Join your Melbourne travel community for football / soccer and cheers ⚽️🍻

Hi there, Melbourne travel and tourism community friends!

Justin and Casey here, we have taken over the reins of the Melbourne chapter of Travel Massive, and would love to have you join us for a few casual bevvies on July 01, 2026 at The Waterside on Flinders St. This event is open to anyone working in the travel and tourism industry in MEL.

Travel Massive is the world's largest network of passionate people who work, live and breathe travel. With chapters in more than 100 cities, its aim is to connect people in real life to share stories and ideas about how travel can positively impact peoples' lives. Thank you for being a part of our community and for (hopefully) joining us at this event.

🌏🏆 The world is what we all love, so we're aligning this to, hopefully, watch some decent World Cup football (soccer!) at the new Waterside pub on Flinders. They have screens and likely replays, but nothing will stop the banter.

📍 508 Flinders St, Melbourne VIC 3000
🗓️ Wednesday 01 July, 2026
🕕 6.00pm - 8.30pm

🍻About The Waterside: At the corner of King and Flinders, this seven-level destination blends the soul of a classic pub with the spirit of global adventure from the Public Bar to South-East Asian dining and rooftop cocktails. Newly reopened in November 2025 following an eight-year closure, The Waterside has been a Flinders St icon since 1925.

It will be a cash bar. Please, if you know of any companies / brands that have a message to share, and are keen to support our local chapter of passionate travel peeps via sponsorship, we are all ears :)

Best and hope to see you there
— Casey and Justin
