✨ **KISMETRIX \| True Connection** [Ticketed Event](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/june-14-blackwood-social-afternoon-drinks-for-singles-windsor-tickets-1990554475019) ### **Blackwood Social - Afternoon Drinks for Singles** **📍 Blackwoods Wine & Cocktail Bar — 137 Chapel Street, Windsor** **📅 Sunday, 14 June 2026 · 2:00 PM – 5:00 PM** **🥂 Standard drink on arrival included** **Somewhere along the way, meeting people got lonely.** The apps turned connection into a catalogue. The bar scene stopped feeling worth it. Your social circle calcified in your late twenties and nobody told you how to crack it back open. You're not anti-social. You're not too picky. You're just waiting for a room that actually feels worth walking into. This is that room. #### BLACKWOOD SOCIAL Kismetrix doesn't run singles nights. We build the kind of afternoon where you walk in not knowing a soul — and walk out wondering why Sunday ever looked like anything else. Blackwoods Wine & Cocktail Bar in Windsor is the setting. Unhurried. Intimate. The kind of place that makes conversation feel easy before you've even tried. Our host will be there from the moment you arrive — not to run activities or move you around the room, but to make sure nobody spends their first five minutes standing alone wondering if they've made a mistake. You haven't. We've got you. Name tags on. Guard down. Drink in hand. See what happens. #### WHO THIS IS FOR Professionals and creatives aged 28–42 who are socially confident but privately a little tired of how hard it's become to meet people who actually get it. People who want a relationship, or a friend, or just proof that their city still has interesting humans in it. Most guests come alone. That's not the exception here — that's the point. #### WHAT YOU'RE WALKING INTO 🥂 Standard drink waiting for you on arrival 🍸 Full cocktail and wine menu at one of Windsor's best bars 👋 Name tags — because remembering someone's name is the beginning of everything 🤝 A host who genuinely cares how you feel in the room 📍 Cosy indoors + heated courtyard out back #### WHAT PEOPLE LEAVE WITH Sometimes it's a number. Sometimes it's a new regular at your table. Sometimes it's just the feeling — quiet but real — that your people are out there and you've started finding them. Kismetrix is where that starts. #### TICKETS - [Book Here](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/june-14-blackwood-social-afternoon-drinks-for-singles-windsor-tickets-1990554475019) 🌿 Early Bird — $29 (first to go — always) 🌿 Standard — $45 Early bird pricing won't last. Grab yours before it moves. #### IMPORTANT NOTES 🎯 This is a hosted social experience — not speed dating 🎯 A welcome drink is included; additional drinks and food are available at the venue 🎯 Gender balance is carefully aimed for but not always guaranteed 🎯 Respect, boundaries, and good energy are essential at all Kismetrix events 🎯 Tickets are non-refundable but transferable KISMETRIX reserves the right to manage attendance and participation, including declining or removing entry where necessary, to ensure a positive and respectful experience for all guests. #### ABOUT KISMETRIX Kismetrix is Melbourne's premium real-life connection experience — built on the belief that the most important relationships in your life will not begin with a swipe. Every event is intentionally designed, warmly hosted, and quietly obsessed with how it feels to be in the room. We're building something bigger than events. We're building the community Melbourne didn't know it was missing. 📧 [social@kismetrix.com.au]() 🌐 [www.kismetrix.com.au](http://www.kismetrix.com.au "http://www.kismetrix.com.au") 📱 Follow us on Instagram, Facebook & Eventbrite By attending, guests agree to the Kismetrix Code of Conduct: kismetrix.com.au/code-of-conduct

The rhythm of a run. The fresh air. The shared effort. The way conversation just... flows. That's exactly why we created this. Kismetrix has teamed up with **Pun & Gainz** — Melbourne-based personal trainers who believe fitness is as much about community as it is about movement — for our first ever **Run Club Social** at the beautiful Albert Park Lake. This isn't a race. It isn't a gym class. It's a relaxed, social Sunday morning run for singles who want to meet real people, in real life, doing something they actually enjoy. #### **🏃 WHAT TO EXPECT** * A PT-led warm up to get you moving and feeling good before we set off * A relaxed run around Albert Park Lake (approx. 3–4 km) at your own pace * Natural pace groups form as you go — runners with runners, walkers with walkers, and everything in between * A supported walk/run option for those who prefer a gentler pace — you're in good company and you'll still see the whole lake * Everyone meets at the Boatshed Cafe at the end — this is where the morning really comes alive * Hot drink included, conversation flows naturally, no awkward formats needed * Coming solo is completely normal — most people do #### **💛 WHO THIS IS FOR** This event is for singles who: * Enjoy being active and want to meet people in a natural setting * Are curious about running or already love it — all paces genuinely welcome * Prefer real-life connection over dating apps and loud venues * Want to be part of a growing community, not just attend a one-off event * Are open to friendship, connection, or something more — without it being the whole point All adult singles welcome, across a wide range of ages. Come solo — most people do. #### **✨ ABOUT THE COLLABORATION** Pun & Gainz are Melbourne personal trainers who bring energy, expertise, and genuine warmth to every session. They believe the best workouts happen when people feel good together — and that's exactly what Kismetrix is built on. Two communities. One Sunday morning. A shared belief that showing up — in fitness and in life — is where everything begins. #### **📋 WHAT TO BRING** * Comfortable running or walking shoes * Water bottle * Sunscreen & a light layer (June mornings can be crisp) * An open, easy-going mindset 💛 #### **🎟️ [TICKETS](https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/jun-14-run-club-x-pun-gainz-move-connect-meet-at-albert-tickets-1990309261579?aff=oddtdtcreator)** 🌿 Introductory Price: $10 🌿 Introductory Last minutes Price: $20 — includes 1 standard hot beverage after the run. *This is our first Run Club Social with Pun & Gainz. Introductory pricing reflects that — and won't last.* #### **🔔 IMPORTANT NOTES** * Adults only, singles welcome across all ages * No children or dogs — this helps keep the space comfortable and social for everyone * Please arrive by 8:45 AM — we move off at 9:00 AM and cannot hold the group * Tickets are non-refundable but transferable * This is a social connection experience — outcomes are never guaranteed * Kismetrix reserves the right to manage attendance to ensure a respectful, welcoming environment for all #### **🔗 STAY CONNECTED WITH KISMETRIX \| TRUE CONNECTION** 📧 social@kismetrix.com.au 🌐 www.kismetrix.com.au 📱 Instagram: @kismetrix_ \| Facebook \| Eventbrite 🤝 Collaborations: collabs@kismetrix.com.au 📄 By registering\, you confirm you have read and agree to Kismetrix \| True Connection's Terms & Conditions\, Privacy Policy\, Disclaimer and Code of Conduct\.

Our monthly Northern social is held at Moon Dog World in Preston. Moon Dog World is a brewery, restaurant and bar with a lagoon, waterfall, hidden tiki bar and much more! Atmosphere is on the family restaurant side (dogs and kids a plenty!) but still a fun tropical style environment. Food is better than standard pub fare with exotic flavours and generous serves. Fun for pretty much everyone, so come along and enjoy it with us. Do you live in the Northern or perhaps even the Western suburbs and are interested in catching-up with like minded people? Come along for dinner and meet some friendly people. Our group is informal and open to all. We pay for own food and drinks individually and there is no charge for the organisation of the events. It is a great opportunity to meet others with an emphasis on fun and supporting each other. So whether you choose to come at the start for dinner or later on for drinks, we hope to see you. If something comes up and you can no longer make it, then you can easy change your RSVP to not going. I am looking forward to catching up with those who can make it, Chris

Hi Radiant Ladies, After our morning walk, come and join us at Windchimes Café for coffee, warm conversation, and a lovely relaxed catch-up with your favourite ladies! 🅿️ Easy 2-hour parking right out front. See you there! Lyn ☕💓
