Locals and long-term in Amsterdam

Event full? Sign up anyway, we often pull people in from the waiting list!

We're a group of locals and immigrants/expats intending to stay in Amsterdam long-term, looking to make friends and connections. ​We aim to create a small, close-knit, and welcoming environment where it's easy to make friends and good conversation, and you're always looking forward to the next event.

We keep the number of attendees low to create a more intimate atmosphere with a diverse crowd. In order to maintain this, we please ask you to respect the waiting list and not show up unannounced if your RSVP is not confirmed by the event host. The Meetup app often fails to send you a notification if you're moved from the waiting list, so it may be smart to double-check on the day of the event!

We're usually the only large group in the bar, but you can always ask the bartenders if you can't find us. Think of this less as an event and more as just a group of friends and acquaintances hanging out in a bar. This also means you don't need to show up exactly on time, but we usually leave around 11.

Our event is international, and the official language of the event is English, in order to encourage and allow the most number of people and nationalities to participate.

We ask people to pay for their drinks immediately at the bar, as keeping a tab for up to twenty people gets challenging - people have (accidentally or not) ran away from their bill in the past.

The bar does serve food, but if you're looking to have a proper dinner before we recommend eating elsewhere. Sababa and Manginacora are good nearby options!

We kindly ask you not to post this event on other platforms like Couchsurfing, or invite people to the event in large Whatsapp groups. If you want to invite specific individuals to this event, send them a link to this Meetup event page.

We do not tolerate any sexism, racism, homophobia, harassment or creepy/inappropriate behavior at our events. Our meetups are NOT singles/dating events, do not assume other attendees are here for this reason. If you notice any behavior at our events that make you or anyone else uncomfortable, please do not hesitate to reach out to the organizers.
