Design Dinner Party 2026
A Design Dinner Party, co-hosted by Ladies that UX Melbourne x Design Party 🥂
2026 is nearly done, so LTUX Melb and the coolest meetup around the block, Design Party are getting together for dinner to share stories about the year that was.
It’s an intimate end-of-year dinner with Melbourne’s design community. We’ll sit down together and share good food and a drink or two.
We’ve kept seats limited, so tickets are paid upfront to hold your spot. Afterwards, anyone keen can join us at a nearby bar or dessert spot to keep the night going.
