About our Events
Turing Circle organises events relevant to LGBT+ individuals working or studying in STEM related fields here in Sydney.
Our regular event is our monthly Pub Social, where you can mix with like-minded scientists, engineers and technologists in a friendly and relaxed setting. You'll find us each time at a LGBT+-friendly venue in and around the inner city and inner west.
In addition, we also run a variety of other events both on weekends and weekday evenings, such as:
- our (very popular) pub trivia nights
- exhibition visits to art galleries and museums
- weekend brunch
- picnics / BBQ
- hikes
You can browse our previous events further down this page.
If you are elsewhere in Australia, and are interested in running a Turing Circle meetup in your city, please get in touch.
The best way to find out about our upcoming events and news is to subscribe to our monthly newsletter.
Thank you for subscribing!
Have a great day!
