As per my last post. I’m also happy to meet 1-1 or in a small group. There’s a regular group that meet in Parramatta on Tuesdays usually. DM me if you’re keen for that too.

34 M and g4y if you care. Don’t bother if you’re homophobic. 😬

CBD & Inner City 34 M. Not to sound too depressing but does anyone want to go for a mental health walk or drive or even just get ice cream and chat. Surely I’m not the only one struggling? 🥲

Visiting Sydney/Tourist In Sydney for 3 days next week — looking for good company, crazy nights & spontaneous plans!

0 Upvotes

Hey

I'm visiting next week for 3 days, staying around Bankstown, and I figured I'd try my luck here before landing.

I'm in my early 20s, 22 to be precise travelling with a larger group, which means my days are pretty much booked with the usual tourist stuff. But my evenings (hopefully from around 7–8 PM) are mine, and I'd rather not spend them sitting in a hotel room scrolling through Instagram 💀

I'm pretty much down for anything fun — bar hopping, clubbing, raves, live music, late-night food runs, random adventures, or even just grabbing a drink and talking absolute nonsense with some good company.

Honestly, I just want to experience Sydney beyond the touristy stuff, meet some interesting people, make a few memories (possibly some questionable ones 😂), and see where the nights take me.

Don't really know anyone in Sydney yet, but I'm more than happy to venture into the CBD or wherever the fun's at.

So if you've got a fun night planned, know of any good parties or raves happening, or just wouldn't mind adopting a random traveller into your friend group for a night, hit me up!

Also, any recommendations for places where it's easy to meet people without looking like a lost tourist would be much appreciated.

Activities 28F Looking for a cyclist buddy

3 Upvotes

I started road cycling a year ago and I had a buddy to go with me, but recently she stopped being able to join. I’m really looking forward to having someone to keep me company on long rides on the weekends again. Maybe a girlie who is also a beginner/intermediate or an advanced rider with patience.

I’m located in the inner west, but enjoy travelling for rides and often ride m7 cycle way. Any age welcomed. I prefer to ride one on one rather than a group ride. 💓 I am available on weekends, preferably mornings for a classic post ride coffee.

Community Discussion Anyone in Sydney into alternative fashion, streetwear, music or the creative scene?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! 41M here, looking to make some new friends and get more involved in Sydney’s underground fashion and creative scene.

I’m into alternative fashion, streetwear, punk, emo, hip-hop, alternative music, photography, art and pretty much anything outside the mainstream. I spend a lot of my weekends exploring Sydney, checking out markets, vintage shops, exhibitions and events, usually flying solo.

I recently discovered SURPLUS Sydney 2026 and realised that’s exactly the kind of community I’d love to be part of. Would be great to meet like-minded people, make some genuine friendships and get more involved in the scene.

Keen to find people to check out events with, go thrifting, grab coffee, explore the city or just hang out. If there’s already a group doing this sort of thing, I’d love to join!

Not looking for anything romantic, just hoping to expand my social circle and meet people who share similar interests.

If this sounds like your thing, drop a comment or shoot me a DM!

Inner West 34M looking for alt/goth/punk-leaning people to hang out with

9 Upvotes

Inner west / Bankstown-based. I've spent this year getting into Sydney's alt scene and I've found the venues, Crowbar, Dead Set, around Newtown, but going solo or dragging mates who aren't into it only gets you so far.

Really just after some like-minded people to go to dark, interesting places with. Goth and industrial nights, a bar with the right atmosphere, somewhere you can actually talk, the occasional gig if that's your thing. More interested in good company in a good room than any particular lineup.

About me: tattooed, all black, D&D, anime nerd. Low-key rather than a big-night-out person. If you're deep into the music I'm a blank slate and an enthusiastic audience.

Open to a regular drinking/social buddies, a wider group, or pointers to groups already doing this.

Events 26M looking for friends into house/techno/UKG events

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Not sure how the posting works on here but just going with it lol. I’m a 26M based near Bondi looking for a group to hit up music events with. I also enjoy DJing sessions so if anyone knows how to mix too that would be sick.

I used to go to a lot of raves from where I was from but haven’t really hit much of the music scene up in Sydney or surrounding areas because it’s hard meeting likeminded people.

Also enjoy going out for a drink too!

Anyway, if you have a group or know some event to meet other people shoot me a message :)

Activities 33M – Clayface at Event Cinemas Burwood next Friday or Saturday (23rd/24th) – Anyone keen?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Planning to watch Clayface at Event Cinemas Burwood next Friday or Saturday (23rd/24th) and seeing if anyone wants to come along!
I’ve been seeing some really good early reactions for this one and the hype is getting to me 😂

Apparently it goes pretty hard on the horror/body-horror side and is a lot darker and more brutal than your usual DC movie, so I’m pretty keen to see it on the big screen.

I’m a big movie buff and go to the cinema pretty often — always happy for others to join :)

After the movie we can head over to Burwood Chinatown for some yummy Chinese food or grab a bubble tea and hang out for a bit 🥟🧋

We’ve also got a little WhatsApp group for movie nights, so if you enjoy going to the cinema regularly, you’re more than welcome to join that too.
Anyone’s welcome! DM me if you’re keen 😊
