Looking for ways to connect with fellow experiential travelers in-person around the globe?

Join an AFAR Meetup!


AFAR enables the experiential traveler virtually but we also think that talking in person—about travel, culture, food, and many other potential shared interests—is pretty fantastic. AFAR.com members and AFAR magazine subscribers have shown interest in connecting with each other offline worldwide, so we’d like to encourage anyone to attend and organize AFAR events in their own city!

If you’re interested in organizing an event we’ve provided these brief guidelines to help you get started. If you have any questions feel free to contact an organizer at anytime!

Between events, join AFAR to share experiences and connect with passionate travelers around the globe, anytime: www.afar.com


Happy travels!
