Hey, ladies of Newy! Blooming Nights are back for our third event! Cocktails with the Girls takes a twist at this intimate cocktail soiree for the ladies out there excited to meet other women who love women (or who think they might!).

Enjoy delicious cocktails and a facilitated panel session - "Stripping the Shame - When Coming Out is Coming Home to Who You Really Are".

We’ve created a safe and consensual space to meet and mingle that’s also subtle and sophisticated. Enjoy a friendly atmosphere for those who are at the start of their bi-curious adventures and a place to bloom for those who identify as bi+/lesbian/queer/other and are ready to make new connections. Open to all women who love women (or think they might)!

A dedicated evening for the curious, questioning and exploring women out there to meet others doing the same.

Join Blooming Nights Newcastle for a sultry evening with new friends this September. Delicious cocktail will be on offer and we'll play our popular get-to-know-you game and have a panel discussion, complete with Q&A (no questions are off the table for us!). After that, the night is up to you! Chat to your hosts about what it is like to navigate the online dating world, sex with women, and any Qs you might have, or enjoy discussion with new friends.

Limited to 30 tickets plus we have a bring a friend special offer available!

Who we are

As women who love women (we all identify differently!) we recognised how tricky taking those first steps towards what your heart and body crave can be. Especially in your 30-40’s!

Blooming Nights Events provides sophisticated spaces for modern women to connect with other curious women and respectfully and safely navigate new ideas, identities and connections.

FAQ's

What should I wear?
The dress code is cocktail but don't let that stop you from dressing however you feel comfortable! This is your evening, we want you to be as relaxed as possible.

Who exactly is this for?

This space is created for women in their 30-40's at the start of their journey exploring their sexuality or interest in the world of women, or those willing to support newcomers to the space. You don't need to identify as bisexual or gay to attend, if you're curious, you're welcome! You're also welcome to attend if you aren't in this age bracket, just know this will be the general age group.

Is this a play/hookup party?

No, this event is a cocktail meet-and-mingle-style event with a panel discussion. What you do after the event with your new connections is up to you!

Do I have to be single?

Whether you're single, partnered and flying solo, or anywhere in between, you're welcome to attend. There are no expectations to do anything other than enjoy a drink with some new friends! Consent is important, so we do encourage disclosure of your current relationship status if you do connect with someone.

Will there be an after-party?

Stay tuned, we're working on this one!

Will there be other events?
