Breakfast at The Atrium

Brekky’s on us once a month at The Atrium, your exclusive alumni lounge and co-working space in the heart of Brisbane’s CBD.

Drop-in on the last Thursday of the month for complimentary pastries, coffee and tea from 7.30–9am, with a different host each month.

Pick the host’s brains, say hello to some fellow alumni or just enjoy a quiet moment in this stunning heritage-listed space before starting your day.

You’re always welcome to bring a guest and have your first meeting of the day in The Atrium.

It’s free to attend – we just ask that you register to let us know you’re coming, so we can ensure we’ve catered for everyone.
