An unspoken, undeniable spark catches you off guard mid-conversation, forever altering your course.

Step beyond the ordinary and into a realm where endless possibilities unfold. Soft lamps, gentle hands, and tender words cast a luminous glow, creating an intimate haven where time seems to stand still—like at the edge of sleep, where dreams and reality blur. Do you fantasise about the feelings you really want to feel? Take a chance. Play your best card. This is the night to set the tone for the year ahead. Perhaps you'll find someone new—an unexpected connection waiting to be discovered this summer.

Introduction

Welcome to Third Rodeo’s first Lesbian/Queer Social Gathering of 2026!

A vibrant event designed for connection, conversation, flirting, and making new mates. There are 80 spots available, so seize the opportunity!

Our goal for 2026 is simple: to continue creating a fun, loving, and inclusive third space where you can be challenged, find community, and build meaningful connections. If you’re new here, Third Rodeo’s name is inspired by the Third Place Theory—the idea that true, authentic connections are forged in a third environment outside of home and work. The word "Rodeo" comes from the phrase, "not my first rodeo," symbolising confidence.

The more our community chooks attend our events, the more they feel comfortable in expressing their identity and greeting new people. Your support means the world to us. Third Rodeo raises funds through these events with the dream of opening a permanent third space in Kaurna Country. We believe we can make it happen.

In the meantime, saddle up and put yourself out there—you never know what fate or destiny has in store. Perhaps tonight is the night you were meant to meet someone special.

Enjoy yourself.

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. Get given a guests name upon arrival and make it your mission to find them. There’s a question on the back to ask them if you’d like. This game creates chatter, banter and memories. The connections are boundless.

Note: Once you ask someone their name, even if it is NOT your person, you should exchange questions (-:

★ Pie Square deep baked focaccia available for early arrivers.

★ 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!

Third Rodeo Background

Starting back in 2023!

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, Boorloo/Perth and Kaurna Country/Adelaide. 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,
TR
