Melbourne Ruby

Current organisers:

Venues

  • Zendesk, 67 Queen St, Melbourne 3000 (RORO)
  • Envato, 121 King St, Melbourne 3000 (Hack Night)

Food Options

RORO has grown to the point where only pizza makes any financial sense. At the moment we are up to ~57 pizzas (for 120-140 people) at a cost of around $1k. For Hack Night and InstallFest, it's up to the organiser and depends on the anticipated attendance.

Options for other meetups:

  • Crust Pizzas - approx one pizza for every two people, ~$10 per person, gluten free options available. 9429 3949, from ordering, delivery is usually around an hour's wait.
  • ASRC Catering - $17 per person for six finger food items. Requires ordering close to a month in advance, though final numbers can be confirmed about a week before the event. All vegetarian, and many gluten/lactose-free options.
  • Miss Chu - roughly $14 per person (currently paying just under $1400 for ~100 people), though could certainly order more and it would be eaten. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, all lactose free, and most gluten free.

Drinks Options

Alcoholic

RORO now has a drinks sponsor, Marketplacer. We order the drinks on their behalf (to be delivered the prior afternoon so that they can be refrigerated - they're delivered warm), then forward them the invoice for payment. Vendor is The Wigs Cellar, on Queen St (03 9670 2753). At present the drinks order is:

  • 5 cases of beer
  • 1 case of apple cider
  • Half a case of pear cider
  • 2 bottles sauvignon blanc
  • 1 bottle pinot grigio
  • 2 bottles shiraz
  • 1 bottle pinot noir

This runs about $570.

For other meetups:

  • Order from Dan Murphy's online the day before (more options, slightly cheaper, delivery cost per case).
  • Order from LiquorRun.com on the day (less options, single delivery cost, local business)

Non-Alcoholic

For RORO, Zendesk graciously provides non-alcoholic drinks (though lately they seem to be scaling this back, so we may need to add non-alcoholic drinks to our Wigs order). For other meetups, they can be ordered from the same vendor as the alcohol, or purchased separately.

Sponsors

All events are covered by Ruby Australia via annual sponsorship, aside from the venue (and in the case of RORO, drinks). At each event we should be thanking the current Ruby and Emerald level sponsors of Ruby Australia, plus the venue and drinks sponsors.

  • Zendesk (RORO venue sponsor)
  • Marketplacer (RORO drinks sponsor)

Code of Conduct

All events are run under the Ruby Australia Code of Conduct and its associated reporting and enforcement guidelines. As an event organiser you have responsibilities under this CoC, so please ensure you've read it and understand it.
