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

Are you ready to dive into the exciting world of speed dating for the 30-55 crowd? Welcome to the “Prime Time Players” event at Hey Chica!, where Brisbane’s vibrant singles scene comes alive. Being single in Fortitude Valley can be a whirlwind of excitement and opportunity, with its bustling nightlife and eclectic mix of bars and restaurants. Hey Chica!, located at T11-14/315 Brunswick St, Fortitude Valley QLD 4006, is the perfect backdrop for our speed dating extravaganza.Β 

Hop on the 196 bus or take a short walk from Fortitude Valley station, and you’ll find yourself in the heart of the action. For the perfect outfit to make a stellar first impression, swing by Myer in nearby Newstead – you’ll be turning heads in no time. And don’t worry, you’ll be meeting singles from neighboring New Farm and Bowen Hills too, so get ready to expand your dating horizons. As an attendee, you’ll experience the thrill of multiple mini-dates in one night, all while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of one of Brisbane’s hottest spots.

How It Works

When you arrive at Hey Chica!, you’ll be greeted by our friendly hosts who’ll get you set up with your name tag and our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0. This nifty little tool lets you see a list of all attendees right on your phone – talk about a sneak peek! After some pre-event mingling at the bar, ladies will take their seats while the gents rotate every 5 minutes. It’s like musical chairs, but with the potential for love! You’ll have 12 five-minute mini-dates from 7 to 9 pm, giving you plenty of time to spark a connection.Β 

Don’t stress if you’re feeling tongue-tied – we’ve got ice breaker games and conversation cards to keep the chat flowing. With 40 attendees (20 guys and 20 ladies), you’re guaranteed an equal ratio, unlike those hit-or-miss dating apps. Speaking of which, many attendees find our events far more engaging and genuine than swiping endlessly on Tinder or scrolling through Match.com profiles. There’s just something special about face-to-face interaction that a dating website can’t replicate.

Who You’ll Meet

The Prime Time Players crowd is a diverse bunch of professionals, creatives, and entrepreneurs who’ve been around the block a few times. They’re at a stage in life where they know what they want – no more games or situationships, thank you very much! Many have tried everything from blind dates to dating apps, but they’re looking for something more authentic. These singles are often juggling career success with the desire for a meaningful relationship, and they’re not afraid to put themselves out there.Β 

Some might be dipping their toes back into the dating pool after a divorce, while others are simply ready to find their perfect match. To make the most of your speed dating experience, be yourself, ask engaging questions, and don’t be afraid to show your quirky side. And if you hit it off with someone, why not suggest a second date at the nearby Brisbane Powerhouse? It’s the perfect spot for a romantic stroll and some culture to boot.

The Venue

Hey Chica! isn’t just any bar – it’s a Latin-inspired fiesta that’ll have you feeling the heat in no time. This vibrant venue, opened in 2019, was previously a historic warehouse before being transformed into the colorful hotspot it is today. Owned by the Drunken Monkey Group, Hey Chica! brings a unique energy to our speed dating events. The eclectic decor, featuring neon signs and lush greenery, creates the perfect backdrop for romantic connections.Β 

The outdoor terrace is ideal for those who need a breather between dates, while the central bar keeps the conversation (and drinks) flowing. Speaking of drinks, why not impress your date by ordering their signature “Spicy Senorita” cocktail? The lively atmosphere at Hey Chica! adds an extra spark to the speed dating experience, making it easier to break the ice and let your personality shine. Pro tip: Arrive a little early to soak in the ambiance and calm any pre-event jitters – it’ll set you up for speed dating success!
