Looking to meet genuine people aged 45-60 (or just outside that range)? This is your chance!

Step away from dating apps and into real, face-to-face connection with Connect Social AU.

Join us for a cozy afternoon of speed dating at the exclusively booked Drop In Espresso Bar, Wallsend—an intimate space wrapped in dim lighting and the smooth sounds of sultry jazz and blues. It’s the perfect atmosphere for sparking new conversations, meaningful connections, and fresh beginnings.

Your ticket includes:

• 5–8 speed dates (each 5–7 minutes long)

• A drink on arrival (choose from cappuccino, hot chocolate, tea, water or soft drink)

• Delicious shared food during our relaxed mingle session

• Exclusive venue hire

• Light icebreaker games to help ease you in

• A friendly host to guide the evening and ensure everything runs smoothly

After each date, you’ll complete a short match form. Your host will collect them, and you’ll receive your matches by text within 48 hours. Please double-check your email and phone number when booking so we can contact you.

Want to keep the chat going after the event?

There are plenty of nearby venues just a short stroll away—perfect for continuing the conversation.

Tickets are limited—secure yours early!

Discounted early bird tickets are available until sold out or one week before the event (whichever comes first).

If your preferred ticket type is sold out, be sure to join both the early bird and general waitlists so you’ll be notified if any spots open up.
