Newcomers Network Events
Newcomers Network hosts a variety of online and offline events.
Our first events started in May 2001 when we launched Newcomers Network at the Victorian Arts Centre in Melbourne, Australia.
We ran a variety of different events and forums before starting monthly events in the cities of Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane from 2004 up until November 2015.
We stopped temporarily in November 2015 because so many people registered but then did not show up and this was very disappointing for our volunteer city hosts. Sue Ellson, our Founder and Director also wrote and published her first three 80,000 word books in 2016!
But the good news is that the free Living, Working and Networking events started again in Melbourne, from 9 August 2017 – on the second Wednesday of every month.
2020 converted us to online events that are designed for all people who live, work or network in Australia. They are held on the second Wednesday of every month from 8:00pm Melbourne time.

Christmas Day BYO (Bring Your Own) Picnic Lunches
On 25 December 2006, Newcomers Network hosted a bring your own picnic lunch event in Catani Gardens, St Kilda (Victoria) and in 2007, we moved to the Queen Victoria Gardens next to St Kilda Road and opposite the Victorian Arts Centre.
In 2011, we started co-hosting the event with Ian Wood from the Fun, Food and Friendship Melbourne Social Club. In 2020, we couldn’t meet as a large group so we hosted an online Christmas Catch up via Zoom. We have now hosted 15 consecutive Christmas Day events in Melbourne.
We also hosted annual Christmas Day BYO Picnic lunches in Sydney from 2010 – 2016, Perth from 2010 – 2015, Brisbane from 2011 – 2016 and Adelaide from 2013 – 2017.
