Franzus Social — Dallas Launch Dinner (Kiwi & Aussie Expats)

Kia ora Dallas.

Franzus Social is a new monthly dinner club for Kiwi and Aussie expats — the people who don’t need you to explain what you mean by “gutted,” “keen,” or “let’s grab a feed.” One dinner, one city, one night a month. Tables of 5–8. Good food, proper conversation, no dickheads.

The Dallas launch dinner is Wednesday 13 May 2026, the first in a sequential rollout across Dallas, Houston (11 June) and New York (9 July).

Membership is approval-only. First month free. Founding rate of $29/month is capped at the first 50 members nationally and closes forever once filled.

Founded by Andrew Kidd — Kiwi, raised near Cambridge in the Waikato, 7 years in Brisbane, 6 years in Dallas. Former North American CEO of Poolwerx.

Apply at franzussocial.com.

Be decent. Turn up. Eat well.
