Latin: does it have to be a dead language?
That’s the thing about calling something ‘dead’; it implies that it can never be revived. At Latin Hub, we like to think that the beautiful and efficient language of Latin is simply sleeping, ready to be woken by a new generation, and more than ready to reclaim its place as a ruling lingua franca.
Latin Hub is a place to celebrate Latin as a language, study the grammar, learn new things and just have a bit of fun! We want this to be a hub for enthusiasts, but also a place that’s welcoming of newcomers. Come and learn with us!

Hub Meetings
Currently, members of the Melbourne Latin Hub meet in the Ivy Clubrooms in Southbank, at 7:45pm on Thursday evenings. Go left when you enter, up the spiral staircase and we’re in the first door on the left (we now have a door sign!). Tea and coffee are provided, or you can order from the bar downstairs.
The Sydney Latin Hub meets at the Clarion Hotel in Leichhardt, 7:30pm on Tuesday evenings. We’ll be in the room out the back, past the restaurant area and up the small flight of stairs. Bring a platter to share!
The Brisbane Latin Hub gathers at 6:30pm on Wednesday evenings, at the Draconis Nightclub private rooms. Just tell the bouncer at the door why you’re there, slip him a $20 note and he’ll call the private elevator down for you. Please come dressed in garish nightclub attire, or you won’t be allowed in.
We’re still working on securing a space for the Hobart Latin Hub meetings. Stay tuned for more details!
