ABOUT

Partner your venue with SINGLZ events

SINGLZ events organises recurring singles club nights in major cities across the Netherlands. Each event draws a ticketed audience of single adults who attend for an evening of music, drinks, and social connection in a regular club setting. This page outlines what venue partnership with SINGLZ involves, how the arrangement is structured, and what venues should consider before applying.

What hosting a SINGLZ night actually involves

A SINGLZ night operates as a standard club event DJ, bar service, and a social floor hosted within your venue. The format does not require structural changes, specialist equipment, or additional programming from the venue. The defining characteristic is a ticketed, exclusively single audience, which is managed and communicated by SINGLZ prior to the event. Venue staff operate as they would on any regular club night.

What SINGLZ manages vs. what your venue provides

SINGLZ Responsibility Venue Responsibility
Event promotion and marketing Venue space and floor management

DJ booking and event programming Compliance with local licensing requirements
On-site event team presence Technical setup: sound system and lighting

Venue fit: atmosphere, capacity, and location

  • Location Venues must be situated in or near major urban centres, currently within the Netherlands. Accessibility by public transport is a relevant factor given the event's ticketed audience.
  • Capacity The venue should comfortably accommodate a mixed-age adult audience with sufficient space for both a dance floor and social areas where conversation is possible.
  • Atmosphere A club or bar-with-DJ-setup is the standard format. Venues that function primarily as restaurants, sports bars, or event halls without a social floor are generally not suitable.
  • Operational Readiness The venue must have its own licensed bar operation, in-house security capability, and sound infrastructure in place. SINGLZ does not provide these.

Why recurring SINGLZ nights work for venue revenue

Predictable Footfall

Events draw a pre-registered, ticketed audience on dates your venue designates, providing a dependable programming slot on otherwise variable evenings.

Broad adult demographic

The audience spans three age categories 18–30, 30–45, and 45+ reflecting a mature, socially active crowd across a wide range of bar spending patterns.

Recurring format

Successful events can be scheduled at regular intervals, creating an established programming slot rather than a one-off activation with diminishing promotional investment over time.

How the partnership and commercial terms are structured

From first contact to first event night

  1. 1
    Venue enquiry The venue submits an application or expression of interest via the SINGLZ contact process, including basic details about the space and its operational setup.
  2. 2
    Initial assessment SINGLZ reviews the venue's location, capacity, atmosphere, and operational infrastructure against event requirements before proceeding.
  3. 3
    Alignment meeting If the venue is considered suitable, a meeting or call is arranged to discuss the event format, operational expectations, and the commercial structure in detail.
  4. 4
    Agreement and planning Terms are formalised covering event dates, responsibilities, and revenue arrangement. SINGLZ then handles promotion and ticket sales while the venue confirms operational readiness.
  5. 5
    First event and review The event runs with both the SINGLZ team and venue staff present. Post-event, logistics and performance are reviewed to inform future scheduling decisions.

What shapes the revenue arrangement

The capacity of the venue and the realistic audience volume it can support are central to how revenue is divided. Larger venues with higher overheads are assessed differently from smaller, more intimate spaces.

Ticket revenue and bar revenue are typically treated as separate streams. The commercial arrangement reflects which party bears which operational costs and how each revenue source is allocated between SINGLZ and the venue.

Terms may vary depending on the city, the competitive venue landscape, and the maturity of the SINGLZ audience in that location. Events in cities where SINGLZ is already established may operate under different conditions than new market entries.

Venues that commit to a recurring schedule rather than a single event may be subject to different terms, as the operational and promotional investment from SINGLZ differs accordingly.

Operational expectations on the night itself

  • Event Duration Events typically run from approximately 17:00 to 01:00. Venue staff must be available and operational for the full duration, including setup and wind-down time.
  • Security The venue is responsible for providing adequate in-venue security. The SINGLZ event team handles event-side coordination but does not replace venue security personnel.
  • Guest conduct The event operates under a clear conduct guideline: respectful behaviour and no crossing of personal boundaries. Reports of misconduct are handled jointly by the SINGLZ team and venue security.
  • Technical setup Sound and lighting must be operational prior to guest arrival. SINGLZ provides the DJ; the venue provides the infrastructure required to run the event.
  • Entry management Guest check-in is based on SINGLZ ticket records. Coordination between the SINGLZ team and venue door staff is required to manage entry accurately throughout the evening.

How to submit your venue for consideration

Venue applications are submitted directly through the SINGLZ website. The submission should include basic information about the venue: location, capacity, type of space, and current operational status. Applications are reviewed against event criteria, and venues that meet the initial requirements are contacted for a follow-up conversation. SINGLZ currently operates in the Netherlands, and partner venue applications are considered within that geographic scope.

FAQ

Not necessarily. SINGLZ events typically run on designated dates you agree to in advance, so scheduling is coordinated around your existing calendar. The format is a standalone club night, not a takeover of your regular brand. Many venues position it as a complementary slot on otherwise quieter evenings. The key question during the alignment meeting is finding dates that work for both parties without cannibalising your core audience.

 

There's no fixed industry-standard lead time, but realistically you need enough runway for SINGLZ to run ticket sales and promotion effectively. Rushing this compresses audience build-up. Expect a minimum of several weeks between agreement and event date longer for a first event in a new city where the audience isn't yet established. This is typically clarified during the planning phase after terms are agreed.

Entry is managed collaboratively. SINGLZ uses its own ticket records to verify guests, but your door staff remain present for venue-side operations. Both teams need to be aligned before guests arrive on how check-in is handled, who communicates what, and how walk-ins are treated. A brief coordination check before doors open is standard practice to avoid confusion at peak entry times.

Venue security handles in-venue safety, as they would on any regular night. The SINGLZ event team manages event-side coordination and is present throughout. For conduct-related reports, both teams respond together. There's no handoff of responsibility it's a shared operational floor. Your existing incident protocols remain in place; SINGLZ doesn't override your venue's standard procedures.

SINGLZ books and provides the DJ. Your venue provides the technical infrastructure sound system, lighting, and the stage or DJ area. You don't need to source or brief a performer. That said, your technical setup needs to be confirmed as compatible before the event date, which is part of the operational readiness check during the planning phase.

SINGLZ handles all promotion and ticket sales independently your venue doesn't carry the marketing burden. Attendance is driven by pre-sold tickets, so footfall isn't speculative in the same way as open-door events. That said, no attendance figure is guaranteed; outcomes depend on city, timing, and how established the SINGLZ audience is in your area. First events in newer markets typically perform differently from those in established ones.

Post-event, SINGLZ reviews logistics and performance before confirming future dates. If both parties are aligned, a recurring schedule can typically be agreed relatively quickly. The factors that influence this include:

  • How smoothly operations ran on the night
  • Whether audience composition met expectations
  • Venue availability for preferred dates There's no fixed waiting period, but decisions are made on a case-by-case basis rather than automatically.

SINGLZ events draw a broad adult demographic across three age groups, including the 30–45 and 45+ brackets, which typically show different spending patterns compared to younger-skewed club nights. However, bar performance depends on attendance volume, event duration, and your pricing structure none of which SINGLZ controls directly. The commercial arrangement accounts for the fact that bar revenue stays with the venue, which is part of how overall terms are structured.

Partnership terms aren't fixed permanently. As events mature in a given venue and attendance patterns become clearer, it's reasonable to revisit the arrangement. Whether terms adjust upward or otherwise depends on factors like frequency commitment, operational track record, and market conditions at the time. This is a conversation to initiate directly with SINGLZ there's no standard revision schedule, but the relationship is intended to be ongoing rather than transactional.

At Singlz, it’s not just about dating, t’s about discovering, enjoying, and connecting.
