REAL CONNECTION

A NIGHT THAT STAYS WITH YOU

SYDNEY · 28 NOVEMBER 2026

An evening of meaningful conversations, genuine connection and new perspectives.

Join us for the Female First Sydney Dinner a chance to pause from the busyness of life, meet women with different perspectives, and discover what can happen when we make time for meaningful connection.

There's something powerful about being in a space where you don't have to perform, prove yourself or have all the answers. Where you can be curious, share openly and feel comfortable showing up exactly as you are.

That's the kind of evening we'd love to share with you.

The Female First Dinner is an invitation to be part of something a little different. No networking agenda, no expectations and no pressure to impress. Just a welcoming space to enjoy the evening, hear different perspectives and be yourself among women who each have a story of their own.

Pendolino · Strand Arcade

Join us for an intimate evening at The Restaurant Pendolino, nestled within Sydney's historic Strand Arcade.

Over a three-course Italian dinner, we'll slow down, settle into conversation and enjoy the company of the women around us.

Thoughtful reflection questions will invite us to share stories, explore ideas and connect beyond the everyday.

The table is only the beginning.
