Best Places to Meet Someone in Christchurch

This is the golden question, isn’t it?

Back in the day, it was easier. You just went to the Strip, grabbed a drink, and watched the parade of eligible singles pass by. There were singles mingles at the Grumpy Mole and edgier events like the annual Fetish Ball. There was FindSomeone and NZDating.

Today, dating in Christchurch is more dispersed. Dating app fatigue has set in. The cost of living makes going out a few nights a week prohibitive. Companies catering to singles with speed dating events and singles nights have come and gone.
