Success Stories 💑

Many have already found love ❤️

“When 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.”

“I 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

Looking to swap those endless dating app scrolls for real-life sparks? Welcome to Speed Dating Social at The Argyle, where Sydney’s most eligible 30-55 year olds are trading their thumb workouts for face-to-face connections. Being single in Sydney can feel like trying to catch a ferry during peak hour – everyone’s rushing past, but making a meaningful connection? That’s another story. 

Nestled in the historic heart of The Rocks at 18 Argyle St, The Argyle is just a 5-minute stroll from Circular Quay station (or hop off the 333 bus if you’re coming from Bondi). Whether you’re rocking up from trendy Surry Hills or crossing the bridge from North Sydney, you’ll fit right in with our diverse crowd. Pro tip: The Rocks Markets are perfect for last-minute outfit hunting, or hit up Pitt Street Mall for that confidence-boosting ensemble.

How It Works

Gone are the days of awkward blind dates that feel longer than a Western Sydney commute. Our streamlined speed dating format keeps things moving faster than a Manly ferry on a sunny day. Armed with your name tag and our cutting-edge Matching App 4.0, you’ll enjoy twelve 5-minute dates between 7-9pm. Ladies, you’ll be comfortably seated while gents rotate – think of it as musical chairs for grown-ups with potential soulmates! Our conversation cards will keep the chat flowing smoother than a flat white from The Grounds. 

Take a breather during our 8pm intermission to digest both the conversations and perhaps one of The Argyle’s famous cocktails. The best part? No more immediate pressure – matches are revealed at 8am the next morning when mutual connections get each other’s contact details. With a perfectly balanced ratio of 20 men and 20 women, your odds of finding chemistry are better than scoring a parking spot in Newtown.

Who You’ll Meet

Our crowd? Think successful professionals who’ve mastered their careers but are looking for that special someone to share their Sydney lifestyle with. These are people who know their way around a wine list at Cafe Sydney but aren’t afraid to grab a casual bite at the Night Markets. 

They’re navigating the unique challenges of dating in a city where everyone’s too busy building their empire to build meaningful connections. Our attendees are trading in their dating app fatigue for real-world chemistry, armed with stories about harbor bridge climbs and secret bar discoveries. Looking for first date ideas? The Observatory Hill sunset picnic spot is just around the corner – perfect for that “let’s continue this conversation” moment.

Your Host

Since our founder Darcy Todd launched Speed Dating Social in 2020, we’ve played cupid for 37,423 singles across 787 events. Our secret sauce? We maintain strict equal gender ratios and create an atmosphere where connections feel as natural as Sunday brunch in Balmain. Secure your spot for $29.90 (early bird) or $34.90 (last release) – that’s less than a typical Sydney brunch! While we can’t guarantee love, we can guarantee an evening of genuine connections. Questions? Drop us a line at matches@speeddatingsocial.com.

The Venue

The Argyle isn’t just any venue – this 1820s former hospital turned sophisticated bar space has seen its fair share of Sydney love stories unfold beneath its heritage sandstone arches. The intimate cocktail lounge area provides the perfect backdrop for our speed dating events, with subtle lighting that flatters everyone better than an Instagram filter. Start your evening with their signature Australian Negroni – it’s the perfect conversation starter and courage booster. 

The venue’s unique blend of historic charm and modern sophistication creates an atmosphere that’s simultaneously impressive and comfortable, much like the Sydney Opera House at sunset. Speaking of which, why not suggest a guided tour of the Opera House for that second date? Nothing says “Sydney romance” quite like sharing stories under those iconic sails.
