Success Stories π

Many have already found loveΒ β€οΈ

βWhen 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 β and thatβs not even counting the sleazeballs.
β a happy attendeeβ

“I would like to let you know that last month,

βI just wanted to let you know…
So thank you for all the effort in putting these events togetherβ¦ donβt 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
Ready to meet Brisbane’s most interesting singles face-to-face? Join us for an evening of genuine connections at The Fourth Monkey Cocktail Bar & Grill, where we’re bringing together accomplished professionals aged 30-55 who know there’s more to life than endless dating app scrolling. Being single in Brisbane can feel like trying to find parking at South Bank during a festival – unnecessarily complicated – but we’re here to change that! Located in the heart of South Brisbane at 58 Mollison Street, we’re perfectly positioned just minutes from South Brisbane station and multiple bus routes including the 196 and 198. Rock up in smart casual that shows your personality – think South Bank dining meets gallery opening vibes. Pop into the boutiques at West Village or browse through James Street for that perfect outfit that says “successful professional with a fun side.” Whether you’re coming from the trendy streets of West End or the riverside charm of Kangaroo Point, you’ll find yourself among Brisbane’s most engaging professionals.
How It Works
Your evening kicks off with our streamlined check-in process, where you’ll receive your name card and access to our sophisticated Matching App 4.0 (because who uses paper in 2024?). Ladies get comfortable at their designated spots while gentlemen rotate every five minutes – just enough time to determine if there’s a spark without getting trapped in a detailed analysis of Brisbane’s property market. From 7-9pm, you’ll enjoy 12 five-minute dates, with our carefully curated ice breakers ensuring conversation flows as smoothly as a Bellissimo coffee. At 8pm, we break for drinks and mingling, perfect for revisiting those promising connections or building up courage for round two. Our conversation cards keep things engaging and authentic – way more rewarding than trying to decipher whether that dating profile photo is current or from 2019. With exactly 20 men and 20 women attending, we maintain perfect balance, like a well-crafted espresso martini.
Who You’ll Meet
Our events attract Brisbane’s most interesting professionals – the kind who have strong opinions about where to find the best breakfast and know all the hidden gems between GOMA and Eagle Street. You’ll meet creative entrepreneurs from the Gabba precinct, professionals from the nearby hospitals and university, and accomplished individuals who’ve found their sweet spot between career and lifestyle. Many are at that sweet spot in life where they’re established in their careers and ready to find someone special to share their favorite local spots with. Dating in Brisbane at this age can feel like navigating the Riverside Expressway during peak hour – tricky but manageable with the right approach. Success at our events often comes down to authenticity – share your genuine thoughts on whether Julius Pizzeria is worth the queue, or debate the best spots for river views. For a memorable second date, we suggest a stroll through GOMA or drinks at Maker – both guaranteed conversation starters.
Your Host
Since our founding by Darcy Todd in 2020, Speed Dating Social has successfully introduced 37,423 singles across 787 events, maintaining our commitment to equal gender ratios as meticulously as a Bunker Coffee barista. Grab your early bird ticket at $29.90, or snag a last-release spot for $34.90 (no refunds, but you can transfer your ticket to a friend). Questions? Drop us a line at matches@speeddatingsocial.com – we reply faster than your UberEats order from Tai Tai.
The Venue
The Fourth Monkey isn’t just another Brisbane venue; it’s a South Brisbane gem that perfectly captures the cultural precinct’s blend of sophistication and riverside charm. The venue’s stylish interior, with its modern dΓ©cor and ambient lighting, creates an atmosphere that’s both impressive and welcoming. Their mixologists craft some of Brisbane’s most creative cocktails – we recommend starting your evening with their signature “Brisbane Sunset” to calm those first-date butterflies. The thoughtful layout creates natural conversation spaces while maintaining an energetic atmosphere that’s perfect for our speed dating format. Before or after the event, take a wander through the South Bank cultural precinct – maybe catch an exhibition at QAGOMA or explore the vibrant Little Stanley Street dining scene. These quintessentially Brisbane experiences make for perfect ice breakers and even better second date ideas.
