Success Stories 💑
Many have already found love ❤️
“When I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations
You may not find someone the first time or the 10th time, but at least these guys take the trouble to show up and put their best foot forward. They are making the effort which is more than I can say for some people on online dating sites – and that’s not even counting the sleazeballs.
– a happy attendee”
“I would like to let you know that last month,
“I just wanted to let you know…
So thank you for all the effort in putting these events together… don’t worry about giving me a refund on the ticket, maybe you can give that to someone that rocks up on the night without a ticket as I know how hard They are to get. thanks so much again.”

Event Details
Tired of swiping endlessly through dating apps only to find yourself caught in an eternal loop of “hey” messages? Welcome to Speed Dating Social at Newstead Social, where real connections happen faster than you can say “left swipe.” Located in the heart of Brisbane’s trendiest precinct at 2 Masters St, Newstead QLD 4006, we’re bringing together Brisbane’s finest singles aged 30-55 for an evening of genuine connections. Just hop on the 199 bus or catch the CityCat to Teneriffe Ferry Terminal – we’re a breezy five-minute walk away. And if you’re stressing about what to wear, the nearby James Street fashion strip has got you covered, from casual chic at Sass & Bide to smart casual at Country Road. Whether you’re coming from the leafy streets of New Farm or the bustling hub of Teneriffe, you’ll find yourself in good company with other local professionals looking for love.
How It Works
Get ready for a perfectly orchestrated evening of meaningful mini-dates that’ll make your dating app experiences feel like ancient history. Armed with your name card and our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0, you’ll embark on twelve five-minute dates between 7-9pm. Ladies, you’ll be comfortably seated while gents rotate – no awkward musical chairs here! We kick things off with ice breakers that actually break the ice (unlike that painful “how’s your weekend?” app chat), and at 8pm, you’ll enjoy a refreshing intermission to catch your breath and maybe catch someone’s eye across the room. Our conversation cards keep the chat flowing smoother than a perfectly pulled flat white, and the best part? No more endless messaging – if there’s mutual interest, you’ll wake up to your matches’ contact details at 8am the next morning. With 20 men and 20 women carefully selected to ensure equal ratios, you’re guaranteed a full dance card of potential connections.
Who You’ll Meet
Our crowd? Think successful professionals who’ve mastered their careers but are looking to master the art of love. These are people who know their Shiraz from their Syrah and can navigate both a boardroom and a beer garden with equal finesse. They’re at that sweet spot in life where Netflix and chill sounds great, but they’re ready for something more meaningful. Living in Brisbane’s inner ring means they’re spoiled for choice with fantastic venues but short on time to meet the right person. That’s where we come in! Pro tip: brush up on your knowledge of the Howard Smith Wharves’ latest openings – it makes for perfect conversation fodder and could be your ticket to a stellar second date. Remember, confidence is key, but authenticity is your secret weapon – these folks can spot a rehearsed line from a kilometer away.
Your Host
Since our founder Darcy Todd launched Speed Dating Social in 2020, we’ve hosted 787 events and introduced 37,423 singles (and counting!). Our secret sauce? A strict equal ratio booking policy that ensures a balanced mix of potential matches. Early birds catch both the worm and our best price at $29.90, while last-minute decision-makers can still join the fun for $34.90 (though we can’t offer refunds – cupid’s arrows are non-returnable!). Got questions? Our love experts are standing by at matches@speeddatingsocial.com.
The Venue
Newstead Social isn’t just another Brisbane venue – it’s a local institution housed in a beautifully restored wool store that’s seen more successful matches than a tennis tournament. The exposed brick walls and vintage architectural features create an atmosphere that’s equal parts sophisticated and relaxed, perfect for those first-impression butterflies. Their signature espresso martini packs enough punch to calm those nerves without compromising your wit, and the intimate lighting makes everyone look their best (though your personality will shine brighter). The venue’s prime location next to the historic Gasworks Plaza offers a perfect conversation starter – suggest a follow-up date exploring the plaza’s weekend markets or enjoying a sunset picnic in the beautifully restored gasometer. After all, nothing says “romantic potential” quite like discovering Brisbane’s heritage together.
