About this organizer
Meet singles in real life with Merge Dating.
Founded in Sydney in 2024, Merge Dating was created as a fresh alternative to dating apps — bringing singles together at relaxed, hosted events where meeting someone new actually feels natural.
Now running events across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra, Newcastle, the Central Coast, Wollongong,and regional locations across NSW, Merge has grown into one of Australia's fastest-growing singles event communities.
No apps. No speed dating. Natural vibes. Just real people, proper face-to-face conversations and a relaxed night out.
Our events are designed primarily around natural mingling, with friendly Merge hosts there to welcome everyone, introduce people and run a few light icebreakers to help get conversations started.
We run events for a wide range of ages and communities, along with themed nights, cultural events, LGBTQ+ events and plenty of different ways to meet.
Ready to get off the apps and meet someone in real life? Check out our upcoming Merge events below.
