Club Sup - Book Swap (Melbourne)

In a world where digital interactions often replace real ones, Club Sup is redefining the way we gather. More than just a supper club, it’s a modern third place—a space outside of work and home where people can connect, unwind, and build meaningful friendships.

Born out of the 2020 lockdowns, Club Sup began in March 2021 with 12 strangers sharing a meal. What started as intimate dinners has since grown into a thriving community, with over 100 events across Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, bringing together more than 1,000 people. Today, our gatherings go beyond supper, offering unique experiences like Book Swap, Lunch Club, and 40+ Lunch Club.

We've partnered with brands like Ganni, The Ordinary, and The Shameless Book Club to create experiences rooted in curiosity, warmth, and a shared love for food—the ultimate unifier. Each event is designed as a much-needed pause from the fast pace of modern life, a chance to engage in meaningful conversation, step outside comfort zones, and forge lasting connections.

At Club Sup, phones are put aside in favor of real conversations, nervous introductions turn into laughter, and strangers leave as friends. The magic starts at the table, but the connections extend far beyond—into impromptu pub meetups, Sunday night dinners, and Friday night drinks.

Club Sup isn’t just about events—it’s about creating a true third place, where community, belonging, and connection thrive.
