About Linguas
Language exchange, social events and real-world connection
Linguas Australia runs recurring language exchange and social events in Melbourne. The community is designed to make it easier to practise languages, meet international people, make new friends and feel more connected to the city.
You do not need to be fluent in another language to join. People come to practise English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish and other languages — while many simply come because they want to meet new people.
Coming alone is normal. First-time attendees can visit reception, collect a wristband and ask the hosts where to start.

Why people come
More than just language practice
Language gives people an easy reason to start talking. The community is what keeps them coming back.
Make friends
Meet people without the pressure of formal networking or having to arrive with a group.
Meet internationals
Connect with locals, students, travellers and people from different cultures across Melbourne.
Come back weekly
Recurring events mean familiar faces, new people and more chances to build real friendships.
