Under 35 Singles Events — Real Energy, Real Connection
Gen Z and Millennials have been the guinea pigs for every dating app ever built — and most of them are over it. The profiles, the matches that go nowhere, the conversations that fizzle before you’ve even met. There’s a better way, and it’s embarrassingly simple: just be in the same room as someone.
Merge Dating’s under 35 events do exactly that. Great venues — the kind you’d choose anyway — filled with single 20 and 30-somethings who are genuinely there to meet someone. Easy icebreakers from our hosts to get things started, then the evening flows naturally.
No speed dating, no name tags, no awkward questionnaires. New events every week across Sydney, Brisbane, and beyond.
No Apps. Just Vibes.
Every person in the room is single, in their 20s or early 30s, and actually trying.
Great Venues
We pick places you'd actually want to go — lively, stylish, the right energy for a night out.
New Events Every Week
Regular events across multiple locations — always something coming up near you.
Why Choose Merge for Under 35 Singles Events?
- The Antidote to App Fatigue You've tried the apps. Everyone has. They have their place — but you already know there's something missing when you meet people through a screen. Merge puts you in a room with real, single people and lets the rest happen naturally.
- Good Energy, Great Venues We don't do cringe. The venues are legit, the atmosphere is relaxed, and the crowd is genuinely there to have a good time. Our hosts keep things easy and natural — no awkward rounds, no buzzers, no pressure.
- Safe, Real, Good Vibes Everyone in the room is a single who's shown up on purpose. Our hosts set a welcoming tone and maintain it all night. Just come, grab a drink, and see what happens.

Generally 18–35, but we allow a buffer — if you're 36 or 37 and feel this is the right group, come along.
Is this speed dating?
Definitely not. No timers, no rotating tables. A normal social evening at a great venue — just everyone happens to be single.
Do I need to come with someone?
Not at all. Most people come solo and that's the whole point.
