A singles dinner in Rio de Janeiro, step by step

When you book

Pick a singles event

Choose a singles dinner, or a singles coffee where your city runs one. Booking stays open until 13 hours before.
Before the dinner

We put the table together

Everyone at the table booked a singles event. We keep a balance of men and women and group people by age band, then book the restaurant.
8:00 pm The start

In person first

You get a sense of someone across a table, from how they laugh to what they order, before any private messages. No one-to-one date to get through, just a table of people to talk to.
Afterwards

If you like someone

The group chat stays open, and in the app you can stay connected with anyone from the table. What happens next is up to the two of you.

Safety

Is it safe?

Singles events are at public venues we've vetted, and nobody can message you one to one before you meet. If you report someone, you're never placed with them again.

99%

Over 99% of Timeleft experiences happen without any safety incident, according to the safety framework we published in June 2026.

What members say

Signed up in March 2024 to meet more people. It is 2026 and I have indeed met more people - including my fiancé. And the 50 or so time lefters who we invited to our wedding.

I moved to London last year and within a few weeks I decided to try Timeleft and I met some really interesting people, and ironically one of them became my partner and we are now planning our future together. It was my intention to make new friends, so this was an unexpected bonus. Thank you, Timeleft!

I was at a birthday dinner and asked a girl how she met my friend. She said at a Timeleft dinner! I had never heard of the app, but I decided to give it a go. I have been to two dinners so far and plan to go to more…

Questions from singles

When are singles events in Rio de Janeiro?

Singles dinners, Tuesdays at 8:00 pm. Booking closes 13 hours before each one, or at midnight the night before if that would fall between midnight and 8:00 am. The dates above are the next ones you can still book.

Where in Rio de Janeiro do singles events happen?

The next ones include Zona Sul. We book the restaurant, and the app shows you where to go before the evening.

Is it like speed dating?

Not quite. Speed dating gives you a few minutes with each person. Here you share a whole dinner with a small table of singles, so a conversation has time to go somewhere. Afterwards you can stay connected in the app with anyone you got on with.

Who will be at the table?

Other singles who booked the same evening. We group people by age band and keep a balance of men and women.

Can I go on my own?

Yes. You book on your own and we put the table together, so you don't need to bring anyone.

What does it cost?

Booking takes a Timeleft membership, and the app shows its price in your country before you pay anything.

As many events as you like, singles events included. Dinners, coffee and whatever else runs in your city, all on one membership.

Your own food and drinks. You order what you like and pay the venue yourself.
