Culture Café

Learn new cultures

and make new friends

WHAT IS CULTURE CAFE

Here at Culture Cafe, we provide ALL students with a platform to meet new people, make new friends and learn about cultures from around the world! Whether you’re already from Sydney, an international student or it’s your term abroad, everyone is welcome to our Culture Café sessions.

Join us every Thursday of the term from 4-6 pm to explore cultures through trivia, traditional games, crafts and food.

We also hold massive flagship events throughout the year, so keep an eye out for new events on the horizon.

Follow us on Facebook to stay in the loop about our weekly sessions and everything that we do!

Why you'll love Culture Café

  • Celebrate diversity on campus: experience traditions, games, languages and customs in a fun, casual space.

  • Share your own culture: a chance to teach others about where you’re from.
