CitySwoon is very excited to be bringing our UNIQUE, in-person matched speed dating back to one of Brisbane's hottest new cocktail bars - The Gatsby Cocktail & Whiskey Lounge!

Fill out a profile in under 5 minutes and be matched on a series of 6-8 quick-fire date rounds to THE most compatible singles in the room.

This event includes 2 drinks - one on arrival and one at the end of dating.

Check-in is on your phone, with NO match cards, drink tokens, paper or pens required - just bring your phone and your great attitude! So, please ensure it's fully charged.

The Event

- Experience a series of relaxed mini-dates selected for you each round by an intelligent algorithm live at the event.
- Hosted by a friendly and professional team.
- Handpicked, top bar with a welcoming atmosphere.
- Connect freely with your mutual matches the next day on CitySwoon.
- Opportunity to connect with the other participants you don't date on the night.

The Venue

The Gatsby is inspired by the illustrious soirees of the 1920s golden age. Tucked discreetly off Ann Street in the GPO's upper floor. Escape into the folds of uninhibited indulgence and incomparable class, where every drink is a celebration worthy of Mr Gatsby himself. Travel back to an era when drinks were as opulent as the parties themselves, as The Gatsby beckons you with an extensive selection of the world's finest aged liqueurs. Prepare to be dazzled by never-before-seen cocktail curations, carefully crafted to captivate your senses and leave a lasting impression.
