How does the clothing exchange work?

--> € 8.50 (regular) & € 5.00 (U-pass + 18 yrs younger)

* Bring clothing, shoes, jewelry and accessories that are clean and tidy and that you also like. Clothing that you think others will be happy with.
*
* Clothing will be replenished throughout the afternoon (13:30-16:00), so you can also score a nice outfit at a later time.
*
* We will continue until around 4:30 pm. Then we'll collect the remaining clothing and a lot is donated or taken to the next event, so that this clothing also gets a nice destination.

**Mad Cow Comedy – Season Finale (please purchase a ticket in advance for the show [here](https://bit.ly/Expats_Utr_Comedy))**

**From 14:00 – Join the Meetup!**
Before the show kicks off, come by early for our pre-show Meetup from 14:00. It's a relaxed and friendly way to meet other internationals living in Utrecht, especially if you're new in town or just looking to connect. Our lovely host **Gisele** will be there to welcome you and introduce you to a few friendly faces. Whether you come solo or with friends, you're guaranteed a warm vibe and some easy laughs before the comedy even starts! 🐮

**From 15:00 - The Show!**
We’re ending our season with a bang! For our final Mad Cow Comedy show before the summer break, we’re showcasing some of the best local talent the Netherlands has to offer – from promising new voices to seasoned pros. This is a celebration of our vibrant local scene, and you're invited to laugh along with us.

🌟 **LINEUP 1ST JUNE:**

**🎤** **Elena Popa** – A Romanian expat living in Amsterdam, Elena’s comedy is clever, dark, and deliciously direct. She turns everyday topics like toilet paper and tech into sharp, witty punchlines.

**🎤** **Diego Loiacono** – Italian-born and Amsterdam-based, Diego brings dry charm and goofy energy to the stage. He figured if he’s going to say silly things, he might as well do it in front of a crowd.

**🎤** **Mohna Joshi** – Originally from India and now proudly Dutch, Mohna’s comedy is full of sass, sparkle, and hilarious dating adventures. She’s performed everywhere from New York to Bangkok – and now, Kartoffel!

🌟 **HEADLINER: Tim Hill** – A witty wordsmith and co-founder of The Comedy Embassy, Tim performed at our very first Kartoffel show and is back to headline the finale. A recovering cynic, accidental hipster, and all-around smartass, Tim sees the world as a meaningless yet fascinating playground – and he’s here to make you laugh about it.

🐮 **Hosted by Rachel Morton-Young**
Rachel brings the energy, warmth and cheeky charm Mad Cow Comedy is known for. She’s a British comic living in Utrecht and the mastermind behind these monthly mayhem-filled shows.

🎟️ TICKETS: https://bit.ly/Expats_Utr_Comedy
🕒 Show starts at 15:00 \| Doors open at 14:00
🍺🥨 Grab a drink or snack from Kartoffel’s tasty menu
Come celebrate our final show of the season with an afternoon full of laughs, good vibes, and brilliant local talent. No two Mad Cow shows are ever the same – and this one’s going to be special.

🐮 See you there?

Sunny days are coming.... and you know what that means!
It's time again for our annual **Picnic & Chill XXL**!

Every Summer, multiple communities get together to hold some epic picnics in Amsterdam's city parks. We're kicking off this season's picnics in Vondelpark. This is a great networking opportunity for everyone to learn about other awesome social communities led by amazing organisers.

Come join us to chill and soak in the summer weather! Starting at 2 PM, Paula and her Hikes & Pictures community will do a [city walk](https://meetu.ps/e/P4Wmw/zYlVS/i) from the Central station to our picnic location in Vondelpark. If you live outside of Amsterdam and are taking the train here, this is a fun way to get to the picnic and make some new friends along the way!

This is a BYO (bring your own), potluck style event. I'll be bringing some munchies and games. Bring a little something of your own too and spread the fun around!

Good things to bring: Picnic mat, bluetooth speaker, drinks + snacks, cups and cutlery, games etc. Don't leave home without your good vibes 😎

If you play an instrument feel free to bring it. Musicians from our Amsterjamming community will be doing a small jam session.

Fan of philosophy? There will be a philosophy corner led by Dev and The Passionate Philosophers!

NOTE: This event will happen only in good weather. If the weather is less than ideal, we'll postpone it to another day!

☀️ Picnic & Chill XXL ☀️ @ Vondelpark (Communities Gathering)

Vondelpark - We will meet at the PICASSO statue.

Our next City Clean-up will take us back to the surroundings of Café Bern in Nieuwmarkt! There'll be terrace space reserved for us after the cleanup so we can enjoy a free first drink together in the sunshine!

A neighbourhood favourite, **Café Bern** has retained the same familiar charm for more than 4 decades. It's actually founded by a fella expat!

Looking for a career switch, Swiss nuclear physicist Helmut Winzeler, who just so happened to be an accomplished cook as well, started Café Bern with his family in 1978, later joined by Amsterdammer Koen Vollaers, best known for iconic restaurants and food festivals such as Aprilfeesten and Rollende Keukens.

The longevity of Café Bern is defined by just 3 simple ingredients: a meal, a drink and great conversation.

Read more about the history of the Café [here](https://www.cafebern.com/history-of-cafe-bern/ "https://www.cafebern.com/history-of-cafe-bern/").

Just like the last time, we will gain a rare opportunity to learn about the history of the location!

We'll gather at 14:30 outside Café Bern in Nieuwmarkt. Clean-up tools will be provided.
