WELCOME TO

Queer Events Melbourne

Looking for queer events in Melbourne that go deeper than a night out? Tender Core creates queer and FLINTA-centred gatherings where you can connect, be seen and explore touch, intimacy and self-expression in a safe, consent-first community.

Our events are not party spaces. They are guided experiences designed to help you soften, play and melt into queer community intimacy, whether you come solo, with a friend or with a partner.

Tender Core events in Melbourne

Melb Touch Portal: a pop-up queer soft-core pleasure experience focusing on platonic and sensual touch for women and the FLINTA community.

Topless Open Mic: a women's and queer-centred space to practise being seen, normalise our bodies and cultivate comfort, creativity and self-expression while topless.

Workshops and retreats: group workshops and retreats exploring pleasure, touch, receiving and embodiment.

  • TOPLESS OPEN MIC

    (NEW EVENT)

    SATURDAY MARCH 7th 2026, Preston.

    This is a Women’s and queer-centred space

    The intention is simple and radical:

    -To practice being semi-nude together

    -To practice being seen in intimacy

    -To normalise our bodies

    -To gently desexualise bodies

    -To cultivate comfort, creativity, and self-expression while topless

    If we want to love our bodies more, we must practice being with them — sharing them, showing them, and creating with them. HOSTED BY QUINN KUSH.

Testimonials

  • Thank yoooou! Had such a loved up evening, already feeling the magic of tender core, we are so gooey and slow now with our affection, was so special to have that experience for us to drop deeper.

    - Nix

  • Thanks for another beautiful session last night. You offered me an edge and made me feel safe enough to go over it. Thank you for witnessing me and for also creating such a sacred space where I can meet myself and dive into pleasure. The mango was just divine.

    - Sam

  • Thanks for creating such a safe and nurturing space to connect in to my needs of care and touch. I felt honoured and held like never before and it was quite an emotional and transformative experience.
