Overview

There's a new ladies night in town, but it's a far cry from the sessions of budget bubbly and trashy tunes you've encountered elsewhere. Instead, Camperdown's Lady Hampshire is launching a monthly pub session sans-stereotypes, promising a safe, fun and inclusive space for all female-identifying and non-cis bodies.

Proudly dubbed See You Next Tuesday (it runs the second Tuesday of each month), the event taps into the pub's laidback vibe, yet offers a program of kickass, female-friendly activities to boot. We're talking beer yoga, dancehall classes, clothes swaps and drives for local women's shelters, intergenerational trivia and workshops with the likes of cake queen Katherine Sabbath.

It all kicks off with a launch party on Tuesday, November 14, featuring chats with City of Sydney councillor and founding Vivid Ideas curator Jess Scully, and MTV presenter and DJ Flex Mami. Sydney's all-girl Bad Bitch Choir will deliver a special performance, followed by more great tunes from DJ Nes.

The launch will also see a lineup of free tacos, along with complimentary Pimm's cocktails and Frank Strongs boozy lemonade, while the legendary Ab Fab ladies throw down words of wisdom from the big screens. You'll also catch the gloriously named Vadge Draw — $5 will get you entry into the monthly prize pool and your very own bronze clam keyring.
