What is Tortelen?
Tortelen is game dating. Speed dating, but fun. A fresh alternative to both swiping and traditional speed dates. At Tortelen, you play eight different games that help you get to know each other in a meaningful way. In a relaxed setting, you meet new people without having to break the ice yourself. We give you the first push.
Keep your phone in your pocket and experience how someone moves, reacts, and plays along during a first meeting. Watch how cooperation, creativity, and humor emerge without falling into a standard Q&A session. No shallow conversations, just spontaneous interactions that reveal who someone really is!
Our philosophy is simple: Matching is fun, but dating can be fun even without matching.
After each event we send out a survey. In that survey people share their opinion so that each event becomes a little bit better. A lot of nice things are said in that survey.
“You guys are incredible stars!”
Very nicely thought out, so much better than just speed dating. It didn't feel like dating at all, while you were doing that. Although I usually think pretty quickly about grabbing my phone, I didn't think about that for a second tonight.
“I thought it was really cool! Super nice concept and also super chill atmosphere! Felt safe, relaxed and cozy.”
“I was so hyped when I heard about this concept and you guys have more than met all expectations. A thousand kudos!”
“Jullie creëren iets, wat wij met z’n allen maken. Ik heb het met IEDEREEN leuk gehad. Heel bijzonder”
How important is privacy to you? For us it is very important. But even more important to us is enjoying the date, without needing the phone. Both the participants and the organization use very few phones during the event. So these are the photos you have to make do with!
Tortelen is gamedaten. A unique form of speed dating where people get to know each other in a fun and relaxed way through interactive games and good conversations.

Each event has its own minimum and maximum age. If your event is not listed, please fill in the form on the page to be kept informed of new events with your preferences.
No! You will always be dating with people around your age.
For example:
The event is for the ages between 26 to 37.
You are 36.
Your dates will mainly be between 34 and 37!
Unfortunately, that happens! In any case, we organize the evening in a way that you will have a nice evening, regardless of your number of matches. Also, everyone goes home with an envelope full of compliments from the other participants. For many, this is the best part of Tortelen.
Including drinks afterwards, you will be Tortelening for approximately 3 hours.
When you buy a ticket, we only ask for information that we actually use. Your address or date of birth are none of our business, right 😉
When you have a match, we share your telephone number with your match.
This can be done via 2 channels:
Tortelen makes speed dating fun and relaxed with original games and a cozy atmosphere. Meet new people in a playful and natural way!
