About us
Melbourne Global Circle is a social group for people from around the world who are living, studying, working, or spending time in Melbourne and want to meet new people and build genuine friendships.
It’s especially for international students, people on temporary visas, working holiday makers, expats, recent arrivals, and anyone who is still finding their social circle in Melbourne. If you're a local, you're also welcome to join us!
Moving to a new city or country can be exciting, but it can also feel lonely at times. You might know people from work or university, but still want a real group of friends to grab coffee with, explore Melbourne, go for a walk, or make weekend plans.
That’s what this group is for.
We organise relaxed social activities around Melbourne, including:
☕ Coffee and brunch catch-ups
🚶 Social walks
🏖️ Beach walks and beach days
🥾 Hiking and outdoor adventures
🍽️ Casual dinners
🍻 Drinks and nights out
💃 Social dancing
🎉 Weekend activities
🌏 Cultural and social events
🗺️ Exploring different parts of Melbourne
You don’t need to know anyone before coming, and you definitely don’t need to bring a friend.
Many people will be coming alone, especially if they’re new to Melbourne, so we want our events to feel friendly, casual and easy to join.
You also don’t need to be super outgoing. If you’re a little shy, introverted, or just nervous about meeting a room full of new people, that’s completely fine.
The goal is simple:
Meet people from different backgrounds, make new friends, explore Melbourne, and make this city feel a little more like home.
You might have just arrived in Australia, you might have been here for a few years, or you might simply enjoy meeting people from different cultures.
Locals are welcome too.
Come for a coffee, a walk, a night out, or an adventure around Melbourne.
You might arrive knowing nobody.
Hopefully, you leave with a few new friends and some plans for next weekend.
Melbourne Global Circle — different countries, one city, new friendships.
