Polyamory+ Victoria Social Event

1st Wednesday of the month. Join us for a relaxed evening of social engagement with fellow Polyamorous, Ethically Non-Monogamous, Relationship Anarchist, and intentional relationship enthusiasts. We are inclusive of the LGBTIQ+ community and welcome individuals of all sexual orientations and gender identities. It's a perfect opportunity to share experiences, make new friends, and enjoy meaningful conversations in a welcoming courtyard environment.

We, the volunteers at Polyamory+ Victoria, will be there to hold space, check your tickets on arrival, and answer any questions from 6:30pm to 9:30pm. Reach out if you need anything.

August Event
Most of us have heard about The Ethical Slut and More Than Two, but what else is there? For our August event, we're going to be all about the abundance of Ethical Non-Monogamy resources and we're encouraging you to bring your favourite resources with you to share, whether that be physical books to show, links to your go-to "Polyamory 101" article, a Kimchi Cuddles comic that makes you feel seen, the name of a podcast. Peruse our infographics and available resources on the night, learn about more types of ENM than you knew existed, discuss terminology like metamours, the relationship escalator, polycules or our recently coined term unhinged (when you're hanging out with your metamours without the hinge partner), nerd out over the Relationship Smörgåsbord and Relationship Menu with fellow relationship anarchists; the sky's the limit!

Emphasis on Consent

Our event emphasises the importance of consent. What do we mean by “consent”?
Consent is a freely given, reversible, informed, enthusiastic, and specific agreement between all parties involved in an interaction. It's about respecting boundaries and ensuring everyone feels safe and empowered to make their own choices.

Please do note the intent of this event is a social meetup, it is not a dating or hookup event. Our Policy and Expectations are available via our website.
