Over the rainbow: LGBTIQA+ Dating Over the age of 40

OVER THE RAINBOW

LGBTIQA+ Dating Events for Over 40's in Victoria

WEBSITE

(And no, this is not a speed dating event - all of our activities are group-based, optional, fun and much less pressure than speed dating!)

SUMMARY 

Melbourne Comedians Nelly Thomas and Dean Arcuri are launching a series of 'Dating and Connection' events for LGBTIQA+ folks over the age of 40. Both Nelly and Dean were thrown back into dating in their forties and they will help you navigate this exciting - but sometimes daunting - journey in all it’s glorious forms.

Dating with the help of two Fairy Godmothers!
 

WHY

• We are sick of apps.

• We want real connection & conversation.

• We're too bloody “vintage” for loud venues, mind-games, swiping and all that other shit!

• Old Fashioned Romance is not mandatory but it sure is encouraged. 

• Effort is hot.

• Ghosting and being a doofus are discouraged.

• Good, clear communication and boundaries are encouraged.

It’s never too late to find love.

WHO IS OVER THE RAINBOW FOR?

• Everyone under the LGBTIQA+ rainbow is welcome as long as you are over the age of 40.

• All genders will be adored!

• All sexualities will be loved!

• If you're shy, Nelly and Dean will lend a hand.

• If you came out later in life, we welcome you into the community.

• Rural and Regional folks encouraged to attend: farmer wants a husband! Milkmaid wants a wife!

Our focus will be on FUN (events)

FREE AGREEMENT(between all)

&

FEELING comfortable (in the community)

There will be some structured activities and dates, but nothing will be forced. There will be 'chillout' and 'quiet' spaces available. Consent and Respect - of all kinds - will be paramount. Come together in a relaxed and safe space with people your own age where you might meet a date, a friend or someone you'd like to introduce to a friend.
