TMG 2027 tickets about to drop… are you ready?

19/10/2026

Join us for a free, laid-back Sea Shanty night. All welcome.

No singing ability required, no solos, no judgement - just good laughs, great company, and the joy of making song together. Being tone deaf may be an advantage 🤷🏻‍♂️

7pm Wednesday 21st October
Upstairs at the Hope and Anchor, Hobart.

(Here is a small clip of some of the men performing last year). Don’t worry, there will be no microphone! Some of us grab a meal downstairs before we start.

Are YOU this year’s kitchen coordinator? Do you hear the calling? If so, please contact us, or Nick Hall direct.

As TMG approaches, we invite you to embark on a transformative journey as a volunteer, helping us to create an unforgettable experience at the gathering.

We are currently seeking a few men for the kitchen. These men get free access to the TMG, but their primary focus is working with the kitchen team to ensure a culinary success.

Every year, a team of dedicated volunteers selflessly supports new men in discovering the magic of our gathering.

Men from all walks of life contribute their unique talents as part of the set up crew, group leaders, care team, kitchen crew, gate keepers and content team.

If you've been inspired by a TMG in the past, we encourage you to pay it forward this year.

Contact us for more information and visit our website to explore the countless ways you can make a difference.

Grief is Love

Every man carries loss, whether for a parent, a lover, an unrealised dream or a neglected part of himself. It's natural not to want to feel grief fully, but the walls that keep grief out also keep life out.
The journey begins by creating a safe container, then uses fire and warrior energy to activate the body and break down those walls. In the deep place beyond, each man is invited to turn toward his loss and discover that where there's grief, there's love.

Welcome to the theme for the next TMG.

This survey is still open.

Male voices and perspectives are often missing from policy conversations, so please share your perspectives if you have experienced cancer, or supported someone with cancer. Men's Resources Tasmania (MRT) is preparing a submission on behalf of boys and men across Tasmania into the Tasmanian Cancer Strategy.

Cancer affects nearly all of us either directly or indirectly — 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women will be diagnosed in their lifetime — and this is your chance to help shape future priorities for the people in your life and for Tasmanians more broadly.

Thanks for taking a few minutes to inform MRT advocacy for male experiences of cancer.

Men’s work doesn’t stop with men.

The Tasmanian Men’s Gathering is a space for men. A place to step away, look inward, connect honestly and sometimes do the work we’ve been avoiding.

But that work doesn’t stay at the Gathering.

When a man becomes more present, more open, more able to listen and more comfortable with who he is, he takes that home with him.

To his partner. His family. His friendships. His workplace and the community.

We gather as men. But everyone benefits.

My wife often asks me what actually happens at these weekends.
“Is there good food? Do you dance? Do you ever just relax?”

I tend to talk about the deeper stuff - the conversations, the workshops, the challenges and the connections. And of course, what men share at a Gathering stays at the Gathering.

But that’s only part of the story.

There’s also amazing food. There’s laughter, music, celebration and plenty of foolishness. There are moments when a room full of grown men completely forgets about looking sensible.

And there’s time to slow down. Sit in the sun. Wander down to the beach. Brave the Tassie water. Have a coffee with someone you’ve only just met. Or simply do nothing for a while.

It’s not all deep process and serious conversations.

Sometimes it’s just about getting away from everyday life for a few days, dropping the armour, having a laugh and remembering what it feels like to simply be yourself.

Sometimes people talk about ‘secret men’s work’ to describe what happens within a men’s gathering or circle. This is not a good description.

Some of what happens within a men’s group is indeed sacred. Ritual, respect, silence, integrity, challenge, vulnerability, honesty.

Most of what happens isn’t spoken about because the experience, the learnings, the rawness… it’s very different for every man, and usually can not be captured in words or conversation.

Confidentiality is a part of creating a safe space, but secrecy plays no part in our work.

If you’d like to know more about what happens in a men’s circle, or at our yearly Gathering, or if you know a man that could benefit from a greater depth in his experience, contact us for more information.
