Calling all gay men aged 45+ who'd like to get off the apps and meet some people face to face!

While dating is the premise for most, people come to speed dating for all sorts of reasons - to those who just wish to socialise and make some friends, you are also very welcome to join us.

Attendees can expect an event that is guided and facilitated by an experienced host that values safety and inclusivity.

How will it work? We try to keep things structured by splitting attendees into two groups at random; half stay at a table, and the other half rotate. As people come and go this gets changed up a bit, and people are given opportunities to try things the old fashioned way during breaks. We don't do scorecards, but do provide pen & paper at each table for those who'd like to exchange numbers (just in case phone won't do the trick); this is to encourage more authentic interactions!

NOTE: If you are experiencing financial hardship and can't afford a ticket, please reach out to an organiser to discuss :)

Gay & Queer Speed Dating can be found on Instagram, Facebook, and Meetup; please follow us for details about upcoming events.
