This year, Encounter Dating is hosting an exciting mixer for singles aged 35-55. On arrival to the bright and colourful cocktail bar, you’ll receive a complimentary glass of champagne.

With ice-breaker games, a live DJ, and canapes to keep you going throughout the night, you’re guaranteed to have a fun time whether you leave alone or with a friend.

Valentine’s Day activities for singles: catch a great movie.

 

Enjoy the big screen

There’s nothing like a bit of ‘me-time’, and what better place to celebrate yourself than in the air-conditioned comfort of a cinema? For true cinephiles, it’s hard to look further than the Hayden Orpheum in Cremorne. First opened in the 1930s, and still with its original design, the beautiful interiors of this building will take your breath away. Or, if a movie under the stars sounds up your alley, the Moonlight Cinema is offering a line-up of stellar flicks. Grab a summer cocktail, and settle down for a classic rom-com. And for those wanting a premium experience, you can even pay to have a personal waiter for the evening.

Immerse yourself in nature

Sydney is known for its stunning coastal walks, so why not set out on an adventure this Valentines Day? An easy 6km, the Bondi to Coogee is probably most well-known for its uninterrupted views of the ocean, as well as stunning views of beaches and cliffs. Cafes along the track offer fresh coffee and pastries to fuel your exercise, and the beach at the end of the track means you can celebrate by cooling off in the open ocean.

 

Valentine’s Day activities for singles: Time for chocolate.

Embrace your inner choco-holic

Satiating your sweet tooth is easy, with so many mouth-watering chocolate cafes all over the city. At the top of our list, though, is Adora Chocolate. Found at the CBD, Newtown, and Parramatta, Adora has an amazing array of treats for you to try. Choose from bite-sized truffles, or take home a chocolate gift basket made entirely from chocolate – the choices are endless! And, their bake at home brownie and cookie kits means you can savour all this chocolate deliciousness over and over. Who says you need a partner to buy chocolates for?
