Creators Catch-up @ Circus Circus – Coffee, Ideas & Collaboration

Circus in Mt Eden

A casual meetup for Aucklanders building something on the side - whether it's a business, a start-up, or an idea that won't leave you alone. Everyone here is welcome. 🙌

What to expect:

☕️ Coffee-fueled chats (or whatever drink you fancy) with fellow creatives, freelancers and founders.
💬 Zero cringe networking - just real convos with good people.
📣 Share your side hustle (or come get inspired to start one).
🙆‍♂️ Let's keep it light - we're not here to sell you anything. (if you're just here for the coffee that's all good too 😂)
💪 Expand your network. If you're sick of your boss and your workmates or just want to meet new people, this is the event you've been waiting for.

📍Location: Gillis Café, 143 Carlton Gore Road, Newmarket, Auckland 1023

This is a FREE event but let's support local and purchase something at the cafe. A little bit goes a long way for them too.

So grab a drink, have a seat and let's chat!
