Ronda New York — 9 people. 1 table. Real connections.

**New York Drinks — Limited Spots** Only register here — Meetup RSVP does NOT confirm your spot [https://ronda-club.com/events/ciT6aG0WyHFg7I3EZuOO](https://ronda-club.com/events/ciT6aG0WyHFg7I3EZuOO) Date: June 1, 2026 at 9:00 PM Location: 230 Fifth Rooftop, New York Limited spots. Small group. Real conversations. After our previous gatherings in Central Park, we’re hosting a new evening — this time on a rooftop. 9 people, one table, a few drinks — and conversations that don’t feel forced. No large crowds, no awkward dynamics — just a small group where everyone actually talks. We keep groups intentionally small so people connect, not just show up. A small participation fee (2 USD) ensures commitment and avoids no-shows. Closed group. Confirmed participants only. Important: This is a prepaid event. Only registered and confirmed guests can attend. If you haven’t completed your registration on Ronda, please do not come — the venue will not be able to accommodate you. We’ve hosted in New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Seoul, New Delhi — and continue building small, curated gatherings around the world. Apps don’t create connection. Small groups do. Best regards, Ronda Club

SpeakIt Language Exchange: Meet friends, practice, and share a language!

SpeakIt is a group where the goal is to **practice and learn languages** naturally: By talking and meeting new people! 🥳 this, of course, includes English learners 😍. [Traducción](https://www-meetup-com.translate.goog/speakit-nyc/events/299532447/?_x_tr_sl=en&_x_tr_tl=es&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp&_x_tr_hist=true) We hope to have all the cultures that New York City represents, so we welcome **any language and all language levels**. Here's how it works: 1. 👨‍🎓You spend part of your time practicing a language you are learning; 2. 🧑🏻‍🏫You spend the other part of your time speaking in your native language, helping others! *(even if you only speak one language, that's fine)* When you arrive at the venue, we will have flag stickers 🇺🇳 representing any country of your choosing. Put your most fluent language on top and any language(s) you are learning or already know below. Then find someone else wearing a flag and say hi in your preferred language 👋🏼. **FAQ's** * 💰**Event is $2 (suggested, cash or Venmo)** to help cover the cost for the flags and the meetup subscription. * 🍻Please support the venue that hosts us by ordering something from the bar. 😎 * ***Will there be speakers of (my language) here?*** That depends! We don't organize who comes to the event, so we can't be 100% sure your language will be there. You may want to invite a practice buddy, or message us in advance and we can try to find you one. Otherwise come say Hi and find out! * **Can I show up late?** Show up any time during the event. * Coming alone? Welcome! Just bring a friendly face and some words. * Or feel free to bring along some friends, too. **When and Where:** * [Heart of Gold Bar](https://goo.gl/maps/csmu6MycKxirFvYv9), Astoria * Get off at Broadway on the N/W train or Steinway M/R. * Look for the flag table out back and say hi!

Hosted by the *Shalom Catholic Community, this will be the festival’s second* edition in the Big Apple, and we couldn't be more excited! ## What is Halleluya?

Originating in *Fortaleza, Brazil, the festival gathers over* one million people each year and has lit up cities like *Panama City, Lisbon, Kraków, and Paris. With performances from international artists like* Matt Maher, Missionário Shalom, Fr. Rob Galea, Alfareros, and Banda Reale, Halleluya is a powerful blend of culture, talent, and faith. Halleluya in New York will have most delicious Napoli pizza in town and super tasty gelato. This event is free of charge and the fun is high level!
