Hi! I’m 26/F, international student, first year in melb and I’m a big sucker for Halloween! Really wanna go to some party or anything where people dress up and celebrate it!
Haven’t had any luck with friends hosting or house parties so if anyone know any place throwing a good Halloween party (not too expensive) or any house party invites for a fellow girlie, pls hmu!!!
Thank you xxx

Hope to see some of you there tonight! If you've got no plans after work and want to meet new people, come along.

I host a social reading event called Enchanted Hours over at Moondrop Bar and we have a Dungeon Crawler Carl themed (fantasy/LitPRG genre) tonight.

You don't need to have read the books, but it will help if you bring a book along as we will read for an hour (quiet reading) then get into more of a social connection/chat session after.

Ticket sales at the door or via Humanitix (comes with a welcome drink and some bookmarks, as well as use of a private space.

Hey Melbourne,

I'm 31 and based in Preston I recently went through a breakup after a long relationship. It ended kindly, but it's been hard, and I'd like to build up my circle and meet some new people. If you've been through one recently too and want to connect, I'd really like to hear from you.

Things I'm into:

- Live music, gigs and swapping music recs

- Bush walks and slowing down to notice small things like birds, bugs and mushrooms (I've done some mushroom foraging)

- Cooking and trying new food

- looking at getting into boxing and fitness

- Guitars and gaming

- Fantasy books (big Cosmere fan)

Keen for a coffee, a walk, a gig, a cook-up or a game night.

Any age or gender is welcome. If you're into any of this or you're going through something similar, drop a comment or message me.

Cheers!

Hey all wanting to see if anyone's keen to head out Saturday to a few clubs or bars for Halloween I was supposed to go with someone but they've cancelled so let's see if I can find someone on here I'm 25m open to whoever DM or comment if you're keen

Hey everyone i’m planning to go to Oz comic con on December the 5th or 6th I was wondering if there’s anyone else going? I was originally going to bring a friend but turns out she is going on holidays during then [ F(18) ]

Edit: didn't really think through the logistics of booking - discounted price is only available if you buy two tickets which I'm not comfortable doing on behalf of a stranger so I think I'll put a pin in this for now sorry! Will look at booking early bird next time and invite others to join instead. Thanks to everyone who dm'd me and lmk if you end up going anyway 🙂

Event details here: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/1987883891231

Location: Surrey Hills Neighbourhood House
Date: Sunday 15 November

In the morning (10am-1pm) workshop, you make Feta, Camembert, Blue and Ricotta. In the afternoon (2pm-5pm) workshop, you make Mozzarella, Bocconcini, Halloumi, Cheddar and Cottage cheeses (and I will show you how to make Burrata). For those booked on the full day experience, we will also make Mascarpone in the lunch break (1pm-2pm) between workshops.

Half day is $125pp & full day is $225 (or $205 if we book together). Bit steep but I think it will be fun! The host runs these workshops regularly around Melbourne so open to another date/location if you're keen but can't make it.

About me:
- friendly and easy to talk to
- big fan of "grandma hobbies" like embroidery, reading and gardening
- in need of tv/film recs

Also I have practically ✨️ perfected ✨️ my pizza recipe so this will be BIG if I learn how to make cheese too.

Thanks for reading! Feel free to comment or DM if you're interested 🙂

Hello :)

I'm from Melbourne originally but travelled so much in my 20s now I'm settled with my doggo and boyfriend. I used to live up the coast and had a good community with surfing but now being back in Melbs I've lost my way a bit socially plus being older now it's a lot harder to make real friendships not just party friends.

I was hoping to meet the same like minded souls.
I live in Kensington. I love music, walking, getting coffee, very much a girls girl! I love learning about psychology and big on everything happens for a reason. 💕

I love having conversations about life and bringing one another up and supporting each other!

Please reach out if you want to grab a coffee. 🌊💗🌸

Sorry no males.

Hey just wondering if there's any good Facebook groups or even Discord servers for metalheads/elder emos etc from Melbourne?

Don't suggest Melbourne Metal Mates, that's one big clique circlejerk.

Freshly moved to Melbourne from interstate. I'm looking for a regular life drawing class/ meetup nears Brunswick would love some recommendations.

I like park meetups and museums but I'm looking for specifically figure drawing.

New to Melbourne and wondering if anyone would be keen for the cup next week?
30M with no one to go with, lmk if you keen or already going and I could tag along

Spent the last 2 years in Melbourne grinding my a** off as a new migrant (Masters student) and didn’t get to properly experience what Melbourne had to offer. Now that my degree is done in November, I have 2 months with me before I move to Tassie for my job.

Hence I plan to make the most of these 2 months, and explore Melbourne to the fullest, or at least as much as I can financially manage 😅

About me : Masters student @ Melbourne Uni. Originally from India 🇮🇳. Will be moving to Tassie in Feb (Hobart). Working @BWS if anyone is keen on a discount 👀

Locations I’m open to : CBD, CBD/Inner city parks (Carlton Gardens, Fitzroy Gardens), NE/East Suburbs

What I offer : Gradually cultivated knowledge of hidden bars/pubs, know some decent coffee spots, amateur photographer so can take decent pics of you

hmu/comment if anyone’s interested ✌️

I have made some good connections on this sub... hoping for a few more especially now one is moving interstate :(

I am a 'sharing music is my love language' kind of person, very into EDM, live events, sitting in a sunny beer garden on a weekend afternoon having conversations that go in a million directions. If you are heading to Bicep on Sunday night that would be a huge bonus! I keep fit, don't do a lot of watching of TV or film... I'd rather walk and be in nature, travelling or talking to dogs at the beach. Trivia, thrifting, vinyl bars, tattoos are a few other loves. I have lived in Melbourne most of my life, but travelled extensively and spent a few years living abroad.

I am located close to the CBD so have a preference for similar. I am a straight shooter, professionally employed, divorced, always on time, generally open minded but avoid anything relating to religion or far right politics. Looking 35-55 ONLY and definitely prefer if you are also single. All my mates are partnered / occupied with kids so finding time with them is already enough of a challenge!

Small talk is my pet peeve... ie 'How's your day going?' or 'Tell me about yourself' so hoping you are educated and linguistically gifted enough to offer more than that, and keen to meet after we have established an online connection. The best conversations flow from random starters. Give me a fun fact about you, an event or something coming up in life you are looking forward to.

If you think we might have a few things in common, DM me (not comment below) more than a line about yourself, age and location and I'll respond if you seem like a good fit ... effort is king.

*Don't be looking to cheat on your partner or launch straight into NSFW crap.*

Hiya all, just getting the word out that there will be a two hour presentation on horror films of the 70s at Pakenham Library this Friday (30th October) at 6:30pm. It includes a display of rare, vintage horror film posters. Free to get in, but adults only! (clips shown may include adult scenes). Bookings are required. It would be great to see you there :)

When gothic dreams became contemporary nightmares: The horror films of the 1970s

For decades the horror film had been confined to the dusty gothic dreamscapes of Frankenstein, Dracula and Edgar Allan Poe adaptations. Then, with the loosened restrictions of the late 1960s the American horror film emerged to confront the present. Whether you lived in big cities, midwestern suburbs or small-town nowhere you were not safe from demonic children, chainsaw wielding madmen, mask-wearing psychos and marauding mother-nature. Even the local shopping mall may be crawling with flesh craving zombies. 

Added to that was the imported horror of burning wicker men from Britain and gut churning Italian jungle cannibal adventures. 

Join Dr. Dean Brandum for a journey back to horror’s greatest decade, when the genre reflected the neuroses of a troubled time. Strictly for attendees 18 and over, this presentation will include a visual display of original horror posters of the period (plus before and beyond). 

only people around my age (18-21), thx

Hey there 33M corporate slave who is working till the evening these days. I like to stay fit so I'll often try to get in ~10k steps after work, hoping to expand my social circle a bit while doing it :)

A bit about me I'm wasian, born here, extroverted but pretty laidback and I don't take myself too seriously. Here's a few things I like:

-Enjoy a good gym sesh or a nice hike, sadly my badminton racquets are dusty 😔

-For gaming, FPS, roguelikes, card games and board games (used to be a pro gamer)

-Love trying new cuisines and dishes

-Big into techno/edm, love going to festivals and raves

-I like comedy, horror, anime or anything with a compelling story when I'm not watching a youtube doco

Got too many interests here and there to list them and I'd like to think I'm a decent conversationalist, so if you're interested shoot me a dm :)

*** Update ***
