10 mini-dates.

One great night.

Meet interesting people face-to-face. Leave with a pocket full of kind words and maybe someone’s number.

How It Works

Step 1

Arrive & Settle In

Grab a drink, find your table number, and take a breath. Our hosts will welcome you and explain how the night flows.

Step 2

10 Mini-Dates, 5 Minutes Each

You’ll have 10 one-on-one conversations throughout the night. Cue cards on each table help spark genuine chat if you need them. When the bell rings, you rotate.

Step 3

Exchange Gratitude Notes

After each mini-date, you exchange a short gratitude note with your partner. At the end of the night, you take home an envelope full of notes to open when you get home.

The Gratitude Notes

After each mini-date, you write a note about something you appreciated. Here’s what real notes look like:

“hi sarah. still thinking about that pickle ice cream idea. we need to find somewhere that does it. 027 654 3210 – Tom”

“When you said you’d never tried Korean BBQ I nearly fell off my chair. We’re fixing this. 021 876 5432 – Jess”

“You actually listen when people talk. I noticed that. Thanks Matt. – Amy”

“That was fun! Good luck out there :) – Fiona”

“Your laugh! Made my whole night honestly. Would love to make you laugh again sometime. 027 332 8844 – Oscar”

“Five minutes wasn’t enough! Coffee this week? 022 111 2233 – Danielle”

What People Say

“I found going to this event very nerve-wracking because I was on my own. However, the set up, process and hosts were amazing. I had a great time chatting to lots of people.”

— Vonny F., Christchurch

“The venue was a whole vibe. Loved it… The people (including the hosts) were awesome. I’d definitely do another one.”

— Elise M., Auckland

— Matt T., Auckland

Questions?

What if conversation feels forced?

That’s what our cue cards are for! Each table has conversation starters ranging from light (“What’s your go-to karaoke song?”) to deeper (“What’s something you’re proud of this year?”). But honestly? Most people forget about them within two minutes.

Who goes to these?

People who are over dating apps. Most guests are early 30s, but you’ll meet a mix — anyone who vibes with the millennial crowd is welcome.

Is it safe?

Yes. Private venue spaces, two hosts at every event, and everyone has a ticket — no random walk-ins.

Wait, who wrote this note again?

We send you a photo guide the next day so you can put faces to names.

Ready to Meet Your People?

10 conversations. A pocket full of kind words. Maybe someone special.
