If you’re single and tired of swiping, you’re not alone. More people are turning to in-real-life singles events in Cardiff as a way to meet others – not just for dating (which can bring a little pressure), but for friendship, conversation, and community feels.
The good news? Cardiff is bursting at the seams with singles looking to enrich their social life, so there are a lot of people out there for you to meet. In fact, according to the Office for National Statistics, approximately 30% of homes are occupied by just one person – no wonder Cardiff is reported to have the highest proportion of single people in Wales. In numbers this is well over 140,000 singles.
The bad news? They’re going to be hard to find unless you put yourself out there and get yourself to an event or two – online dating just doesn’t cut it anymore – it’s in-person interaction that everyone is craving.
Not all singles events in Cardiff are the same - you need to find your vibe
Firstly, there are lots different types of dating related events out there for Cardiff singles, and they’re not all for everyone.
You’ve got your:
- love-them-or-hate-them speed dating events (not our vibe)
- theme, interest or activity-based events
- singles party nights (which can feel a little loud overwhelming)
- age-specific meetups
- and the ones with enough forced fun to make you shrivel up inside yourself
Our events hit different, and they’re exclusively for Cardiff singles aged 35 and over who want to truly embrace single life.
If this is you then read on…
There are over 140,000 adult singles in Cardiff, so plenty of people for you to meet.
You just have to find them!

What are our singles events like in Cardiff?
We’re done with people telling us how difficult it is to meet single people in Cardiff. The hours wasted scrolling through Tinder, the time wasters, the ghosting, and the genuine fear of singles putting themselves in a room full of other singles.
That ends here.
Like with any event, whether that be a concert, networking, or family get together, you get out what you put in. We make it so easy for you to get the most out of your experience with us by creating an environment that feels safe, friendly, and approachable.
Here’s what to expect from our social events:
- the most relaxed style of dating in Cardiff
- quality over quantity (we cap numbers at 40)
- a friendly and approachable crowd
- both age-range and mixed-age events
- chat with people at your own pace
- no awkwardness or forced fun
- post-event Connect & Chat service
- our fab hosts are there to welcome you and make introductions
How does that sound?
