My (M27) life has gotten a bit rough lately and I have nobody to talk to about it, anyone willing to keep me company for a little while? Im happy to listen to others problems as well.
Where are you meeting people in Brisbane? As an immigrant in Australia I find this so hard. Aussies seem to love going to the pub and drinking their weekends away - but seriously, in your 40’s a drink is nice, but it’s not your entire social calendar. Plus of course everyone my age has kids here. Where to meet people that are childfree, outgoing, and who have lived overseas for a decent chunk of their lives/ are fellow immigrants?
38m. Would anyone be interested in meeting to play a game of pub poker. They are Texas hold em and there is a buy in usually $20 and they're held at lots of pubs. I'm Northside based. I was thinking could go an hour before start and have a chat. I used to go a lot but anxiety has made it hard. Also would be keen to just create our own poker game if there was interest.
Hi all!! 38m in southern Brisbane/Logan area. My social circles have all but zeroed since people have married/kids etc, so just trying to build some circles. A bit of introvert has made it harder to get out. Not much into partying, don't drink. I'm more about just having good company with good people.
I love sports, board games, and a bit of a fandom fiend (LOTR, HP, Marvel etc). Often find myself watching big events by myself or not really having groups to talk with. Thought I'd put it out there to see if anyone is interested in maybe forming a bit of a sports chat (discord, WhatsApp - open to ideas) maybe go to games sometimes. I'm into Football, Rugby Union and League, Cricket, Tennis, Olympics - sorry just can't get into AFL, but all in on the Lions!!
Hey all 👋
IpswichSocials is live and running, and we’ve already got a couple of activities planned. If you live in the Ipswich region and are 18+, feel free to DM me for a Discord link.
This space is for us Ippy locals to make friends and explore our city (and yes, we will actually go outside Ipswich sometimes lol).
Looking for people who appreciate some good ambient lighting almost as much as a sneaky yo-chi on a weeknight
I’m based on the Gold Coast but up in Brisbane pretty often.
I’ve recently realised I get way too excited about apartment setups. Give me ambient lighting, the new Drake album, a gym session and a PS5 and I’m sorted.
If that’s your sort of vibe too, it’d be great to meet some like-minded people and network 🙏🏽🙂
Hi guys,
Been a long time lurker but always been a bit anxious to join any meetups. Myself (38m) and a few others from here have been trying to get together a group of those also dealing with social anxiety to be able to practice social skills with light exposure (like saying hello to a stranger) and hopefully make some friends along the way. We currently meet around the city/south bank area; have a chat/coffee and catch up, then go around and practice a bit of social anxiety exposure. If anyone is interested let me know.
👻 seeking fellow people who love the paranormal 👻
This is a bit random but I (24F) wanted to see if there were other people who love all that goes bump in the night, horror movies, and spooky documentaries.
Possibly start a discord server where we can do screenings, have discussions, and even go on ghost tours.
If you’re interested (18+ people only), either comment below or shoot me a dm.
💜
Server invite ^^
👋Recently moved from NZ and been here nearly a year. 26M, struggling to make new friends and dating has been hard since I got here.
For context. I work in the city full time and on the weekends I don’t do much besides gym, fishing and exploring Brisbane.
Anyone keen to hang out let me know💯
Hey everyone!
Would anyone be interested in joining an Ipswich social group?
The idea is to get together once a week and do a variety of activities things like hiking, bowling, board games, coffee, markets, trivia, or whatever people are interested in.
We'll post events about a month in advance, so you can come along to whichever ones suit your schedule and interests. There'll also be a Discord server so we can chat, suggest ideas, and organise everything.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, let me know! I'd love to get a friendly community together and meet some new people.
We’ve got a fun, welcoming group playing both rebound beach and indoor volleyball each week. It’s a great fit if you want to stay active, meet some genuinely lovely people, and play a social sport that still gives you a bit of an adrenaline hit.
We play:
🏖️** Rebound Beach Volleybal**l– Mondays at Coorparoo
🏐 **Indoor Volleyball** – Tuesdays at Kedron
• Division 2 – competitive
• Division 3 – more social
And for anyone who also plays **netball**, our Thursday night team at South Bank is looking for one extra girl who can play C or **GA** and help out in the shooting circle when needed 🏐
**The vibe:**
✨ Friendly mixed teams with a good balance of laughs and competitiveness
✨ Experienced players are very welcome — we have higher-division teams for people who have played plenty of volleyball
✨ Also beginner-friendly, especially if you’re sporty, active, coordinated, or just keen to learn
✨ Ages range from around 16–50, with a genuinely easygoing and inclusive group
✨ Volleyball is $17.50 per game, with start times between 6–9pm
✨ Flexible attendance — life happens, so missing the occasional week is completely fine and we usually have enough players to cover
We also catch up outside sport from time to time, so it’s a nice way to meet new people as well as get moving during the week.
If you’ve been thinking about getting back into a team sport, trying something new, or finding a fun and social way to be active during the week, send me a DM 😊🏐
Just looking for friends like bruh it gets so lonely but yea anyways it’d be cool to find people from Brisbane preferably Southside.
As for hobbies icl I’m pretty basic just gaming, music and tv series.
CBD drinks, walks, dinners
Hey! I'm a 32F, working corporate, based in the CBD, looking to build some new friendships since most of my close friends have moved overseas, partnered up or had babies.
I'm curious, creative, and keen to meet kind, interesting people for after-work drinks, dinners, or wandering around the inner city. Male or female, doesn't matter to me, just genuinely open to good company.
Must be child-free and ideally living or working inner-city too as I'm not really looking to trek out to the suburbs for catch-ups. Comment or DM if keen!
Edit:
Let's hang out - Pig n Whistle (Eagle Street), Wednesday the 15th at 5:30pm.
Thank you to everybody who messaged and commented. It's beautifully overwhelming. (I'm so sorry if I haven't gotten back to you. I am playing catch up.)
To be explicitly clear i'm not looking for anything more than platonic friendships. I will not be responding to messages that are flirtatious or have flat out stated you are seeking a relationship.
Thanks!
Hi everyone. 38F, introvert that enjoys spending quality time on the weekend with my dogs! I have a greyhound and whippet that would love some fellow doggy friends to go on walks with. I am northside, and usually like to walk Sandgate and Redcliffe, but open to ideas!

Hi guys! I'm a 24F from Italy, and I'll be spending six months in Brisbane starting late October to write my Master's thesis at UQ. I don't know anyone in the city yet, so I'd love to connect with fellow students or locals around my age to chat, exchange tips, and grab a drink or coffee when I land. If you're down to chat send me a message!!!
