What we’re about
Noosa Social Connections is a social group attending fun events and activities in and around Noosa from comedy, to live music and dancing, theatre, festivals and celebrations such as Melbourne Cup.
Rather than going to ticketed events on your own, being part of a group of people with common interests is much more fun and less daunting, especially comedy where laughter is contagious. Plus you have others to hit the dance floor with!
So if you are over 40 and single, a fun couple, new to the area, on holiday or just looking to expand your friendship groups and enjoy local live events, then Noosa Social Connections is for you.
Our other Meetup Groups include:
- Noosa Wellbeing Experiences - local wellbeing events from mindfulness and meditation to day and weekend retreats, wellness festivals, conscious dance, yoga, books, films and more: https://www.meetup.com/noosa-wellbeing-experiences/
- Walk With Wisdom - blending physical activity with professional and personal development, with a focus on business growth, physical health and mental wellbeing: https://www.meetup.com/noosa-walk-with-wisdom/
- We also partner with Noosa Healthy Walk and Talk hosted by David, John, Pat and Roger with activities such as weekly national park and river walks: https://www.meetup.com/noosa-heads-healthy-living-meetup/ They also hold weekly drinks for active members.
Feel free to forward the link to any singles, solos or fun couples to join us. We are especially welcoming to menwho often don't get out to these sort of events but also benefit from expanding their social connections: https://www.meetup.com/noosa-social-connections
Also, if you come across any interesting events, please feel free to message me.
Yours in fun and friendship,
Stacey
