Queer Friends Cocktail Party

A warm, relaxed evening designed for queer folks to gather, sip cocktails, share plates, and make real connections — no pressure, no noise, just good company.

Set in the cozy space of Hail Lilith in Footscray, this isn’t your standard night out. It’s an intimate gathering built for people who want to meet folks who get it — whether you’re new to town, between friend groups, or just craving some low-lift social time. Tickets are limited to 24, so you’ll have room to breathe, chat, and actually connect.

Hosted by Ben — your friendly guide through the evening — you’ll get a welcome drink on arrival, share a grazing platter made with plant-based goodness, and choose from a set menu of burgers. Think of it as dinner with new friends you haven’t met yet.

There’ll be gentle icebreakers and conversation starters — nothing forced, no awkward games, just enough structure to help solo guests slide right in. Whether you come alone or with your crew, you’ll leave with new connections, full bellies, and maybe even a phone number or two.

Open to all genders, all ages 18+, and all vibes — if you’re queer and looking for a place to be yourself while having a genuinely nice time, this event was made for you. No drama. No agenda. Just good people, good food, and good vibes.

Organised by LGBT+ Social Hub Melbourne — creators of inclusive, community-first gatherings — this event lives by their zero-tolerance policy on bullying, harassment, or discrimination. Your safety and comfort are non-negotiable.

Grab your ticket before they’re gone — it’s going to be a night worth remembering.
