Explore Melbourne is the largest meetup group in Australia. We have eight simple rules in place to protect our community and for everyone to have a positive experience.

❌ Not a dating group! – We’re here to make friends, not find soulmates. No flirty business, please!

📵 No phone numbers, please! – Feel free to swap social media if both parties are cool with it, but let’s keep our digits private. Please don’t add people to WhatsApp or other groups.

🔞 Our events are only open to people aged 18 and older.

📢 Please do not advertise other events or groups.

😅 Don’t be a social octopus! – Give people space to chat with others. Please don't be clingy.

🚗 We don't allow carpooling due to safety incidents/our public liability insurance not covering motor related accidents.

💰 No sales pitches! – No selling, no MLMs, no pyramid schemes, no “life-changing mentorship” offers—let’s keep things scam-free.

📸 Cameras welcome, but… – please refrain from taking photos of our members for privacy reasons.

By joining this event, you’re giving us a virtual pinky promise 🤝 that you’ll follow the rules. Break them, and—poof!—you’re out for good. No second chances, no do-overs. Let’s keep it fun, friendly, and drama-free!
