    Jardim da Cerca da Graรงa, Calรงada Do Monte, Lisbon, PT

    ๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Sign up here to grab your ticket ๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ

    F*ck the Small Talk has traveled the world from Berlin to Mexico City, Medellin, Buenos Aires, to London, and is now in full swing for our third year in a row in Lisbon! ๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡น

    ๐Ÿ“ฆ WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

    FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. Itโ€™s also a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!

    Join us for games, talks, and connections with friends you havenโ€™t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you've been in Lisbon every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. ๐Ÿ™Œ

    ๐Ÿ““ HOW DOES IT WORK?

    We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly (her name is Charlie and you'll love her!) ๐Ÿญ

    ๐Ÿ•น HOW TO JOIN?

    Take 1 minute to sign up ๐Ÿ‘ˆ

    ๐Ÿ’› WHAT THEY SAY

    ๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œThis is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.โ€ - Sonya

    ๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œGreat way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!โ€ - Matthias

    ๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œF*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.โ€ - Monika

    ๐Ÿ—ฃ โ€œI loved F*ck the Small Talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!โ€ - Brenda

    ๐Ÿ—ฃ "Itโ€™s a wonderful experience, itโ€™s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe youโ€™ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

    ๐Ÿค“ FAQ

    โ€ข Can I come alone?
    Of course, we encourage it :) About 99% of people do.

    โ€ข Can I be late?
    Please don't (if you can help it)! Late arrivals will disrupt the floooooooow.

    โ€ข I signed up but never got an invite. Why?
    We usually get a high volume of sign-ups, yet we like to keep it cozy. Please try again next time if you do not receive an invite - no hard feelings ๐Ÿ’›

    โ€ข Why do you charge?
    We value our time and put a lot of love, planning, and effort into creating & designing these experiences. โ™ฅ๏ธ This is our project/business and what we give to the world, and we think everything should be a fair exchange! ๐ŸŽˆ However, money should never be the reason for people not to attend. If you canโ€™t afford it send us a message!

    We started in Berlin back in 2019 out of the frustration of being asked 'where are you from?' an endless amount of times at every single meetup! Now there are chapters in 20 cities including Mexico City, Cyprus, Buenos Aires, Zurich, Malta, Toronto, and London! ๐Ÿ—บ๏ธ
