What we’re about
The BrisVegan meetup is a social group for like-minded people to come together to share food, ideas, knowledge and create community.
You don't have to be vegan to join but please only order vegan food at meetups and bring vegan suitable dishes to pot lucks etc. We would love to introduce you to how great vegan food can be!
Disclaimer: Please note that all events are simply outings of interested people. We are not an official club or association, and therefore participants are asked to take personal responsibility at events.
Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Vegan (middle level) boardgames @ Loving HutLoving Hut Brisbane, Mount Gravatt
We'll be meeting up for some delicious food and to play some medium+ difficulty boardgames in The Loving Hut, Mt Gravatt event space!
The Loving Hut are letting us use this space for free, so we want attendees to support them in return. The Loving Hut offers a wide range of food and snack options and is 100% vegan. Check out their menu and details.
The games change but examples of what we often play include Meadow, Wingspan, Segrada, Catan, Carcassonne, Harmonies and Splendour. These are slightly more involved games than the ones we play at our Vega event. This means the games usually take 30-90 mins each. We'll do our best to get you started as always.
If you want to bring your own games, we are very happy for you to join us and you can post them in the comments, ideally with a how-to-play video.
- Action for Animals, Activism Meetup @ Vega CafeVega Cafe, Spring Hill
Have a laptop? Want to make your voice heard for the animals? Then join us to take Action for Animals together!
We'll be meeting at the wonderful Vega in Spring Hill with our laptops/tablets/phones etc for some food / coffee etc, and to do some digital activism together – anything that creates a kinder world for animals, from fighting factory farming to protecting the planet we share.
What we do changes at each event, but our digital actions include signing petitions, writing to our political reps, making policy submissions, and any other forms of useful digital activism we come up with as a group.
We generally chat and enjoy a beverage for the first while and then get into the work after that.
Curious to see our previous actions (and catch up on any you missed)? Check out the spreadsheet here.
