, this is guaranteed cool party.

Enjoy the canapés and the DJ’s music as the party will starts around 8pm until 11:30pm, 12 February 2011 at the Bridgeman Room of Dominion Bar. All ages are welcome and tickets are available online.

Dominion Bar is near the city and there are parking areas available nearby. Those who have plans to party all night, it is still best to start with dinner which is also available at their restaurant.
