Our Venues

The Caboolture Sports Club, located on Station Road, is a modern marvel that sets the perfect stage for our speed dating events. Originally built in the 1960s as a small community center, it has since transformed into a sleek, multifaceted entertainment complex under the ownership of the Moreton Bay Regional Council. This evolution has created a unique speed dating atmosphere, blending local history with contemporary flair. The club’s spacious layout allows for comfortable, private conversations, while the state-of-the-art lighting system creates an intimate ambiance perfect for making connections. The venue’s multiple bar areas ensure quick service, keeping the energy high throughout the night. For a taste of local flavor, order the ‘Caboolture Sunset’ cocktail – a fruity concoction that’s sure to break the ice. Speed dating at the Sports Club is a lively affair, with the venue’s bustling energy adding an extra spark to each mini-date. To make the most of your experience, arrive early to familiarize yourself with the layout and chat with fellow singles before the formal dating begins.

The Caboolture Hub is a hidden gem that adds a touch of sophistication to our speed dating events. This venue, originally a public library built in the 1980s, was repurposed in 2011 by local entrepreneur Sarah Thompson into a chic bar and event space. The Hub’s literary past infuses the speed dating experience with an intellectual charm, perfect for stimulating conversations. The venue boasts floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, creating cozy nooks for intimate chats, while the central bar area, crafted from reclaimed timber, serves as a natural gathering point between dates. The Hub’s signature ‘Bookworm’s Bliss’ mocktail, a refreshing blend of berries and mint, is a great conversation starter. Speed dating at The Hub has a relaxed, cultured vibe that encourages deeper connections. To maximize your experience, browse the bookshelves before the event starts – you might find the perfect icebreaker topic hidden among the tomes.

The Caboolture RSL, situated on Hasking Street, offers a unique blend of history and modernity for our speed dating events. Established in 1945 to support returning servicemen, the RSL was recently renovated by current owner, veteran James O’Brien, transforming it into a stylish venue while preserving its rich heritage. This fusion creates a speed dating atmosphere that’s both respectful of the past and exciting for the future. The RSL’s spacious function room features displays of military memorabilia, providing fascinating conversation starters for history buffs. The venue’s state-of-the-art sound system ensures clear communication during mini-dates, while the outdoor terrace offers a breath of fresh air during breaks. Try the ‘Anzac Spirit’ cocktail, a smooth whiskey-based drink that pays homage to the venue’s roots. Speed dating at the RSL is a unique experience, combining patriotic pride with romantic possibility. To get the most out of your night, arrive early to explore the historical displays – they’re sure to spark interesting discussions with your dates.

You’ll have 12 five-minute mini-dates, typically running from 7 pm to 9 pm, with a midway intermission featuring ice-breaker games and conversation cards to keep the dialogue flowing. 

Using the app, you’ll discreetly select ‘Match’ or ‘Friend’ for each person you meet, with mutual matches revealed at 8 am the next day. With 40 attendees (20 men and 20 women), you’re guaranteed equal ratios and plenty of potential connections.

Dress to impress without going overboard – smart casual is the way to go. For ladies, a stylish blouse paired with jeans or a cute dress works wonders. Gents, opt for a collared shirt and nice trousers. Looking for the perfect outfit? Head to Forever New at Caboolture Park Shopping Centre on Hasking Street. They’ve got a great selection of trendy yet comfortable clothes that’ll make you feel confident and ready to mingle. Remember, the key is to feel like your best self – when you’re comfortable in your clothes, your personality shines through!

The best conversations flow naturally, but it’s always good to have a few aces up your sleeve. In Caboolture, you can’t go wrong chatting about the Abbey Museum of Art and Archaeology. Ask your date if they’ve ever been to one of the medieval festivals – it’s a great way to gauge their interest in history and culture. If they haven’t, suggest it as a potential second date idea! Other safe bets include hobbies, favorite local spots, and travel experiences. Pro tip: listen actively and ask follow-up questions. It shows you’re genuinely interested and can lead to discovering unexpected commonalities.

Rainbow Connection, located on King Street, is Caboolture’s go-to venue for LGBTQIA+ speed dating events. This queer-owned bar, established in 2018 by local drag queen Donna Kebab, boasts a vibrant atmosphere that perfectly complements our inclusive events. The bar’s standout features include a glittering disco ball dance floor and a wall of fame showcasing local LGBTQIA+ icons, both of which create fantastic conversation starters during speed dating breaks. These events cater to the full spectrum of the community, welcoming gay, lesbian, bisexual, trans, non-binary, and genderqueer individuals. The inclusive vibe at Rainbow Connection makes everyone feel at home, fostering genuine connections in a safe, accepting space.

Our fitness-focused speed dating events are perfect for meeting like-minded health enthusiasts. During these events, try bringing up Anytime Fitness on Morayfield Road. It’s a popular 24/7 gym that many locals frequent. Mentioning your favorite classes or workout routines can quickly lead to shared interests. You might even find yourself setting up a gym date for your next meeting! Remember, mutual interests in health and fitness can be a strong foundation for a relationship, as they often indicate shared values and lifestyle choices.

Animal lovers, rejoice! Many of our speed dating events are held at The Fur & Feather, a pet-friendly bar on Beerburrum Road. To suss out your date’s animal affinity, try asking if they have any pets or about their favorite animals. If you hit it off with a fellow pet parent, why not suggest a second date at Centenary Lakes Dog Park? Picture this: you, your date, and your furry friends enjoying a sunny afternoon together. The laid-back atmosphere of the park creates the perfect setting for getting to know each other better while your pups play. It’s a win-win situation that combines the joy of pet ownership with the excitement of a budding romance.

First impressions count, so why not treat yourself to a confidence boost? Visit Locks & Lashes on George Street for a pre-event pampering session. For ladies, a blow-out can add that extra bounce to your step, while gents might opt for a sharp haircut and style. If you’re feeling adventurous, consider asking for subtle highlights to make your eyes pop – it could be the conversation starter that leads to a love connection! Remember, the most attractive quality is confidence, so choose a look that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

Caboolture is brimming with hobby groups and activities that can spark connections. During speed dating, try mentioning the Caboolture Community Garden Club. It’s a fantastic way to gauge if your date shares your interest in sustainability and nature. If you find a fellow green thumb, why not suggest a second date tending to the community plots together? It’s a unique, hands-on activity that allows for plenty of conversation and collaboration. Plus, there’s something undeniably romantic about nurturing plants side by side – it could be the perfect metaphor for your budding relationship!

Our events typically host around 40 attendees, with an even split between men and women. You’ll meet singles not just from Caboolture, but also from neighboring Morayfield and Burpengary. This diverse mix increases your chances of finding compatible matches within a comfortable radius. The inclusion of these surrounding suburbs adds variety to the dating pool, potentially introducing you to someone with a slightly different perspective or lifestyle that complements your own. It’s this blend of local familiarity and fresh faces that makes our events so exciting and full of potential!

Our Asian speed dating events are typically held at the Golden Dragon Restaurant on Beerburrum Road, a local favorite known for its authentic cuisine and welcoming atmosphere. We recommend trying their signature Peking Duck pancakes – they’re a delicious ice-breaker! The experience here is more intimate and culturally tailored compared to apps like EastMeetEast. You’ll find the face-to-face interaction allows for a more nuanced appreciation of shared cultural backgrounds and values, something that’s often lost in the world of online dating.

Christian speed dating nights in Caboolture often take place at the Cornerstone Café, adjacent to the local Hillsong Church. These events offer a more faith-focused approach to dating compared to apps like Christian Mingle. Conversations often revolve around personal faith journeys, favorite Bible passages, and involvement in church activities. It’s common for attendees to discuss their experiences at Hillsong Caboolture and potentially plan to attend a service together. This shared spiritual foundation can be a powerful starting point for a meaningful relationship.

For the over 40 crowd, we frequently host events at The Vintage Lounge on King Street. This sophisticated venue perfectly suits the mature dating scene. Singles in this age group are often looking for genuine connections, shared life experiences, and compatibility in terms of lifestyle and future goals. Beyond our events, the “Caboolture 40+ Social Club” on Meetup.com is another great resource for meeting like-minded individuals. However, many find that the focused nature of our speed dating events leads to more meaningful connections compared to larger social gatherings.

Our over 50s events are often held at The Silver Lining Bar on Station Road, a classy establishment that caters perfectly to mature daters. The relaxed, elegant atmosphere helps attendees feel at ease, facilitating genuine conversations. Over 50s singles are typically seeking companionship, shared interests, and someone to enjoy life’s adventures with. While apps like OurTime offer digital connections, our events provide the irreplaceable value of face-to-face chemistry. Many attendees find this direct interaction far more rewarding and effective in finding a compatible partner.

For a memorable date night, we highly recommend the Caboolture Drive-In Theatre. This nostalgic venue offers a unique blend of retro charm and modern romance. Pack some cozy blankets, grab some popcorn from the snack bar, and snuggle up under the stars for a movie. To make the most of it, arrive early to secure a good spot and tune your radio to the right frequency. The shared experience of watching a film together in this intimate setting can spark great conversations and create lasting memories. It’s the perfect way to continue the connection you’ve made at one of our speed dating events!
