Women in Walrus

Overview

If you didn't know it was there, you could easy spend time at the Regatta without ever venturing downstairs to its underground speakeasy-style bar. But, once you've become acquainted with The Walrus Club, you'll want to add it to your cocktail-slinging go-tos.

Heading by from 6–8pm on Friday, March 8 is particularly recommended, because that's when the venue is celebrating International Women's Day. At the annual Women in Walrus event, an all-female bar takeover is on the cards, with the establishment's ladies mixing up the best beverages they can — in general, and also as part of a cocktail-making competition.

Entry costs $5, with the proceeds going to Share the Dignity, which helps combat period poverty. After that, you'll pay for whatever you drink and eat as the evening rolls by.

While women will be in the spotlight, anyone can attend this after-work drinks session to mark the occasion.
