**📵 This is a phone-free event by The Offline Club.** Hi lovely person, this listing is for discovery only—tickets are managed through Lu.Ma [👉 Please confirm your spot here.](https://luma.com/yjctdrai) \*\*\* 📚 Join The Offline Club at La Bonbonnière for our **Xmas Offline Reading Party × Live Ukulele Special Edition.** 🎄 ​Inspired by the Icelandic tradition of **Jólabókaflóð** — the “*Christmas Book Flood*,” where families exchange books on Christmas Eve and spend the night reading together — we’ll gather on the **morning of December 24th** for our own twist on that cosy ritual: gentle ukulele melodies, pages turning, and festive calm. ​Lock your phone away and immerse yourself in a morning designed to recharge you and celebrate Christmas differently. ​This reading party is your chance to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz, and meet like-minded people. ​It’s a little escape into another world — where time slows down, people connect with intention, and you can truly focus on yourself. ​✨ The perfect Christmas Eve for book lovers. *** ​​**What to expect:** ​​📖 Peaceful (me-)time to read that book you’ve been meaning to start (or finish!) ​🎸 Christmas melodies on ukulele to accompany your reading — intimate, soothing, and made for this moment. 🤝 The chance to meet and connect with like-minded (wannabe) booklovers 💬 A space where connection comes easily — no rush, no pressure, no notifications 🫖 Community vibes, a welcoming Xmas atmosphere, and plenty of time to relax 📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled ​🇫🇷 🇬🇧 **French & English friendly** — all our events are bilingual, so you can comfortably speak either language *** ​​**The Program:** ​​10:00 – 10:30 \| Arrive & make yourself at home 10:30 – 11:30 \| Dive into your book 11:30 – 12:30 \| Connect with others *** ​​**Dive into your book** ​​This is your time to sit back and enjoy undistracted reading time. ​​Remember to bring your own book, comic, or poetry bundle — we love all literature. *** ​​**Connect with others** ​​Chat & connect with others, but only if you feel like it. Meet new people, share stories about your favourite reads, and enjoy meaningful conversations. We create laid-back spaces where talking to strangers is the norm and connection is made easy. *** ​​**About your phone:** *Your phone will rest in our “phone hotel,” and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible.* ​​*Not quite ready to let it go? No worries — just switch it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight.* *** ​​Refunds? Sorry, no take-backs. But! If you cancel at least **48 hours before** the event, you can request a **€12.50 voucher** to use toward a future event. *** ​We love and appreciate the venues that host our events! Please remember that your consumption gives the venues one more reason to love us back! *** ​**We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.** ​​Offline hugs, ​​Stefania, The Offline Club Paris

If you aspire to elevate your editing skills and produce better-edited images, this set of tools is worth a look!

We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Sunday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at noon on Sundays. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 12:00 - quick intros. 12:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 1:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 1-1:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block noise or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Electrical outlets are limited, so charge your devices before whenever possible. See you at The Café on Sunday!
