**šŸ™‹ā€ā™€ļøšŸŒ LINGUAS Australia SPECIAL: 2 BARS • 1 NIGHT • 1 AMAZING EXPERIENCE! šŸ»šŸ”„** **This Tuesday, Linguas is doing something different!** **Instead of staying in one venue, we’re taking our international community on a special mini bar-hopping experience inside Melbourne Central.** **Two venues. Two different vibes. Hundreds of connections. And only a 30-second walk between them! šŸŒŽšŸ¤** **šŸ“ THE NIGHT** **🦁 STOP 1 — LION HOTEL** **ā° 6:00 PM – 8:15 PM** **šŸ“ Level 3, Melbourne Central** **This is where the night begins! Grab your language flags, meet people from around the world, practise languages and make some new friends.** **Then at 8:15 PM, we move together! šŸš¶ā€ā™€ļøšŸš¶ā€ā™‚ļøšŸŒ** **šŸ» STOP 2 — ASIAN BEER CAFE (ABC)** **ā° 8:15 PM – 10:30 PM** **šŸ“ Level 3, Melbourne Central** **ABC is literally around 30 seconds’ walk from Lion Hotel. No travelling across the city, no complicated directions — we simply move together to continue the night with a fresh atmosphere, more mingling, drinks and great vibes.** **šŸ†• FIRST TIME AT LINGUAS? PLEASE READ** **If you’re arriving between 6:00 PM and 8:15 PM:** **šŸ‘‰ Come directly to Lion Hotel, Level 3 Melbourne Central and look for the Linguas team and international flags.** **If you’re arriving after 8:15 PM:** **šŸ‘‰ Go directly to Asian Beer Cafe (ABC), Level 3 Melbourne Central.** **Both venues are on Level 3 of Melbourne Central and approximately 30 seconds apart, so don’t worry about the two locations — it’s extremely easy!** **Come alone or bring your friends. Coming alone is completely normal at Linguas — the whole idea is to meet people you didn’t know before.** **šŸŒŽ Meet internationals & locals** **šŸ—£ļø Practise languages** **šŸ¤ Make new friends** **šŸ» Experience two venues** **šŸŽ‰ Enjoy two different atmospheres** **ā¤ļø Become part of the Linguas community** **⭐ ONE COMMUNITY. TWO VENUES. ONE MEMORABLE NIGHT.** **Don’t think of it as two separate events — it’s one Linguas experience with two chapters.** **6:00 PM → Lion Hotel 🦁** **8:15 PM → Everyone moves together šŸš¶šŸŒ** **8:15–10:30 PM → Asian Beer Cafe šŸ»** **See you Tuesday — this one is going to be different! šŸ”„šŸŒ**
