Making new friends in Sydney doesn't have to be awkward.
Whether you're new to the city or simply looking to expand your social circle, Fast Friends makes meeting people easy, relaxed and genuinely enjoyable.
Meet 15–25 like-minded people through fun, guided conversations—then stay afterwards for drinks with the people you connected with most.

Booking in advance helps us reserve the right amount of space and create the best possible experience for everyone.
We've reserved a quieter space at Shark Hotel exclusively for our group, making it easier to enjoy meaningful conversations away from the busy bar. Most guests come on their own, so you'll feel welcome from the moment you arrive.
🕖 Evening Flow
7:00 PM – Welcome & Drinks
Meet your host, Shelly, grab a drink and settle in. If you're attending alone, don't worry—most people do! We'll make introductions and help everyone feel comfortable.
7:30 PM – Fast Friends
Meet a variety of new people through a series of short, guided conversations designed to help you go beyond small talk and make genuine connections.
From 8:30 PM – Drinks & Mingling
The guided conversations finish, but the evening doesn't. Stay afterwards to continue chatting with your favourite new connections.
