Here to take the pressure of your first date! and if it doesn't work out at least you get to take a masterpiece home 😉
Tired of Hinge/Tinder or whatever other new dating app the young, hot and fun people are using nowadays? Well, new dating and painting concept ‘Paint n Date’ is hitting the streets of London from 23rd of May with additional editions in June and July.
One of the best ways to meet the unwavering love of your life is to get involved in activities that you like. It sounds obvious but seriously, having a shared interest only heightens your chances of compatibility and isn’t that what we all want in our romantic relationships?
Whether you want a summer lovin’ or you’re looking for a long-term connection, Paint n Date offers a refreshing alternative to the traditional dating scene.
Picture this, you’re bonding over brushstrokes and sitting a rum punch creating beautiful memories you can tell your kids about in years to come. Ditch the swiping and consider a more intimate and interactive approach to finding love.

3) Jam Jouvert Weekend brought to you by Mingle UK
A Caribbean celebration of culture and togetherness. Ready to get stink and dutty? Jam Jouvert is the place to be for all UK lovers of Soca, Carnival and Bacchanal, taking place on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th May at the Atrium Health Club Grounds in Reading! Though we’ve not attended before, I’m hoping this year is my first year to experience this as I’m tired of the FOMO and I know enjoyment is on the other side.
Expect paint, powder, foam, water and 100% vibes! Not only that but there are live performances from Soca artists such as Viking Ding Dong, Peter Ram, V’Ghn, Leadpipe, Saddis, and Anika Berry.
Get your tickets for day 1 here and day 2 here.
That’s all for now. If we’ve missed anything, feel free to let us know on Twitter/X @sickavision or Instagram @sickavision. Also let us know if you end up booking any of the events mentioned, we’d love to know how you find them!
