These double-date suggestions go way beyond seeing a boring movie or eating out at a cheap restaurant. If you want to spend your time well, check these ideas out!

1. Hit up a sporting event

We can’t deny that the more people at a sporting event, the better. Gather up your love-bird mates and enjoy a good game of cricket, soccer or rugby. Pack yourselves a picknick lunch and enjoy the crazy stadium energy.

2. Game Duels

This couple v. couple date can be played out over a monopoly board or any kind of competitive game. Put your phones away and put your brains together and compete against your friends. The winning couple chooses dinner, losing couple cooks it!

3. Sight-see your own city

No matter how familiar you might be with your hometown, there is always time to see it again with fresh eyes! Check out Madame Toueswards in Sydney, hit up St Kilda in Melbourne or revisit Rottnest Island in Perth! No matter where in Australia you live, there will always be something to make your double date worth-while!

4. Food Crawl

Choose a part of your city that has a heap of cheap little restaurants, and split appetisers, entrees and desserts along the way! Kind of like a pub crawl…but better!

5. Hit up an amusement park 

There is nothing quite like an amusement park to break up the mundane routine of movie dates. This is the perfect place to let loose and discover your inner adrenaline junkie alongside your, boo, best mate and their date too!

6. Picnic with live music

Most cities in Australia have a blasting music scene, so grab some food and relax on the grass and listen to free, live music. Trust me, this activity is perfect because it can even be a bit romantic!

7. Arcade Spree

Discover the hidden world inside your local mall and challenge the other couple to a gaming spree! Hit up the PacMan, Space Invaders and Mario Kart! Add up and compare points at the end; losers buy lunch!

8. Go to a concert

If you have similar tastes in music, this is the perfect option! Carpool to a concert and run wild in the mosh! Check out our article that will keep you in the loop for the hottest names coming to Aus in 2019!

9. Have an at-home cooking session

This can be a super fun alternative to trying to have a conversation in a crowded restaurant on a Tuesday night. Choose a three-course recipe with your power-couple friends and cook up a storm!

10. Team up for trivia night!

Go to your local bar or RSL and team up with your friends to win bragging rights over trivia night!

11. Chill night in

There is nothing wrong with a super chillaxed night in. Make a relaxing playlist, order take-out and binge-watch a TV show or Netflix series; this can often be the perfect recipe to a double-date that is remembered.
