The First Chapter - One Year On

One year. One incredible community. And a very special full-circle moment.

We’re celebrating our first birthday, and we couldn’t think of a better place to do it than where it all began — The Courthouse Cafe & Hotel in Bendigo.

Join us for a morning that’s all about moving, connecting, celebrating and supporting the incredible women and small businesses that make our community what it is.

We’re kicking things off with a silent disco, turning up all your favourite tunes and getting our bodies moving together. No experience required — just your headphones, your favourite songs and a willingness to have a little fun.

Then we’ll head back to Courthouse for coffee, matcha, juice and a little birthday celebration, before opening up the space to a mini market-style morning featuring some of the amazing local businesses who have supported Soul Society throughout our first year.

Think:

✨ permanent jewellery
🕯️ beautiful candles & homewares
🎁 gifts & goodies
🛍️ local businesses to discover
☕ coffee, matcha & juice
💌 connection & community in together 

It’s casual. It’s fun. There’s no pressure to know anyone or come with a group.

Come for the silent disco.
Stay for the coffee.
Shop local.
Meet someone new.
Celebrate with us.

Because Soul Society has never been about simply hosting events.

It’s about creating spaces where people can come together, feel welcome, support one another and have a good time while they’re at it.

And after one very big, very beautiful first year… we’d love to celebrate with you. 🤍
