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
Ever wondered what would happen if you could meet a dozen potential partners in one night, without the hassle of swiping right or crafting the perfect opening message? Welcome to speed dating, the ultimate face-to-face mixer for Melbourne singles aged 40-65! In a city where finding love can be as unpredictable as the weather, we’re here to brighten your romantic forecast. Join us at the iconic Hotel Railway Brunswick, located at 291 Albert St, Brunswick VIC 3056, where connections happen faster than a barista can whip up a flat white.
Getting here is a breeze – hop on the Upfield line to Brunswick Station or catch the 19 tram along Sydney Road. Not sure what to wear? Channel your inner hipster-chic with a trip to the vintage shops on Sydney Road, or class it up with some threads from Barkly Square. Whether you’re coming from the artistic enclave of Fitzroy or the leafy streets of Coburg, you’re in for a night that’ll make your Melbourne dating experience more exciting than finding a secret laneway bar.
How It Works
Here’s how the magic happens: You’ll be armed with a name tag and our state-of-the-art Matching App 4.0 – think Tinder, but with actual eye contact and no chance of being catfished by a bot from Bundoora. Ladies, you’ll be seated like queens at the Comedy Theatre, while the gents play musical chairs that would put the MCG’s Kiss Cam to shame. You’ll enjoy 12 five-minute dates from 7-9pm, with conversation cards to break the ice faster than the Yarra River freezes over (which is never, but you get the point).
At 8pm, we’ll call a cheeky intermission – perfect for a quick trip to the loo or to order another round of liquid courage. The best part? No more awkward “Can I have your number?” moments. Just select your matches on the app, and if it’s mutual, you’ll get their contact details at 8am the next day, giving you plenty of time to craft the perfect “Fancy a coffee at Lygon Street?” text. With 20 men and 20 women, the odds are better than trying to snag a table at Chin Chin on a Saturday night!
Who You’ll Meet
So, who’ll you meet? Picture a room full of Melbourne’s finest – we’re talking successful professionals who’ve climbed higher than the Eureka Skydeck, creative types who could give the NGV a run for its money, and adventurous souls who think a trip to Mornington Peninsula is a bit too tame. These are people who’ve lived life – they can regale you with stories of their backpacking days and debate the best coffee in Melbourne (spoiler: it’s all of them). They’re at a stage where Netflix and chill sounds great, but so does a spontaneous weekend trip to the Yarra Valley.
The Melbourne dating scene can be tougher than trying to get tickets to the Australian Open men’s final, but here’s a pro tip: come with an open mind and a few conversation starters about local hotspots. Who knows, you might bond over your shared love of hidden rooftop bars or debate the best dumpling spot in Chinatown. And if you hit it off, why not suggest a second date at the Royal Botanic Gardens? Nothing says romance like a picnic with a view of the city skyline.
Your Host
This isn’t our first rodeo – Speed Dating Social has been playing Cupid since Darcy Todd founded it back in 2020. We’ve hosted 787 events and introduced a whopping 37,423 singles. That’s more matches than there are trams in the City Circle! We’re all about fairness, so we maintain an equal ratio of men to women. Tickets are a steal at $29.90 for early birds, or $34.90 if you’re a last-minute decision maker (no refunds, though – we’re not as flexible as a yoga class in Collingwood). Got questions? Drop us a line at matches@speeddatingsocial.com – we’re friendlier than a barista at your local cafe on a Sunday morning.
The Venue
Now, let’s talk about our venue. Hotel Railway Brunswick isn’t just any old pub – it’s a Brunswick institution with more character than Flinders Street Station on New Year’s Eve. With its classic Victorian architecture, warm lighting, and a bar that’s seen more action than the MCG, it’s the perfect backdrop for your romantic endeavors. Their signature cocktail, the “Brunswick Bellini,” is the perfect conversation starter – or ender, depending on how smoothly you can handle your peach puree. Speed dating here is like being in your own Melbourne rom-com, but with better lighting and a higher chance of a happy ending.
And if things go well, you can always suggest a follow-up date at the nearby Cinema Nova – nothing says “I’m a cultured Melburnian” like a night at an arthouse cinema, right? So there you have it, Melbourne singles! It’s time to put down the smashed avo, step away from the dating apps, and take a chance on real-life chemistry. Who knows? Your perfect match could be just 12 five-minute conversations away. Don’t let your love life be as unpredictable as Melbourne’s weather – dive into the exciting world of speed dating and make a splash in Melbourne’s dating pool!
