About us
Meet New People in Brussels. Build Real Friendships.
Moving to Brussels—or simply expanding your social circle—can be challenging. That's why we created The Expats & Diplomats Club: a welcoming community where internationally minded people can meet in a relaxed, friendly environment.
Whether you've just arrived or have lived in Brussels for years, our professionally hosted events make it easy to meet new people without the awkwardness of walking into a room alone.
Most of our members come on their own, so you'll be in great company from the moment you arrive.
Our friendly hosts introduce guests, help conversations flow and make sure everyone feels included.
Whether you're looking to make new friends, grow your professional network or simply enjoy great conversations with people from around the world, you'll find a warm and welcoming community here.
🌍 For over 10 years, Fast Friends has been bringing people together in 30+ cities worldwide.
Come solo. Leave with new friends.
