\*\*Please note that **this event is not open for photographers** (no option to bring Camera/GoPro). Cameras and large tripods aren’t allowed due to past accidents that led to damaged cameras/lenses and injuries in the dark. We will be taking photos of people with the Stars. Feel free to bring a small tripod if you're using your smartphone for photos. Please note that you setup the tripod away from where the group shots are done.

With any Aurora Hunting events, the chance of spotting an Aurora is less than 5% as there are many factors involved. Please carry a warm jacket as it is expected to be very cold (7-9°C). This trip involves a shared uber/taxi besides train. We will form uber groups at the meeting point. The cost details can be found in the description below. Our events are only open to guests 18 years and older\*\*

Explore Melbourne is the largest meetup group in Australia with more than 42,000 members. We know these group rules won’t suit everybody, and that’s okay—there are many other groups where you might feel more at home. To keep things safe, fun, and positive, we have 8 simple rules for people attending our events. Over the past 9 years, we’ve removed 342 people (around 0.8%) for breaking them—so please read carefully!

❌ Not a dating group – We’re here to make friends and share experiences, not find soulmates.

📵 No phone numbers – You’re welcome to swap social media if you both agree, but please don’t share or ask for phone numbers. Please don’t add people to WhatsApp or other groups.

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

📢 No advertising – Please don’t promote other events, groups, or businesses here.

😅 Don’t be clingy – Give people space to mingle and chat with others too.

🚗 No carpooling – For safety reasons and insurance coverage, we don’t allow carpooling or ride-sharing through the group.

💰 No sales pitches – That means no selling, MLMs, pyramid schemes, or “life-changing mentorships.” Keep it scam-free.

By joining an event, you agree to follow these rules. Breaking them means removal from all our groups—no exceptions. Thank you!

The organizer of this group cannot accept any liability for any loss, damage, injury, or accident to participants or their property at this event.
