Description

Ready to swap the dating apps for a few hours of barefoot bowls, drinks and good company?

Join Get Snowballing at The Gladstone Bowling Club in Balmain for a relaxed afternoon designed for singles 40+ who want to get out, meet new people and have some fun.

📍 The Gladstone Bowling Club, Balmain
📅 Saturday 5 September
⏰ From 4:00pm

🎳 What's included?

Your ticket includes:

🎳 Barefoot bowls
🍹 Your first drink
👋 Small, mixed bowling groups
🗣️ A hosted social experience

What to expect

We'll get you onto the green in small, mixed bowling groups, giving you a natural way to meet and chat with different people throughout the afternoon.

When you book, we'll ask a few simple questions about your interests and what you're looking for socially. Where we can, we'll use these to help create groups with people who have some things in common.

As we're building our community, the groups aren't an exact science — they're simply a little more considered than putting everyone into a random team.

And most importantly, there's no pressure.

No speed dating.
No awkward interviews.
No forced introductions.

Just bowls, drinks, conversation, a bit of friendly competition and the chance to spend time with some new people.

Who's it for?

Singles 40+ who are looking to:

• Get out and try something different
• Meet new people in real life
• Expand their social circle
• Have a laugh and enjoy a few drinks
• Connect with people who enjoy similar things

Come on your own or bring a friend. Either way, we'll get you into the mix.

Why Get Snowballing?

Because we think meeting people should be more about doing things together and less about endlessly swiping.

Come for the bowls. Stay for the banter.

Plans change, we get it. Refunds and credits depend on how close to the event you cancel, and transfers may be available too (subject to a few balancing rules). Full details in our Terms & Conditions. To request one, email hello@getsnowballing.com.au with your order number.

Get Snowballing will provide as much notice as reasonably practicable in the circumstances. 12.5 Ticket Transfers Tickets may be transferred to another eligible attendee up to twenty-four (24) hours before the event, subject to prior written approval by Get Snowballing. To maintain balanced participation and attendee experience, transfers are generally only permitted to another attendee of the same gender category as the original booking. The replacement attendee must: a) satisfy the eligibility requirements for the event; b) provide all required registration information; and c) agree to these Terms & Conditions prior to attending. Get Snowballing reserves the right to refuse a transfer request where operational, safety, or event balancing concerns apply.
