Dykes after Dark (A Lesbian/Queer+ Gathering) NAARM!

NAARM, MELBOURNE!

Step into a cozy alcove of private lounges and low lighting, beckoning you to surrender to the embrace of laughter. Immerse yourself in playful conversations, as friendly flames flicker and dance, softly illuminating faces transformed by the warmth of possibility. Here, the walls whisper secrets of shared stories, and the giggles rise like bubbles, effervescent and unguarded, inviting you to leave as more than strangers. Embrace the magic of the moment. Welcome back.

EVENT DETAILS:

7.00 PM - 11.00 PM ⭐ 

Come join us on the evening of 30 May for a BIG Lesbian/Queer+ social gathering at Crystal Palace & Courtyard, Carlton North. It is a casual, but charming atmosphere, privately booked out for you to socialise among the Lesbian/Queer community. Grab your bloody shiraz gin or Coke no sugar from the bar and turn strangers into dearest companions. 

Event Breakdown:

We'll greet ya at the door, tick ya name off and give you a name card. 

★ Name Game: You never know who you'll meet! You will receive a guests name upon arrival, and it will be your mission to find them. There’s a question on the back that you can ask if you’d like. This game fosters chatter, banter, and memories. The connections are boundless.

Note: Once you ask someone their name, even if they are NOT your assigned person, you should exchange questions.

★ Horoscope Bingo! Complete different quests throughout the night. Eg.Find a Libra who is very good at flirting or find someone who isn't a scorpio but is giving scorpio energy or find someone to read your palm etc. Just a light-hearted game to play along.

★ Uno cards available. 

★ Call me cards: Keep in contact with each other. Write your details down on one of the 'Call me Cards' displayed around the venue. It's a lovely gesture, an old fashion trick that works like charm! 

★ BYO snacks: You're more than welcome to bring along some snacks for the evening. Please note this does not include beverages.

Third Rodeo Background

At Third Rodeo, we believe in creating a warm and inviting space for the Lesbian and Queer community to thrive. Our events are designed specifically for individuals in their 20s and up, providing a dedicated environment where you can make meaningful connections.

Our philosophy is simple. We are your Third home. 

Whether you come solo or with friends, or if its your First or Third Rodeo, you’ll find our atmosphere relaxed, charming, and just a little bit cheeky! We’re all about bringing people together, and we’re thrilled to have hosted successful events in Naarm/Melbourne, Gadigal Land/Sydney, Meanjin/Brisbane and Boorloo/Perth. Many of my own beautiful queer friendships have blossomed from these gatherings, and I can’t wait for you to experience the same.

I know it can be intimidating to show up alone, but trust me—you’re not alone in that feeling. Everyone is here for the same reason: to connect and find their community. You’ll quickly find that our crowd is warm, friendly, and welcoming!

Thank you for supporting our Lesbian/Non-Binary led small business. Your encouragement means the world to us, and I adore each and every one of you. I can’t wait to see you at our next event!

With love,
Jessy
