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

Welcome to the world of Melbourne speed dating, where young professionals aged 25-36 (often dubbed “Millennial Minglers”) come together to find love in the bustling heart of the city. Being single in Melbourne can be both exhilarating and overwhelming, with countless trendy bars and hidden laneways perfect for romantic rendezvous. Our next singles event is hosted at the iconic Spice Market on Beaney Lane, a hotspot known for its exotic cocktails and sultry ambiance.Β 

Getting there is a breeze – just hop on the 96 tram and hop off at the Southern Cross Station stop. For this night of potential romance, dress to impress with a chic outfit from Melbournestyle on Little Collins Street. You’ll be mingling with singles from neighboring suburbs like South Yarra and Richmond, creating a diverse mix of Melbourne’s finest.

How It Works

As you arrive at the speed dating social, you’ll receive a name tag and scan a QR code to access the Matching App 4.0, where you can view all attendees. After some initial mingling at the bar, ladies take their seats while gents rotate every five minutes, giving you 12 mini-dates throughout the evening. Use the app to mark your matches or potential friends, and receive your mutual matches’ contact details the next morning at 8 am.Β 

To break the ice, try our fun intermission games or use conversation cards if you’re feeling tongue-tied. With 40 attendees (20 men and 20 women), the equal ratio ensures a fair chance for everyone. Many find this face-to-face interaction far more genuine than swiping through dating apps like Tinder or Bumble.

Who You’ll Meet

The Millennial Minglers you’ll meet are typically established in their careers but still searching for that special someone. They’ve likely tried various dating methods, from apps to setups by well-meaning friends, but crave a more personal connection. Many struggle with balancing busy work lives and social commitments, making it challenging to meet potential partners organically.Β 

To make the most of your speed dating experience, be yourself, ask engaging questions, and keep an open mind. If you hit it off with someone, why not suggest a second date at the nearby NGV for a dose of culture and conversation?

Speed Dating Social, founded by Darcy Todd in 2020, has successfully hosted over 787 events, introducing more than 37,423 singles.

The Venue

Spice Market, located at 60 Beaney Lane, Melbourne VIC 3000, sets the perfect stage for our speed dating event. This opulent venue, housed in a building dating back to the 1920s that was once a textile factory, now exudes oriental charm under the ownership of the renowned hospitality group, Lucas Restaurants. The plush velvet booths and dim lighting create an intimate atmosphere perfect for getting to know your potential matches.Β 

The venue’s unique feature of private alcoves allows for more personal conversations during breaks, enhancing the speed dating experience. Don’t miss trying their signature Spice Market Martini – it’s the perfect conversation starter and might just give you the liquid courage to make a bold impression. The combination of exotic decor and carefully curated music creates an ambiance that’s both exciting and relaxing, ideal for our singles night. Pro tip: Arrive early to familiarize yourself with the layout and maybe even stake out your favorite spot at the bar for post-event mingling.
