“When I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations
You may not find someone the first time or the 10th time, but at least these guys take the trouble to show up and put their best foot forward. They are making the effort which is more than I can say for some people on online dating sites – and that’s not even counting the sleazeballs.
– a happy attendee”
“I would like to let you know that last month,
“I just wanted to let you know…
So thank you for all the effort in putting these events together… don’t worry about giving me a refund on the ticket, maybe you can give that to someone that rocks up on the night without a ticket as I know how hard They are to get. thanks so much again.”

Event Details
Are you ready to dive into the exciting world of speed dating? If you’re a single professional aged 31-47 looking for love in Melbourne, you’re in for a treat! Welcome to the “Midlife Mingles” speed dating event at Diesel Bar & Eatery, where romance meets efficiency in the heart of the city. Being single in Melbourne can be both exhilarating and overwhelming, with its bustling laneways and hidden bars offering endless possibilities for chance encounters. But why leave it to chance when you can meet like-minded singles in a structured, fun environment?
Located at 202 Little Lonsdale St, Diesel Bar & Eatery is the perfect backdrop for our speed dating soirée. Easily accessible by public transport, just hop on the 86 or 96 tram and alight at the Melbourne Central station. For the fashion-conscious, swing by Emporium Melbourne to grab a chic outfit that’ll make you stand out. You’ll be rubbing shoulders with singles from neighboring suburbs like Carlton and Fitzroy, creating a diverse mix of urban professionals eager to connect.
How It Works
As you arrive at the venue, you’ll be greeted by our friendly hosts who’ll provide you with a name card and guide you through the process of scanning the QR code for our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0. This nifty tool allows you to see a list of all attendees right on your phone – talk about a tech-savvy way to break the ice! After some initial mingling at the bar, ladies take their seats while the gents rotate every 5 minutes, giving you 12 exciting mini-dates throughout the evening.
The best part? You can discreetly select ‘Match’ or ‘Friend’ on your app, and if the feeling’s mutual, you’ll receive their contact details at 8am the next day. It’s like having your own personal Cupid in your pocket! With an equal ratio of 20 men to 20 women, you’re guaranteed to have someone to chat with, unlike the endless swiping on dating apps that often leads nowhere. Plus, our ice breaker games and conversation cards ensure you’ll never run out of things to say.
Who You’ll Meet
So, who exactly will you meet at “Midlife Mingles”? These are accomplished professionals in their prime, juggling successful careers with a desire for meaningful connections. Many have tried online dating platforms like Tinder or eHarmony but crave the authenticity of face-to-face interactions. They’re at a stage in life where they know what they want – whether it’s a long-term relationship or a compatible partner to share adventures with.
Common challenges include limited time for dating due to work commitments and navigating the dating scene after divorce or as single parents. Our speed dating events offer a solution, providing a curated experience that cuts through the noise of modern dating. Pro tip: Be open, authentic, and don’t be afraid to show your quirky side – it’s often what makes you memorable! And if you hit it off with someone special, why not suggest a second date at the nearby State Library Victoria? Nothing says romance like whispering sweet nothings among the bookshelves!

The Venue
Diesel Bar & Eatery isn’t just any venue – it’s a Melbourne institution with a rich history. Originally a wool storage facility in the 1920s, it was transformed into a trendy bar and eatery in 2015 by hospitality mogul Paul Adamo. The industrial-chic interior, with its exposed brick walls and vintage machinery, creates a unique atmosphere that’s both intimate and exciting for speed dating. The mezzanine level offers a perfect vantage point for our hosts to oversee the event, while the cozy booths downstairs provide just the right amount of privacy for those mini-dates.
Don’t miss their signature cocktail, the “Diesel Fueled Romance” – a spicy concoction that’s sure to break the ice and spark conversation. The venue’s eclectic mix of music, from smooth jazz to indie rock, keeps the energy high throughout the night. Pro tip: Arrive a few minutes early to soak in the ambiance and calm any pre-dating jitters. Remember, everyone’s in the same boat, and at Diesel Bar & Eatery, love might just be waiting around every corner!
