Speed Dating at State Library Victoria: Queer Session

Town: Melbourne

Address: 328 Swanston Street, Melbourne, 3000, VIC

Classes, Lessons, Workshops and Talks, Concert or Performance

Swipe fatigue ends here. Remember when people met in person? It’s time for a real-life meet cute in one of Melbourne’s most romantic buildings.

This autumn, State Library Victoria is partnering with Crush Club to host one of Melbourne’s largest speed dating events.

Set underneath the iconic Dome and within The Ian Potter Queen’s Hall, singles will break out into groups and enjoy five-minute one-on-one speed dates with potential suitors.

Conversations will be aided by prompts on the tables with questions to spark connection, flirtation, laughter and the occasional healthy debate – from whether Ross and Rachel were really on a break, to sharing a memorable (or hilariously bad) first date story.

Attendees will be grouped by age brackets, with separate sessions running across different spaces within the Library. Please check the State Library of Victoria website for details on the schedule for sessions for different age brackets.
