This Valentine’s day, Generator, the global hospitality leader, is joining forces with OkCupid to host a daring speed-dating event that’s rewriting the rulebook on honesty in dating. Taking place on Thursday, 13 February 2025 at Generator London, the event is not for the faint-hearted, offering insight into someone’s quirks right off the bat.
Let’s face it: in a world where we’re all trying to play it cool, the truth is rarely seen on the first date. We’ve all been there, pretending to be a little more laid-back, patient, or charming than we really are – but the truth always prevails. Wouldn’t you prefer to know exactly what you’re dealing with in the first five minutes instead of six months down the line?
Enter Red Flag Romance, a bold speed-dating experience designed by Generator and OkCupid to shake up the dating scene. As part of their mission to celebrate “three decades of connection,” Generator is taking things one step further by offering travelers not just unforgettable stays, but the experience to find real love and an opportunity make genuine connections
From “chronically late” to “overthinks everything,” no quirk is too bold, with attendees kicking off the evening with a short quiz – designed by leading relationship expert Vicki Pavitt which will reveal their biggest “red flag.” Whether your toxic trait is “I say I want the truth, but get mad when I get it” or “I assume we’re soulmates because we ordered the same drink,” radical honesty is the name of the game and attendees will proudly wear their red flag as a badge of honour throughout the evening.
While the idea of speed dating with full transparency might seem daunting, OkCupid’s forward-thinking approach encourages participants to flaunt their red flags, in order to cultivate authentic and genuine connections in a world filled with white lies and chronic ghosters.
At the end of the night, Generator will offer an overnight stay in their exclusive “Red Flag Room”, for the couple most keen to explore their newfound connection. After mingling and matching, participants will vote for the pair they believe shared the best chemistry (quirks included) to win the room!
With beats from DJ FE:lix, who will keep the vibe lively, and a curated selection of drinks and snacks to ensure the spirits remain high, singles can enjoy an evening of genuine connection this Valentine’s. This unique event will also be available at Generator locations across Europe, including Paris, Berlin, and Amserdam as well as the brand’s US properties, offering travelers across the continent the chance to find love in the most refreshingly honest way possible.
So, whether your red flag is ghosting people or overthinking every text, come join us for a night of humour, connection, and red flags
