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
Looking for genuine connections in Melbourne’s vibrant inner north? Join our sophisticated speed dating evening at Hotel Railway Brunswick, where we’re bringing together accomplished singles aged 40-65 who appreciate that romance gets better with age – just like a fine Yarra Valley wine. If you’ve found that dating in Melbourne feels more meaningful now that you know exactly what you’re looking for, you’ll find kindred spirits here. Located at 291 Albert St, Brunswick, we’re easily accessible via the 19 tram or a short stroll from Brunswick station. Dress code is smart casual – think sophisticated but comfortable, like you’d wear to a Sunday session at Mr. Wilkinson’s or a jazz evening at Bar Oussou. Whether you’re coming from the leafy streets of Northcote or the established neighborhoods of Coburg, you’ll find yourself among people who value authentic connections over superficial swipes.
How It Works
Your evening begins with a warm welcome and our streamlined check-in process, featuring our Matching App 4.0 that takes the guesswork out of connection tracking. Ladies settle in at comfortable tables while gentlemen rotate every five minutes – perfect for those who appreciate efficient yet meaningful conversations.
From 7-9pm, you’ll enjoy 12 five-minute dates, with thoughtfully curated ice breakers that go beyond the usual “what do you do?” At 8pm, we break for drinks and casual mingling, letting natural connections flourish. Our conversation cards spark discussions about travel dreams, favorite local haunts, and life experiences – because at this stage of life, we all have stories worth sharing. With an equal ratio of 20 men and 20 women, we ensure a balanced, respectful environment.
Who You’ll Meet
Our events attract accomplished professionals who know themselves well – educators sharing tales from their inner-city classrooms, creatives who’ve mastered their craft in Brunswick’s art scene, business owners who’ve built something meaningful, and professionals enjoying their peak career years. Many are parents with grown children, others have focused on careers, and all appreciate the value of finding someone who understands life’s journey. The dating scene at this age has its unique rewards – you know what you want, you’ve developed interesting hobbies, and you’re ready for genuine companionship. Share stories about your favorite Sydney Road cafes, debate the best spots for Sunday brunch, or plan a potential second date at the Brunswick Velodrome Food Trucks – because romance in your prime years should be both comfortable and exciting.

Speed Dating Social, founded by Darcy Todd in 2020, has successfully hosted over 787 events, introducing more than 37,423 singles. We pride ourselves on maintaining equal ratios of men and women at every event, ensuring a balanced and enjoyable experience for all.

The Venue
Hotel Railway Brunswick isn’t just another venue; it’s a historic cornerstone of Brunswick’s social scene that’s been thoughtfully modernized while retaining its character-filled charm. The venue’s warm lighting and intimate seating areas create the perfect atmosphere for meaningful conversation, while the grand bar serves as an elegant focal point. Try their signature “Brunswick Boulevardier” – a sophisticated twist on a classic that’s perfect for settling any first-date butterflies.
The spacious layout allows for comfortable interaction while maintaining an intimate atmosphere that encourages genuine connection. Before or after the event, take a stroll through the historic Brunswick streets – perhaps along the Merri Creek Trail or past CERES Environment Park, offering plenty of conversation starters about local history and community. These shared discoveries often lead to perfect second-date ideas, whether it’s a Sunday market adventure or a cozy dinner at one of the many celebrated local restaurants.
