After years of swiping, ghosting, and awkward small talk online, many singles are looking for a more genuine way to connect. That chemistry you can only feel in person. A real laugh. A conversation that flows naturally.

If that sounds like you, WYM Café & Bar has something special coming up. Get ready for a flirty little afternoon with people who prefer eye contact over profile pics. No bots, no catfishing, no algorithms. Just good drinks, great company, and the kind of spark you can’t fake with a filter.

Speed Dating @ WYM located in the Geelong Botanic Gardens is happening on the first Sunday of every month through Summer.

This new Geelong dating event offers a relaxed and friendly way to meet new people in one of the city’s most beautiful locations. Surrounded by greenery and the sounds of nature, guests can skip the screens and enjoy real, face-to-face conversations.

When you arrive, our host Lily will greet you and explain how everything works. Each ticket includes a complimentary drink from the café menu, so you can grab your beverage, mingle, and settle in before the rounds begin.

How the Speed Dating Works

Each mini-date lasts five minutes. The ladies will be seated at numbered tables while the gentlemen rotate when the bell rings. After each chat, guests mark their Match Card with Date, Coffee, or No Thanks.

The format is quick, fun, and easygoing. It is perfect for anyone who wants to meet people without pressure. You are not expected to find “the one” in five minutes. You are simply getting to know someone and seeing if there is a spark.

Halfway through, there will be a short break so everyone can stretch, top up their drink, and chat casually. After the rounds, the café stays open for relaxed mingling, giving you the chance to keep conversations going or meet anyone you may have missed.

After the Event

At the end of the afternoon, our team will collect Match Cards and share contact details only between mutual matches, with everyone’s consent. That way, you will only hear from people who felt the same connection you did.
