Nebraska Union, Platte River Room
Ditch the dating apps and take a chance to organically discover new friends or possibly a date for Valentine’s Day.
A very popular event. More than 275 students have participated since 2024.
Think speed dating - with a twist.

Fly solo, bring friends, or just attend for the vibes. It is a low-pressure setting. Come as you are and let Cupid handle the rest.
Throughout the evening, enjoy free Valentine candies, mocktail drinks, and good music, too.
FREE for UNL students with Event Pass.
Attendees should arrive early - doors open promptly at 7 p.m.
