Chicago Speed Dating, Hosted with Experience

MyCheekyDate hosts professionally organized speed dating events in Chicago, bringing together local singles for structured, in-person conversations — no swiping, no guesswork. With over 1,700 events hosted in Chicago and more than 26,000 across 50+ cities, each evening follows a proven, host-led format refined over nearly two decades.

Events take place in neighborhoods like the West Loop at venues such as Recess and Tabu, creating a relaxed, social setting. To keep things balanced, we monitor attendance and may occasionally adjust the schedule in advance — a deliberate choice to protect the experience. Your ticket always remains valid for a future Chicago event, and if you prefer not to attend a rescheduled event, you may request a refund. It’s all part of the Cheeky Guarantee - keeping things flexible and centered around a genuinely good night out.


“Always have a great time at these events. From the host to the daters, everyone is just so welcoming.”
