Amsterdam’s Outdoor Film Festival Pluk De Nacht Tries Its Hand at Matchmaking

By Amsterdam City Tours

object.10.imgGoing out to the movies is a typical move for first date.

Boy meets girl, boy likes girl, girl likes boy, girl asks boy out to see World War Z (because girls are awesome and that's how we roll).

Sometimes it ends with "and they all lived happily after after." Sometimes it ends with zombies eating their brains. But however the date ends, you get to ring in that first meeting with some (hopefully) good entertainment.

Pluk de Nacht, however, decided to shake things up a bit with their blind date program. In this set-up, boy goes to see a movie, girl goes to see a movie, film organizers take a guess at which boy will like which girl and vice versa, boy and girl watch movie and see if love blossoms.

Cinema-obsessed singles have given themselves up for this little experiment, which proved to be more than successful it's first time out at last year's festival. The would-be couples are seated side-by-side in what are called Loveseats, where they will enjoy the film of their choice... and hopefully a whole lot more!

Still skeptical? Check out love birds Veronica and Guus as well as ten other Pluk de Nacht couples that are still going strong almost a year later.

See if love is in the cards for you at Pluk de Nacht 2013 and send an email to [email protected] to book your own Loveseat. Or just grab your ticket and enjoy a great movie.

With friends, family, lovers, or alone, you can't go wrong at Pluk the Nacht.
