Hey Gold Coast singles 25–45 💘
We’re bringing Matchbox Matchmaking to The Collective Palm Beach for the first time and this isn’t your usual Thursday singles night.
Think cocktails, good food, a gorgeous open-air venue and a room full of singles… except this time, we’re helping you work out who in the room you might actually be compatible with. ✨
Throughout the night, you’ll mingle in curated groups, meet plenty of singles and have your most compatible match revealed to you.
Who you actually end up clicking with? That part is still up to you 😉
❤️🔥 👀 WHAT TO EXPECT
Matching will be powered by Matchbox, where matchmaking meets relationship science. Matchbox has helped create over 500,000 matches across 40+ countries.
Upon arrival, you’ll complete a short matching questionnaire built by Matchbox’s research team and curated by your host. The Matchbox algorithm uses relationship science and Nobel Prize-winning behavioural economics to identify your most compatible match in the room.
Throughout the night:
• You’ll mingle within curated groups designed to get you meeting different people. • Your most compatible match will be revealed to you during the evening. • Your match is designed to be values-aligned, not necessarily love-at-first-sight. • You’re still at a Thursday event — mingle, flirt and talk to whoever catches your eye. Your match isn’t the only person you’re allowed to connect with! • There’s zero pressure — be curious, have fun and be kind. • If there is an imbalance, you may receive a platonic compatibility match.
Matchbox finds the compatibility. You decide if there’s chemistry. 😉
