Date My Mate @ Dee Why Bowls
Friend-powered dating on the green.
Mates pitch their friends over drinks and pre-show vibes. No pressure-evening, just an easy night at our favourite local club.
How It Works
A mate builds the pitch
They put together a short slide deck about why their single mate is a catch. Humour encouraged.
The pitch goes on stage
Mates take the mic at Dee Why Bowls Club, pitching their friends to a room full of friends. Drinks flowing on the green.
Everyone mingles
Half the room came along just to watch, drink and mingle — that's where most connections happen. Grab a Mingle Ticket if that's you. No swiping. Just walk up and say "Hi, I liked your pitch."
