Summer Fruits

New year. Fresh connections. Summer Fruits is back! What better way to kick off 2027 than with good company, great conversations and a drink or two? Join the Pride Business Association (NSW) for our first Fruits Sydney of the year as we return to Sydney Cidery at Rydges World Square for a special summer edition of our much-loved networking event. Whether you're reconnecting with familiar faces after the summer break, looking to grow your professional network or keen to meet some new people, Summer Fruits is the perfect opportunity to start the year on a high. We'll be bringing together LGBTQIA+ business owners, professionals, entrepreneurs, community members and allies for a relaxed evening of networking, drinks and canapés, with happy-hour pricing available throughout the event and some great door prizes to be announced. Fruits has always been about bringing people together and creating opportunities for genuine connections. You never know who you might meet, from a future collaborator or client to a new friend. If you're coming along for the first time, or attending on your own, our friendly team will be there to welcome you and help you feel at home. Everyone is welcome at Fruits! ------------- TICKETS PBA Members: FREE entry and FREE drink on arrival. You will need to be logged in to access your ticket. Non-Members: FREE entry.
