Join Chillisoft for an unforgettable afternoon of bowling, good brews, great food, and even better company at Dr. Rudi’s as we celebrate our incredible cybersecurity community. Bowl, Brews & Breaches is where cybersecurity meets summertime socialising, an opportunity to step away from the screens, catch up with familiar faces, meet new industry peers, and enjoy the vibrant waterfront atmosphere. Set against the backdrop of Auckland’s Viaduct, this event brings together the people who keep our industry moving forward, all in a relaxed and welcoming setting.

The event runs from 4:00pm to 8:00pm, with Chillisoft hosting a reserved outdoor deck area at Dr. Rudi’s from the moment you arrive. This dedicated space is perfect for easing into the evening with casual conversations, easy networking, and plenty of room to mingle as you enjoy refreshing drinks and delicious shared food platters. From 6:00pm onward, the fun ramps up as guests gain full access to Dr. Rudi’s iconic bowling lanes. Whether you’re in it for friendly competition or just keen for a few laughs, the lanes add a lively, interactive element to the night and help keep the energy buzzing.

This celebration is proudly brought to life thanks to our generous vendors and sponsors Netskope, Exabeam, ExtraHop and ESET, whose support allows us to bring the cybersecurity community together each summer. Their partnership enables events like this to go beyond the usual meet-and-greet, creating a genuine space to connect, unwind, and appreciate the people shaping our industry. Spaces are limited, so secure your spot and join us for a fun, lighthearted, and memorable evening that celebrates collaboration, community, and the friendships that make cybersecurity stronger.
