It’s an interesting conversation to have! While Australia has a strong drinking culture, especially in social settings, the rise of dry events definitely reflects shifting attitudes towards alcohol consumption. Many people are recognizing that not everyone drinks, whether for personal, health, or cultural reasons.

Ultimately, it’s about striking a balance. While many may still enjoy traditional events with alcohol, there’s certainly room for dry events to coexist and even thrive. Embracing diversity in how we celebrate and gather could lead to a richer social fabric. What do you think? Are you open to more dry events in the future?
