Success Stories 💑
Many have already found love ❤️
“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 in Melbourne? If you’re a Gen X or Millennial singleton aged 30-55, our “Mid-Life Mingle” event at Diesel Bar & Eatery is the perfect opportunity to shake up your love life. Being single in Melbourne can be both thrilling and challenging, with its vibrant laneway culture and bustling coffee scene offering endless possibilities for romance. But let’s face it, swiping endlessly on dating apps can get old fast.
That’s where our speed dating event comes in, hosted at the trendy Diesel Bar & Eatery at 202 Little Lonsdale St, Melbourne VIC 3000. Easily accessible by public transport, just hop on the 86 or 96 tram and get off at the Melbourne Central station. For the fashion-conscious, swing by Emporium Melbourne to snag a stylish outfit that’ll make you stand out. You’ll be meeting singles not just from the CBD, but also from neighboring suburbs like Fitzroy and South Yarra, creating a diverse mix of potential matches.
How It Works
When you arrive at our speed dating social, you’ll be greeted by our friendly hosts who’ll give you a name card and guide you through scanning the QR code for our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0. This nifty tool lets you see a list of all attendees right on your phone, making it easier than ever to keep track of your connections. After some casual mingling at the bar, ladies take their seats while the gents rotate every 5 minutes, giving you 12 bite-sized dates throughout the evening.
As you chat, simply use the app to indicate who you’d like to “Match” or “Friend,” and you’ll receive your mutual matches’ contact details at 8am the next day. The event typically runs from 7-9pm, with a fun intermission featuring ice breaker games and conversation cards to keep the energy high. With our commitment to equal ratios, you’re guaranteed to meet 20 potential matches of the opposite sex, creating a balanced and fair dating environment that puts those endless right-swipes on Tinder or Bumble to shame.
Who You’ll Meet
So, who exactly will you meet at our Mid-Life Mingle? These are professionals in their prime, often juggling successful careers with a desire for meaningful connection. Many have weathered the storms of past relationships or divorces and are ready to embark on new romantic adventures. They’re the folks you might spot brunching in St Kilda or browsing the boutiques in Brunswick Street, having tried everything from online dating to setups by well-meaning friends.
The challenge for this demographic often lies in finding time for love amidst busy schedules and perhaps navigating the complexities of dating with kids. Our events provide a refreshing alternative, offering face-to-face connections in a relaxed setting. Pro tip: Come with an open mind and a list of engaging questions to make the most of your mini-dates. And if sparks fly, why not suggest a second date at the nearby Melbourne Museum? Nothing like a bit of natural history to kindle a new romance!

The Venue
Diesel Bar & Eatery, our chosen venue at 202 Little Lonsdale St, is more than just a bar – it’s a piece of Melbourne history. Originally built in the 1920s as a mechanic’s workshop, it was transformed into a trendy bar and eatery in 2015 by local restaurateur Sam Smith. The industrial-chic decor, with its exposed brick walls and vintage car parts, creates a unique backdrop for our speed dating events.
The spacious layout allows for comfortable mingling, while the intimate booths provide the perfect setting for those crucial 5-minute chats. Don’t miss their signature “Diesel Fuel” cocktail – it’s the perfect ice-breaker to share with a potential match. The venue’s rich history and character add an extra layer of intrigue to the speed dating experience, giving you plenty to talk about as you navigate the world of rapid-fire romance. Remember, confidence is key – so order that fancy cocktail, flash your best smile, and let the sparks fly!
