Features

Everything you need
to connect at events.

One app. Every event. The people you'd actually want to meet.

๐Ÿ—บ

Find events near you

Browse curated events in Melbourne. Startup meetups, creative workshops, fitness classes, social nights โ€” every event in one place.

๐Ÿ‘ค

Your profile, your vibe

Create a profile that shows who you really are โ€” your interests, what you're looking for, and the experiences you've had.

๐Ÿ’ž

AI-powered matching

Before you walk in, Dolra shows you who else is going that you'd actually click with. Based on who you are, not just location.

๐Ÿ’ฌ

Group chat before the event

Break the ice before the event starts. Say hi, make plans to meet up, ask who's coming. Real conversation, not just likes.

๐ŸŽŸ

Tickets & RSVPs

Buy tickets and manage your event plans all in one place. Your entire social life โ€” one app.

๐Ÿค

Post-event connection

The relationship doesn't end when the event does. Keep connecting with the people you met and build something real.

AI matching

Know who you're
meeting before
you arrive.

Dolra's matching engine looks at your interests, personality, and goals to connect you with the right people at each event. You'll see who you're matched with, why, and be able to chat before the event starts.

๐Ÿ’› Friendship

โ€œI moved to Melbourne six months ago and knew nobody. I RSVPd to a startup event on Dolra, matched with three people beforehand, and walked in like I already had friends there. It genuinely changed my experience of the city.โ€

โ€œMet my co-founder at a Dolra networking event. We were matched before the event started, had already chatted in the group chat, and when we finally met in person it felt like we'd known each other for months.โ€

โ€œThe matching before the event is the thing I didn't know I needed. I used to walk in alone and leave without talking to anyone. Now I arrive with plans already made.โ€
