Saturday 23 May 2026

## A SATURDAY NIGHT TO ACTUALLY CONNECT
There's a place in St Kilda where sunflowers hang from the ceiling, the garden feels like a secret you've stumbled into, and the night just slows down a little.
That's where we're hosting Kismetrix Social โ our most relaxed evening, designed for singles who want real conversation, good company, and a Saturday night that actually feels like one.
Think less "dating event"โฆ more a Saturday night you'd actually choose to go out for.
## ๐ซ ABOUT THE EVENT
Tired of dating apps that go nowhere? Over environments that feel forced or awkward? So were we.
KISMETRIX \| True Connection was created for people who want something more human โ real conversation\, real presence\, genuine connection\.
You'll walk into a room full of people who:
๐ป Are open to meeting others
๐ป Enjoy good conversation and social energy
๐ป Prefer real-life interaction over apps
๐ป Are simply here for a good, intentional night out
Come for a drink. Stay for the vibe. See where the night goes.
## ๐ป THE VIBE

๐ป A welcome drink in your hand within a minute of arriving
๐ป A warm, hosted welcome so nobody walks in feeling lost
๐ป Hosted introductions early in the evening to help conversations get started
๐ป Free-flowing mingling with light support from our hosts throughout the night
๐ป Conversation prompts on each table, if the room needs them
๐ป A relaxed, social crowd of intentional singles
No rotations. No forced formats. No hookup-bar energy. Just a thoughtfully designed night under the sunflowers, with people who actually want to meet someone.
## ๐ฅ AGE GUIDE: 28โ45
Kismetrix Social is open to all singles who care about meaningful connection. We provide an age guide so you know what to expect โ most of our guests will fall within this range.
The focus of our events is intentional people, not strict age groups. If you're slightly outside this range and the format feels right for you, you're welcome to book.

๐ป Prefer a relaxed, social way to meet people
๐ป Enjoy conversation without forced formats
๐ป Want something more grounded than the apps
๐ป Appreciate good venues, good drinks, good company
๐ป Are open, friendly, and easy-going
Come solo or with a friend โ most people come solo. You'll be in good company.
## ๐ฝ๏ธ FOOD & DRINKS
Your ticket includes a welcome drink on arrival.
Secret Garden has a great food and drinks menu throughout the night, available directly from the venue. Perfect if you'd like to make a full evening of it โ and many of our guests do.

Many guests come "just for a drink"โฆ and end up staying all night.
## โจ WHERE KISMETRIX SOCIAL FITS
Kismetrix Social is our most accessible event โ a relaxed, hosted evening for singles who want real connection without the structure of our Elevated Evenings or the formality of our Dinners.
It's the easiest way to experience how we do things, and many guests go on to join our other events from here.
## ๐ IMPORTANT NOTES

*Looking to meet new people, explore nature, and have a good laugh along the way?*
This is your perfect Sunday plan! ๐
Weโre excited to invite you to our upcoming Melbourne Social Hike. A welcoming day out where the focus is all about fun, friendships and fresh air. Whether you come solo or bring a mate, youโll leave with new connections and memories!
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**๐ Carpooling Makes It Happen**
At Social Hikes Australia, carpooling is a big part of what makes our hikes possible. Every extra seat means another person gets to join. Fewer cars, easier logistics, and a more social, fun start to the day.
Carpooling is also a great way to meet people before the hike even begins, share a few laughs, get to know each other, and arrive together. Itโs simple, social, and one of the best parts of the experience ๐ฟ
๐ก Carpool tickets are offered at a discounted price to encourage drivers to offer seats and make the hikes accessible for everyone.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
๐ **For Drivers**
If youโve got spare seats, offering a lift makes a big difference. It helps others join, reduces parking stress and makes the ride more enjoyable from the start.
๐ **For Passengers**
Passengers are to contact drivers directly using the details provided in the carpool sheet (linked at the top of the description). The sheet shows information from carpooler tickets (Drivers Offering Seats).
โจ **Best practice:** Try to organise your ride before purchasing a ticket to avoid last-minute stress.
**Please note:** Drivers and passengers should stick to the arrangements they make. We do not recommend swapping drivers or cars after youโve agreed on a ride. If you do decide to change, please make sure all parties are clearly informed and agree to avoid confusion.
If a driver forgets, gets mixed up, or doesnโt pick you up, Social Hikes Australia (and your driver) are **not liable** for any inconvenience caused. For this reason, it is best to keep things simple with the driver you first arranged with.
โ ๏ธ **Important Notes**
* Please stick with the carpool arrangement you agree on.
* Avoid swapping drivers unless everyone is clearly informed and agrees.
* Petrol, parking, and other costs are not included in the ticket price. These should be agreed directly between the driver and passengers.
* Social Hikes Australia is not responsible for any issues with private carpool arrangements.
๐ **Pick-Up Info**
Drivers will share their preferred pick-up locations, such as major CBD train stations like Parliament, Richmond, South Yarra, Southern Cross, or North Melbourne.
For this hike, **the nearest station to the trail i**s [Pakenham](https://maps.app.goo.gl/QcwJAMKQJXzxTQWz9 "https://maps.app.goo.gl/QcwJAMKQJXzxTQWz9"), though drivers choose whichever spot is most convenient for them. Passengers can then join from those locations.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
**๐คฉ Why Join?**
๐ Make new friends in a relaxed, casual way.
๐Enjoy nature and fresh air while meeting like-minded people your age
๐Friendly vibes full of laughs, chats and good times guaranteed
๐You never know. Todayโs hiking buddy could be tomorrowโs uni mate, housemate, or travel buddy!
๐Your safety is our priority. Equipped with a first aid kit on hand.

๐ฝ๏ธ **Food Arrangement**
After our hike, we love keeping the good vibes rolling with a meal together. Weโll suggest a cafรฉ or restaurant thatโs usually on the way back toward the city,y so itโs easy for everyone and avoids extra driving.
Itโs always a highlight of the day swapping stories from the trail, sharing laughs, and getting to know your fellow hikers even better over some good food.
Joining is optional, but most people stick around because itโs such a fun way to finish the adventure. Everyone just covers their own meal, and weโll confirm the spot in the Instagram group chat on the day.
When booking, youโll be asked if youโd like to join: Yes / No / Not Sure. The organisers will confirm the restaurant or bar on the day, based on feedback.
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-

Hike at your own risk. You are responsible for your own safety and belongings.
Respectful, kind behaviour is a must. We are a positive and welcoming community.

Having AllTrails ensures everyone can enjoy the hike safely and confidently.

Drunken Philosophy: Whatโs up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion
**Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?**
A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad.
My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one.
Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it?
I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction.
Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends.
No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.

Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Hereโs a description, trailer and plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor.
BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this yearโs Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it โa sure-fired crowd-pleaserโ that โjust might be the feel-good hit of the year!โ Others say, โPaul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmerโ thatโs both โhilarious and deeply moving!โ
SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus in 2024, this is the perfect place to kick off our Summer of Ice Cream and grab a sweet treat after the show! Their menu features an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, and more! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php)
PLAN: Weโll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised! Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. We'll head to nearby Shake No. 8 immediately following the show!
Should be a fun one, Dan
