The Brisbane Ball: BNELRC x Lesbirun
Get ready to trade your running shoes for heels and glitter — Brisbane’s lesbian community is throwing a night of elegance, mischief, and connection, all under one glittering roof at Mirrorball Ministries. This isn’t just another night out; it’s the first-ever party in Brisbane co-hosted by BNELRC (Brisbane Lesbian Run Club) and Lesbirun Team, and it’s designed to help you find your next bestie, running buddy, or maybe something a little more electric.
Expect a curated evening of charm and laughter, with live matchmaking games, ice-breakers, and plenty of compliments to get the conversation — and maybe the sparks — flowing. The night will be filled with performances by some of Brisbane’s brightest queer talents, ensuring the energy never dips. Dress to impress — black tie attire encouraged — because this is about celebrating your best self, whether you’re here to mingle, date, or just dance like nobody’s watching (except maybe the DJ).
Everyone’s welcome — regardless of dating status, orientation, or how many laps you’ve run this week. Stickers will help you signal your intent: ‘Open to Mates’, ‘Open to Dates’, or both. Think of it as speed-dating meets ballroom elegance, minus the awkward small talk and plus plenty of sparkle.
Lesbirun, known for their wildly successful parties in Melbourne, bring their signature flair to Brissie for this special launch. So polish your shoes, fluff your hair, and prepare for a night where connections are made, stories are shared, and your playlist gets a serious upgrade.
Highlights:
- Four and a half hours of pure social magic
- Live stage matchmaking games
- Queer performers from Brisbane’s underground scene
- Black-tie dress code — bring your best (or just your sparkliest)
- Stickers for intent — mates, dates, or both
This is more than a party — it’s your invitation to belong, connect, and celebrate in style.
