We Love Fitzroy Community Gathering

Looking to connect with your neighbours and get more involved in the Fitzroy community?

Join us for the We Love Fitzroy Community Gathering—a fun, interactive, and welcoming space to meet locals, share ideas, and explore what we want Fitzroy to be. This isn’t a talkfest—it’s a hands-on session where we’ll spark conversations, exchange stories, and discover ways to support each other and make things happen.

Expect a lively afternoon with small group discussions, opportunities to share your passions, and chances to connect with like-minded people who care about this place as much as you do.

What to expect?

• Meet neighbours from Fitzroy and nearby
• Share your interests, experiences, and ideas
• Find ways to participate in the community—or ask for support
• Learn about local projects, skills, and opportunities
• Have fun and make new connections
• Light snacks and refreshments 

Who’s It For?
This gathering is for anyone who loves Fitzroy and wants to connect with others.

• If you live in Fitzroy or a nearby suburb, come along!
• If you’re new to the area, it’s a great way to meet people.
• If you’ve been here forever, we’d love to hear your stories.
• Whether you want to get involved in the community or just listen, there’s a place for you.

We welcome people of all backgrounds, cultures, and experiences. Fitzroy is a diverse and vibrant community, and this gathering is a space where everyone belongs.

Who’s Running It?
This event is hosted and facilitated by We Love Fitzroy, a group of volunteers working to connect and support our neighbourhood, led by locals who care about building a welcoming community.
