How it works
On arrival, you will be greeted by our friendly host, known for the night as locksmiths :) who will welcome you and check you in. Our Locksmiths will then give you your personal lock or key - so that's a lock if you're female and a key if you're male. These a re quite light and won't weigh you down. You are then ready to start mingling and enjoy the party.

Once you're comfortable, simply approach any member of the opposite sex to see if the key opens the lock. As you are move around the Lock and Key party, you will meet many different people and trying one another's Lock and Key serves as an ideal ice breaker giving you the chance to easily introduce yourself without any embarrassment. If the key doesn't open the lock, not to worry - onto the next person - you are on course to meet a large number of people in one night - remember it is a party after all.

If the key opens the lock, pop back to the locksmith's desk and the locksmiths will do two things – firstly, issue you with a new lock or key and secondly, enter you into a raffle draw to enable you to win prizes. So, the more raffle tickets you get, the more chance you get of winning one of the prizes. Our Lock and Key format has a very high ratio of keys that open locks so it is highly unlikely that you won't suffer the embarrassment of not getting a lock and key match. The beauty of the Lock and Key party format is that you can also play it cool, and wait for people to approach you.

What if my Key unlocks a Lock?
This will happen! With our format, you have a very high success ratio. You have a one in four chance of a key unlocking a lock.

Remember as and when a key does unlock a lock, simply return to the Locksmiths desk to be issued with another lock or key, and collect a ticket to be entered into the draw for the chance to win a number of prizes including paid dates, couples trips. Once again, the more times you change your lock or key, the more chance you have of winning one of the great prizes. That's all part of the fun, but most of the fun is in meeting new people. Expect to meet a large number of people at our Lock and Key events. The potential to meet many new people is fantastic.
