Success Stories πŸ’‘

Many have already found love ❀️

β€œWhen I went to my first speed dating event, I had zero expectations

– less than zero actually.
But yup, when I walked into that bar, I saw him and went all nervous.
I wouldn’t say our first conversation was scintillating. I don’t even remember what small talk we made – maybe our jobs.
At the end of the event, I saw him sitting alone and asked whether I could sit next to him. He said he wanted to see me again and I said the same.
We are now happily and exclusively together. If I have any advice to give anyone, it would be to give speed dating a try. I was lucky to have found my person the first time around. But I had been online dating for a year with no success.

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 attended one of your speed dating nights in Hardware Lane and met the most beautiful girl. We connected and you sent our numbers to us.
We met up again the next day and have been on many dates and have spoken every day, for hours It’s been 6 weeks + and going strong.
Just wanted to let you know of one of your success stories. The future looks bright.
We recommend your speed dating nights to every single person we speak to. It was so much fun. Thank you.”

β€œI just wanted to let you know…

That I won’t been attending your next event. I had already purchased the ticket earlier… I attended the last event and had a wonderful time… after I worked up the courage to actually walk in…
I was so nervous and almost didn’t go in but I am really glad I did I have made a connection with a great guy and am looking forward to pursuing that and seeing how we go.

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

Looking for love in Brisbane’s vibrant South Bank area? Get ready for an unforgettable night of connections at our “Millennial Mingle” speed dating event! This 29-47 year old singles extravaganza is perfect for young professionals and established adults alike, all searching for that special someone in the heart of the city. Being single in Brissy can be both exciting and challenging – with endless coffee shops along the river for first dates, but also the struggle of meeting new people outside your usual circles.Β 

That’s where we come in! Join us at The Fourth Monkey Cocktail Bar, a trendy hotspot at 58 Mollison St, South Brisbane. Easily accessible by public transport, just hop on the 196 bus to the South Bank busway station. Not sure what to wear? Keep it classy yet casual – Myer at Westfield Garden City has great options to help you look your best. You’ll be meeting singles not just from South Brisbane, but also neighboring West End and Kangaroo Point, so get ready to expand your dating pool!

How It Works

Here’s how our speed dating social works: Upon arrival, you’ll receive a name card and scan a QR code to access our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0. This lets you see all attendees and keeps track of your connections throughout the night. Start by mingling at the bar, then ladies take their seats as our hosts rotate the gents every 5 minutes. You’ll enjoy 12 mini-dates in total, running from 7-9pm.Β 

Use our fun ice breaker games and conversation cards if you need a little help breaking the ice! Simply tap ‘Match’ or ‘Friend’ on your phone for each person you meet, and you’ll receive your mutual matches’ contact details at 8am the next day. With 40 attendees (20 men and 20 women), you’re guaranteed equal ratios and plenty of potential connections. It’s a far more personal experience than swiping endlessly on Tinder or crafting the perfect OkCupid profile!

Who You’ll Meet

Our “Millennial Mingle” crowd is a diverse mix of ambitious professionals, creative types, and those embracing their second act after divorce or career changes. Many are juggling demanding jobs with a desire for meaningful relationships, and they’ve tried everything from dating apps to setups by well-meaning friends. The challenge? Finding someone who shares their values and life goals in a city that can sometimes feel too small or too spread out.Β 

That’s why our events are so popular – they cut through the noise and get right to the heart of connection. Top tip: Be open-minded and ask unique questions to really stand out! And if you hit it off, why not suggest a second date at the nearby Streets Beach? Nothing beats a romantic stroll along South Bank Parklands under the stars.

The Venue

The Fourth Monkey Cocktail Bar is the ideal backdrop for our Brisbane speed dating adventures. This industrial-chic space, housed in a converted 1920s wool store, oozes character with its exposed brick walls and vintage fixtures. Current owner Sarah Chen has created an atmosphere that’s both elegant and approachable – perfect for putting first-date jitters at ease.Β 

The bar’s signature indoor greenery creates natural conversation nooks, while the craft cocktail menu gives you plenty to discuss as you sip and mingle. Speaking of which, don’t miss their famous “Banana Old Fashioned” – it’s a great ice breaker to order for your mini-date! The Fourth Monkey’s layout is ideal for speed dating, with just the right mix of intimacy and space to keep the conversation flowing. Pro tip: Arrive a few minutes early to soak in the ambiance and calm any pre-event nerves with a refreshing drink at the bar.
