About this 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
