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

Ready to ditch the dating apps and meet Melbourne’s most eligible singles face-to-face? Join us for an unforgettable evening of speed dating at the iconic Spice Market, where we’re bringing together vibrant professionals aged 25-37 who know there’s more to life than endless swiping. Being single in Melbourne can feel like trying to find a flat white in Sydney – unnecessarily complicated – but we’re here to change that! Located in the heart of the CBD at Beaney Lane, we’re just steps from Flinders Street Station and perfectly positioned on multiple tram routes including the 48, 70, and 75. Rock up in smart casual that shows your personality – think elevated Friday drinks vibes. Pop into Alpha60 in QV or browse the boutiques at Emporium for that perfect outfit that says “I’ve got my life together but I’m still fun.” Whether you’re making the trek from the creative hub of Richmond or crossing the river from sophisticated South Yarra, you’ll find yourself among Melbourne’s most interesting singles.

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 Melbourne’s brunch scene. From 7-9pm, you’ll enjoy 12 five-minute dates, with our carefully curated ice breakers ensuring conversation flows as smoothly as a barista’s pour-over. 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 Hinge prompt was actually witty or just recycled from Reddit. 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 Melbourne’s most interesting young professionals – the kind who know their cold brew from their cold drip and have strong opinions about which laneway has the best street art. You’ll meet creative agency folks fresh from their Collingwood offices, tech startups building the next big thing in the CBD, and medical professionals from the nearby hospitals who’ve finally got a night off. Many are at that sweet spot in life where they’re established in their careers but ready to find someone special to share their favorite hidden bars with. Dating in Melbourne at this age can feel like navigating hook turns – tricky but manageable with the right approach. Success at our events often comes down to authenticity – share your genuine thoughts on whether Lune Croissanterie is worth the queue, or debate the best rooftop bar in the city. For a memorable second date, we suggest catching an indie film at ACMI or sharing sunset drinks at Rooftop Bar – both guaranteed conversation starters.

Your Host

Speed Dating Social, founded by Darcy Todd in 2020, has successfully hosted over 787 events, introducing more than 37,423 singles. We pride ourselves on maintaining equal ratios of men and women at every event, ensuring a balanced and enjoyable experience for all.Β

Please note that we don’t offer refunds within 30 days of an event to maintain fairness for all attendees. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to our team atΒ matches@speeddatingsocial.com.

The Venue

Spice Market isn’t just another Melbourne venue; it’s a CBD institution that perfectly captures the city’s blend of sophistication and fun. The venue’s opulent decor, with its Moroccan-inspired touches and mood lighting, creates an atmosphere that’s both impressive and intimate. Their mixologists craft some of the best cocktails in the city – we recommend starting your evening with their signature “Spice Market Sling” to calm those first-date butterflies. The multi-level space creates natural flow and intimate conversation areas, while the central bar adds energy and atmosphere that’s perfect for our speed dating format. Before or after the event, take a wander through the famous laneways – maybe grab a cocktail at Eau de Vie or explore the street art in Hosier Lane. These quintessentially Melbourne experiences make for perfect ice breakers and even better second date ideas.
