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
Are you ready to swipe right on real-life connections? Forget endlessly scrolling through dating apps – it’s time to dive into the world of speed dating in Brisbane! Our 29-47 speed dating event at Bar Gusto 601 Gregory Terrace, Bowen Hills is the perfect way to meet your match without the dreaded screen fatigue. Being single in Brissy can feel like navigating the winding Brisbane River – full of twists and turns, but with plenty of hidden gems along the way.
Lucky for you, Bar Gusto is easy to reach – just hop on the 196 bus or take a short stroll from Bowen Hills station. Not sure what to wear? Channel your inner Queenslander with a breezy cocktail dress or smart casual outfit from the trendy boutiques in nearby Fortitude Valley. And hey, whether you’re coming from New Farm or Newstead, you’ll fit right in with our diverse crowd of Brisbane singles ready to mingle.
How It Works
Now, let’s break down the night’s itinerary faster than you can say “G’day, mate!” When you arrive, you’ll receive a name card and access to our state-of-the-art Matching App 4.0. Ladies, you’ll be seated at your own mini-date stations, while the gents will rotate every five minutes – it’s like musical chairs, but way more romantic! From 7-9pm, you’ll enjoy 12 five-minute dates, with a cheeky intermission at 8pm to catch your breath and maybe grab a XXXX Gold (or something fancier if you’re feeling schmancy).
We’ve got conversation cards to keep the banter flowing smoother than the Brisbane River on a calm day. And the best part? No more awkward “So… should we exchange numbers?” moments. If there’s mutual interest, you’ll get your match’s contact details at 8am the next morning – giving you plenty of time to craft that perfect follow-up text. With 40 attendees (20 men, 20 women) all on equal footing, it’s a far cry from the hit-or-miss world of dating apps. Who knows? Your perfect match might be just five minutes away!
Who You’ll Meet
So, who are these mystery singles you’ll be meeting? Picture a mix of young professionals and established career-minded individuals, all navigating the tricky waters of dating in their late 20s to 40s. They’re the kind of people you might bump into at the Eat Street Markets or cheering on the Broncos at Suncorp Stadium. Many are juggling busy careers with the desire to find that special someone – a balancing act as tricky as walking across the Story Bridge after a few too many at Howard Smith Wharves.
The Brisbane dating scene can be as unpredictable as the city’s weather, with challenges ranging from limited time for socializing to the dreaded “Brisbane bubble” where everyone seems to know everyone. But fear not! Our speed dating events are the perfect way to burst that bubble and expand your dating pool faster than you can say “bin chicken.” Pro tip: come armed with your best chat-up lines about the controversial “Brisbane” sign (love it or hate it?) and be ready to suggest a second date at the iconic Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary – nothing says romance like cuddling a koala, right?
Your Host
Now, a bit about us – Speed Dating Social was founded by local love guru Darcy Todd back in 2020 (talk about perfect timing, eh?). Since then, we’ve hosted a whopping 787 events and introduced 37,423 singles – that’s more connections than there are jacaranda trees in New Farm Park! We’re committed to keeping things fair dinkum with our equal ratio booking policy, ensuring a balanced playing field for all.
Tickets are a steal at $29.90 for early birds, or $34.90 for last-minute decision makers (no refunds, so commit like you’re ordering a meat pie at the Gabba!). Got questions? Flick us an email at matches@speeddatingsocial.com – we’re friendlier than a Sunshine Coast lifeguard on a perfect beach day.
The Venue
As for the venue, Bar Gusto is the crème de la crème of Brisbane’s dating scene. This swanky spot, nestled in the heart of Bowen Hills, has been playing Cupid since 2018. With its moody lighting and eclectic decor that screams “hipster chic meets tropical paradise,” it’s the perfect backdrop for your potential love story. The owners, local couple Mick and Sarah, have crafted a space that’s more inviting than a dip in Streets Beach on a scorching summer day. Their signature cocktail, the “Brisbane Fling,” is a tantalizing mix of local gin, passionfruit, and a hint of ginger – perfect for calming those first-date jitters.
Speed dating at Bar Gusto feels like you’re starring in your own rom-com, with the added bonus of the venue’s unique “conversation nooks” that make each mini-date feel intimate and special. And if things go well, why not suggest a second date at the nearby Brisbane Powerhouse? Nothing says “spark” quite like an art exhibition followed by a riverside stroll. So, what are you waiting for, Brisbane singles? It’s time to trade in your dating app fatigue for some real-life chemistry. Who knows? Your perfect match might be just a “Brisbane Fling” away!
