Where to find your next hunk of burning love.

Overview

Not strictly a destination for heavenly buns, much-loved burger joint Burger Burger will play cupid this Valentine's Day with its annual Blind Dates event.

Over the past eight years (with a few COVID exceptions) the burger joint has held the annual matchmaking event as an antagonist to online swiping and questionable dating terms like catfishing, ghosting and breadcrumbing.  The Valentine's celebration invites singles to put their hearts on the line to see if they can meet their next hunk of burning love (or date for the night, at least). In past years the speed dating event has attracted singles by the hundreds for food, drink and mingling.

Hopefuls this year will be able to enter themselves or a single friend into the dating pool via the Burger Burger website and yes, singles of all genders and sexual orientations are welcomed. From there, the expert matchmakers will choose lucky lovers to attend Blind Dates parties in Auckland and Christchurch to partake in hosted speed dating, followed by mingling, awkward chats, drinks and nibbles, and hopefully a few sneaky pashes.

Early bird tickets start from $45 plus booking fees and include your entry, plus delicious burgers and ice-cold drinks all evening. Finding your soul mate for less than $50? Cheers to that.
