Question 1

How does online speed dating work for singles in Fredericton?

Accepted Answer

Online speed dating with 15 First Dates runs entirely in your browser — no app to install. Each event runs structured 4–6 minute video dates with 10–15 other singles, then you mark yes, no, or friend on a private card. Mutual matches land in your inbox the same evening. Singles from Fredericton can join any of our nationwide online events.

Question 2

Do I need to live in Fredericton to join an online event?

Accepted Answer

No — 15 First Dates online events are open to singles from anywhere in Canada, which is the whole point of online speed dating. You'll meet people from Fredericton, New Brunswick, and across the country in one evening. Many Fredericton singles use it specifically to date outside their immediate friend group.

Question 3

Does online speed dating actually work?

Accepted Answer

Yes — online speed dating gives you 10–15 real, face-to-face video conversations in a single 90-minute evening, far more first impressions than weeks of swiping. 15 First Dates has hosted 1,100+ events across 20+ Canadian cities over more than 9 years and rates 4.5 out of 5 from 127 Google reviews. Because a live host runs the rotation and everyone signed up to meet someone, there's far less ghosting than on apps and no endless texting.

Question 4

What equipment do I need in Fredericton?

Accepted Answer

All you need is a working camera and microphone — most modern phones, laptops, and tablets work out of the box. 15 First Dates recommends a stable Wi-Fi connection (or LTE/5G on a phone) and a quiet, well-lit room. Nothing to download; everything runs in your browser.

Question 5

How is online speed dating better than dating apps for Fredericton singles?

Accepted Answer

In one 90-minute 15 First Dates event you meet 10–15 verified singles face-to-face — more real conversations than a month of swiping. Dating apps are endless swiping with no payoff and frequent ghosting; here a live host runs the rotation, so every person you're matched with actually shows up and talks to you. Everyone signed up specifically to meet someone that night.

Question 6

Are the other singles really verified?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every 15 First Dates attendee creates a profile, confirms their email, and joins the call with their real name and camera on. A real human hosts each event, manages the rotation, and removes anyone disruptive. It's the closest thing to meeting in person without leaving home.

Question 7

When are online events held — what works for Fredericton time zones?

Accepted Answer

Most 15 First Dates online events run on weeknight evenings (typically 7–9 PM ET / 4–6 PM PT), and the event page shows the start time in your local Fredericton time zone automatically. There are also weekend afternoon events for anyone who would rather not commit a Friday night.

Question 8

What if I'm shy or have never tried speed dating?

Accepted Answer

Online speed dating is actually easier than in-person if you're nervous: you're in your own space, you can have a drink ready, and if a date is awkward it's only 4–6 minutes before the next one. The 15 First Dates host handles every bit of logistics so you can just focus on the conversations.
