Brisbane Singles ✨ Get ready for an elevated matchmaking experience, hosted in the Beer Garden at The Magee – a relaxed, social setting perfect for great conversations, easy mingling and a little spark of romance.

This time around, our matchmaking is going deeper than ever. Each guest will receive up to three highly compatible matches, carefully selected to create real chemistry, not just surface-level attraction. That extra magic happening behind the scenes is why tickets are slightly higher than previous Matchbox events – the experience is simply next level.

🧠 Matchbox AI Matching

Matchbox is where matchmaking meets relationship science. Powered by a Nobel Prize–backed algorithm, Matchbox has successfully matched over 500,000 people across 40+ countries.

How it works:

  • Upon arrival, you’ll complete a short matching questionnaire created by Matchbox’s team of relationship scientists and curated by your hosts.
  • The Matchbox algorithm analyses your responses to identify three optimal matches using relationship science, AI, and Nobel Prize–winning economics.
  • After plenty of time to mingle with everyone, your matches are revealed.

Important: You must arrive before 8:00PM to participate in AI matching.

👀 Good to Know

  • This event is for singles 30-45 (1-2 years either side of the bracket is fine)
  • We aim for a 50/50 gender balance, though turnout can’t be guaranteed
  • If there’s a mismatch, you may receive a platonic match plus a free ticket to a future event
  • Come with an open mind – compatibility goes deeper than looks

    AI helps with the matches, but chemistry is up to you 😉
