Tired of the Grind? Authentic Dating is back, in a sparkly new venue!

Here’s your chance to connect more authentically, in person, with men both like-minded and different. Come along, grab a wine and have some fun!

You’ll have six encounters throughout the night. Each will be carefully guided, inviting you to be yourself, to communicate openly, and simply relax, allowing you to really kick the nerves out of dating.

Authentic Dating has already been a big hit in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch! Here’s what others have said:

"This has been the most positive experience I've had in meeting genuine souls with the intention of finding love/romance for over 6 years" - Matthew

"Laurie led us through a series of games and exercises that allowed us to open up and create very real bonds with others and with our own selves. Many emotions were felt in the safest, most welcoming environment" - Jason

Authentic Dating welcomes all men aged 18+ who identify as gay, bi, queer or trans, as well as people who identify somewhere on a gender-fluid male-to-non-binary spectrum.
