Hotel Alba

Ladies, gents and all those in between, it’s time. After a sell-out “anti-corporate” International Women’s Day last year, we’re back! And we’re doing it all again, this time with a different but even more fun format.

We’re still saying no to corporate stuffiness.
We’re still not into tick-box inclusivity.
We’re still bringing you good times with the gals and guys in the creative comms industry.
We’re still passionate about a great value event that doesn’t break the bank.

But this time we’re returning to one of our favourite chic spots, the gorgeous Hotel Alba, for a lingering three-course long lunch and bottomless bevvies to share the power of…

 

Joy
Awareness
Connection
Inspiration
Support
Women

 

With keynote speaker Kellie Finlayson; fierce co-host of the Shittalkers Podcast, cancer battler, Jodi Lee Foundation ambassador and all-round inspirational powerhouse coming to chat, we know you’ll find power in awareness and inspiration.

Sitting poolside and yapping with old and new creative friends over delicious food and free-flowing drinks, you’ll feel the power of connection.

With our very own DJ coming to add to the vibes (and maybe even get a d floor going) you’ll find power in joy.

And we’ve got incredible raffle prizes to get your little mitts on, with proceeds going to the Jodi Lee Foundation, so you’re absolutely going to feel the power of supporting others.

 

 

Where: Poolside at Hotel Alba, 226 South Terrace, Adelaide
When: Friday 28 February
Time: 12pm -3pm (but we’ll be staying on after if you will too!)
Ticket includes: Three course lunch, drinks package with bottomless prosecco, mimosa, gin spritz, tap beers & soft drink, and the opportunity to hear from our inspiring keynote speaker
Cost:
AADC / She Creates Members Ticket = $99
Non-Member Ticket = $149
Ticket + She Creates Membership = $124 (membership usually valued at $50)

 

We’re raising yet another (bottomless) She Creates glass to the power of women this International Women’s Day. So set your Out of Office, tell your boss you won’t be coming back to the office afterwards… or better yet, bring them with you! We can’t wait for you to join us. Let’s party.
