What our guests have to say...
"I would like to thank Encounter Dating for a great night. Not only did I have a chance to meet new people, I met a lovely girl at your Sydney speed dating event. We have since been seeing each other and it has been amazing. This would not have been possible without the great people at Encounter Dating."
Encounter Dating is Sydney's #1 Speed Dating & Singles Events Co. We host weekly Speed Dating Events, Singles Dinners and monthly Singles Parties.
Speed Dating in Sydney
We've re-invented speed dating by getting rid of all the boring parts and only keeping the best bits. Gone are the 'interview style' pens and papers and the pressure of having to mark your date as a 'yes' or a 'no' right there on the spot. Instead, at our events you can just relax and focus on getting to know each of your dates and at the end of the night in your own time, you can easily and discretely select who you would like to see again through our matching platform Encounter Match.
Singles Events
Swiping fatigue is real - and our singles events are made for people who want more than just endless profiles. We host singles nights across Sydney, filled with singles who are wanting to meet offline. We partner with stylish venues, creating private spaces where you can feel relaxed and free to connect without distractions or phone screens.
Singles Parties
Ready to ditch the solo nights? Our singles parties are designed to make it super easy for you to meet lots of singles in one night. If you love energy, diverse crowds, and effortless mingling - these are for you. Each party kicks off with a welcome drink, optional icebreaker games, and ample space to mingle, vibe and connect. Whether you're looking to make new friends or spark something more, our events offer the ideal atmosphere for genuine connections.
Singles Dinners
Ready for a night of great food and even better company? Our dinner parties are curated for those seeking authentic connections in a relaxed group setting. The evening begins with a welcome drink, allowing you to mingle to get to know each other before a sit down dinner. To keep the evening flowing - we'll facilitate seat rotations, ensuring you have the opportunity to connect with multiple people throughout the evening. After the dinner feel free to stay around for drinks and chat further with anyone you would like to get to know better.
Singles Trivia Nights
Our trivia nights are loads of fun and people are often more relaxed than traditional speed dating. Each table of male and female team mates will have some fun trivia questions and puzzles to solve as a group. At the end of each round, the men stand up and move on to a new table to meet a new group of ladies to team up with for the next round of trivia questions and so on. There will be prizes for the winning male and female teams and time to socialise with everyone at the end.
