You can talk about anything you like. But hobbies, work-life, family, travel and other interests are all good. A good opener is to ask whether the person has speed dated before. If they have been to lots of events, choose more unusual questions to avoid a sense of repetition for them (thatll help you stand out).

How do you do a fast date?

Approach speed dating with a positive attitude. Look at it as a fun, pressure-free event. Keep an open mind about who you will meet and be prepared that you may or may not find someone you like. There is no pressure and if this round of speed dates doesnt work for you, you can always try again.
