Speed Mating: All Genders Feeling the urge to build your LGBTQIA+ social circle?
Needing to get out of the house more?
Craving to meet cool new people?
Then Speed Mating at The Laird could be PERFECT for YOU!
After the last few years where 'social isolation' became the new normal, this event aims to bring together all areas of the LGBTQIA+ rainbow and the good news is, all genders are welcome to come together to make some new friends within our greater queer communities.
There will be plenty of informal activities and conversations which will give us all the chance to get to know each other better. And the good news is, this is NOT speed dating, so it wont be awkward, weird or put you on the spot. So if...
- You feel you socially awkward
- Feel shy in social situations
- Consider yourself out of practice with your social skills
- You are new in town and don't know anyone
Your host Morgan Fitzgerald will really pride themselves on helping to make you feel at home during this event. Who is Morgan?
They (non-binary) are a proud member of the LGBTIQA+ community, a public speaker, and a mental health advocate who cares about making a difference. Naturally leaning towards being shy themselves, they know how to ensure you feel safe and supported in any environment.
A nd the venue is just great! The Laird is one of Australia’s longest running gay-owned and operated venues. Formerly known as "Melbourne's only bear and leather bar", it progressed over the years to become a haven, meeting place and party space for same-sex attracted CIS and Trans males.
Arrival Time:
Please arrive by no later than 6:45pm for a 7:00pm start.
