What we’re about
Would you like to meet new people and make new friends? Do you find that you work too hard and have no time to meet new people? Have you just moved cities and find yourself a bit lovely?
Come join us as we build a network of new friends by meeting regularly at bars and pubs and meet and socialise over a few drinks and chats.

Here you can see everyone from different cultures and races meeting and having a great time and this is what we tend to achieve everytime we host!
Here is how we will do things differently
Ever since Covid has occurred the world has changed ways in how we function and operate.
Meeting people of various cultures has become difficult with various restrictions and with online events people rarely have the opportunity of meeting face to face and this results in not getting the right opportunity to meet in person.
We will always have hosts at all our events. You will always be greeted by someone
at all our events and introduced to others. (Warm & welcoming hosts to help you
mingle!)

We will minimise no shows by requiring attendees to pay a deposit in advance. No
shows are misleading and not fun for organisers nor for members.
We will not disguise organisation costs in opaque ticket prices, commissions from
bars or inflated set menu prices.
We will instead ask for a small charge of a few pounds to help us manage the group and its activities. (Very Transparent)
We will strive to attract a high quality membership who prefer higher quality
venues and events. We will not be driven by happy hours, free food etc...(as all
of these are eventually balanced out by much higher prices later)
We will constantly request members to help us host events and take a lead on
activities so that we have energy and variety.

I very much hope that you will join us and create a vibrant social community
which is close knit and high quality.

See all- Fast Friends - Mix & mingle social for ladies & gents! (25-45/Bring Lady FREE)Shark Hotel, Sydney
Will your life change if you met just one lady or gentleman with who you really connect? Will it be completely transformed if you meet more? Could they be your next best friend, your life partner, your next employer or your next business partner?
If you don't meet new people you will never know and never meet them. Give yourself the opportunity and join us. Yes, it may change your life!
'Fast friending' is our fun and quick way to help you make new connections quickly with both ladies and gentlemen. These are people in the age group of 25 and 45 and so you will be on a similar wavelength. Naturally you can always choose who to speak with based on your preference!
Here’s how our Fast Friending works:-
- We will meet at 7.00 and have time to get settle down and get a drink.- From about 7.30 to 8.30 we will run the fast friending system. Half of the group (mixed gender) will stay in a fixed place and the other half of the group (mixed gender) will be asked to rotate. During these intervals, each pair of people will get the opportunity to talk to each other.
- Shelly will be hosting the evening and he will organize the fast friending process. She will indicate when you should move to the next person.
- From 8.30 onwards we will stop the system and people will have to chance go chat and interact with those they have met as well as others.
If you are a bit shy or anxious then please come early. Shelly will help you meet other members in a small group and help you settle down and get comfortable. All attendees are also welcome to bring a lady friend along with them for free. This will make it a lot less stressful for you as you will always have your friend alongside.Shelly, your lovely host will be there to welcome you warmly into the group and also help you with introductions!
