The West Australian Men’s Gathering is a space for men to meet, laugh, learn and explore some of the issues affecting our lives. It allows men to meet in a safe, confidential, and respectful way where we can share our story, reflect on life, have some fun, and better understand ourselves and our place in the world.

This year we are celebrating the 30th Annual West Australian Men’s Gathering! We are proud to say that the Gathering has been celebrating men since 1995!

To commemorate the feat this year’s theme is…… “Relationships: Deeper Connections in a Changing World”

This theme recognises the deep connections and community that many men have built and evolved through their attendance and contribution to the Gathering. We also acknowledge that having nourishing and healthy relationships are vitally important as we traverse the various phases of our lives and the challenges that they bring.

We are eager to welcome all old and new men to attend this year’s 30th Gathering, to rekindle old friendships and bonds or perhaps to find a new space in you, for deep connection, comradery, conversation and community.

Our program for this year aims to go back to basics with honouring our traditions, rituals, elders and our roots. Delving into the core of our relationships with others and ourselves.

We hope to see you there!

The gathering will be held at Camp Kelly located near Dwellingup over the weekend of 25 – 27 October. This peaceful bush setting will provide a back-to-nature feel for the whole weekend.

You can expect fire pits, workshops, great meals, group work, yoga, fun, ceremony, laughter, music, bushwalking, storytelling, and above all… mateship.

The Gathering program starts on Friday evening and finishes in the afternoon on the Sunday. You have the option of arriving on Friday afternoon to spend some extra time getting to know the other men participating, prior to the formal program starting.

This year’s program is still being developed. It will include speakers and facilitators presenting a choice of interactive sessions over the weekend that will stimulate, educate and inspire.

Importantly there will be time built in to talk, reflect and consider our life goals. The full program will be provided a few weeks prior to
the Gathering.

The cost for the weekend is $380 including all activities, meals and accommodation. Thanks to the generous sponsorship of Lotterywest, subsidies are available on request for concessions and those in challenging circumstances. We believe no man should miss out on the Gathering due to financial constraints.
