Meet up to 10 genuine singles in Melbourne at our chill, cultural & ethical speed dating event

Ethical Speed Dating – Melbourne

Tired of awkward apps and shallow swiping? Join us for a refreshing take on dating—real conversations, real movement, and real respect.

Join our Ethical Speed Dating Cultural Event, designed for up to 20 like-minded singles who value authenticity, consent, and meaningful connection.

What to expect:

  • Self guided walking dates scheduled using our mobile phone website (no download, no signup, no installation required) with rotating one-on-one conversations
  • Meet up to 10 liked minded singles
  • A relaxed, cultural setting—no pressure, no noise, no forced vibes
  • Balanced gender participation and capped numbers for quality over quantity

Why “ethical”?
We prioritise:

  • Consent-first interactions – clear opt-in matching, no unsolicited contact
  • Transparency – no hidden agendas, no upsells, no data misuse
  • Respectful conduct – zero tolerance for harassment or discrimination
  • Intentional matching – post-event matching only happens when both people choose it
  • Affordability – human connection should be accessible to all

This isn’t about “winning” dates—it’s about creating a space where people feel safe, respected, and genuinely seen.

Who it’s for:

  • Singles who prefer real-life connection over apps
  • People who value emotional intelligence and clear communication
  • Anyone curious about a more human, grounded way to meet others

Spots are strictly limited to 20.
If you’re ready for a dating experience that actually feels good—join us.

How it works:

The event is run via our mobile webpage app opened on atendees’ phones (no download, no signup, no installation required). Please bring a fully charged phone!

During registration, attendees are required to provide a recent selfie (so their dates can find them during the event) and a very short casual biography or what they are looking for.

Both the selfie and biography are only visible to the atendee’s dates – and nobody else.

To ensure the event runs smoothly for all, attendees are required are required to re-confirm their attendance a day before the event – keep and eye on your email!

On the day of the event, confirmed attendees are emailed a private link to the mobile webapp to see the schedule of their dates and simple instructions.

Many thanks,

Your Volunteer Ethical Speed Dating Team

PS: Follow us if tickets are sold out – we increase capacity when genders are balanced.

Walk. Talk. Connect—ethically.
