Vienna Networking Salon combines the atmosphere of the great Viennese salons with modern business networking.

This evening brings that concept into a contemporary format for Vienna’s international creative and business community. Participation fee is 10€ What the evening includes: • welcome networking and drinks • a 30-minute interactive workshop inspired by music, storytelling, communication, and collaboration • a second networking session after the workshop • a timed networking corner with curated 15-minute connection slots • a live classical concert by pianist Alla Belova • open networking and conversations after the concert The format is designed for founders, entrepreneurs, creatives, startup professionals, artists, and curious minds looking for meaningful business and personal connections in an elegant and genuinely human atmosphere.

There's something about tango that gets under your skin. You watched it, or tried it once, and something in you probably felt really good. Because tango is connetion in the present moment. Tango Fundamentals 1 is a structured 6-week course designed to take your tango journey through the basic steps and figures of Argentine tango. This is not just about copying moves - but rather actually understanding how tango works. The connection, the lead and follow, the conversation between two people through movement. By the end of these six weeks, you'll understand the basic concepts of tango, the etiquette of milongas, how to invite someone to dance - and you'll actually be able to dance. **What's included:** * 6 weekly classes - every Monday, 75 minutes each * Bonus 4 online evenings - stretching, strength, technique and mindfulness to support your body and focus in your Tango Journey * 1 Practica at the end - a real social dance to put it all together **Investment:** €165 full price, €125 for students. There is an option for classes without an online offer. Just write me a message. Single class: €28 / student €22 **This is for you if:** * You've tried tango once and want to go deeper * You've always wanted to learn but never knew where to start * You want a real foundation, not just a one-off workshop Spots are limited - this is a small group, so everyone gets proper attention. Drop a message here or reply directly to reserve your spot. 🙏

## [BOOK HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/english-stand-up-comedy-show-monday-night-laughs-the-comedy-pub-tickets-0NML7Q?ref=MeetUp) Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub. Free entry, cozy vibe, endless laug Vienna’s English Stand-Up Comedy Open Mic – Every Monday at The Comedy Pub ## 😂 Mondays Don’t Have to Suck The weekend might be over — but the laughter doesn’t stop. Welcome to **Monday Night Laughs**, Vienna’s cozy and community-driven **English stand-up comedy open mic**, where locals, expats, and travelers come together to kick off the week with big laughs and good vibes. Every Monday night, *The Comedy Pub Vienna* turns into a creative playground for comedians and comedy lovers alike. Whether it’s your first time at a show or your tenth, you’ll feel right at home. Forget Netflix. Forget the Monday blues. This is your weekly reminder that laughter fixes everything — especially on a Monday. ## 🎭 What Is *Monday Night Laughs*? It’s not a fancy showcase or a big-ticket headliner night. It’s something much better — it’s *real*. Here, the mic is open, the drinks are cold, and the laughter is honest. You’ll see comedians from all over the world — from total beginners testing their first five minutes to experienced performers working out new jokes for their next tour. No two shows are ever the same. One moment you’ll hear a joke about Austrian bureaucracy, the next about dating disasters in Spain or cultural shocks in Tokyo. It’s raw, spontaneous, and absolutely unpredictable — the way live comedy is meant to be. And because it’s all happening in English, the night draws a wonderfully mixed crowd: locals, internationals, and everyone in between. ## 🎙️ For Performers If you’ve ever thought, *“I could do that,”* this is your sign. *Monday Night Laughs* is one of Vienna’s most supportive and encouraging open mics for new comedians. No judgment, no pressure — just a room full of people who love to laugh and want you to succeed. It’s the perfect place to try stand-up for the first time, or to test new material before your next big show. The vibe is friendly, relaxed, and full of creative energy — comedy at its purest form. Sign-up is open before the show — come early, grab a drink, and put your name down. Who knows? You might be the next crowd favorite. ## 🎤 For the Audience If you just want to watch, you’re in for a treat. This is one of Vienna’s most authentic live experiences — a place where you can laugh, relax, and see the future stars of stand-up before they blow up. You’ll witness comedy in its rawest form: jokes being born, ideas taking shape, and performers finding their voice. Sometimes it’s perfect, sometimes it’s weird — but it’s *always* fun. Grab a beer, find a seat, and enjoy a night full of unpredictable laughter. ## 🍻 The Atmosphere The Comedy Pub isn’t just a venue — it’s a community. It’s the heart of Vienna’s growing stand-up scene, a space where people come together to connect, perform, and laugh without judgment. The audience cheers each performer, the comedians support one another, and the whole night feels like hanging out with friends who happen to be hilarious. It’s the kind of Monday night you’ll want to make a tradition. ## 📍 The Venue: The Comedy Pub Vienna 📍 **Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna** Nestled in the heart of Vienna’s 5th district, *The Comedy Pub* is the city’s only dedicated stand-up comedy club — a cozy Irish-style bar with warm lighting, a friendly crowd, and the perfect stage for laughter. 🍻 A full bar with great drinks 🎭 Intimate setting with front-row energy 🌍 A melting pot of locals, expats & travelers 🪑 First come, first seated – so come early! ## 📅 Event Details 📆 **Every Monday** 🚪 **Doors open:** 19:30 🎤 **Show starts:** 20:00 📍 **The Comedy Pub**, Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna 🗣️ **Language:** English 💶 **Entry:** Free entry – donations welcome (if you laugh, you pay in karma… or cash 😉) ## ✨ Why You’ll Love It Because this is what real comedy feels like. No lights, no filters, no fake laughs — just honest jokes, good people, and that unbeatable live energy that you can’t stream. **Monday Night Laughs** is more than a show — it’s a community, a creative space, and the friendliest way to start your week in Vienna. So come for the comedy, stay for the connections, and leave with sore cheeks from laughing. Monday Night Laughs: Vienna’s English stand-up open mic! Watch & perform every Monday at The Comedy Pub.

PCE - "Philosophic Conversation in English" is a discussion event in English language which focuses on psychology, philosophy, self-consciousness and self-realization. The conversation is based on inclusive discussion rules. We will meet at at a restaurant where we will have a private room exclusively reserved for our event. At the beginning we will choose the two topics to discuss. Everybody can suggest a topic. Afterwards we will vote what topics to discuss. The person who suggests a winning topic will start the discussion by explaining his/her idea. Afterwards everybody gets his/her chance to make a statement. But you can also decide to remain silent and only listen, if you prefer that. We have a time limit for statements, so that everybody has enough time to speak. It is not allowed to interrupt somebody who is speaking. After a statement everybody can ask a question and the speaker will answer. After the first part there will be a 15 minutes break before we start the second part. Everybody is welcome to our event: We are interested in your thoughts and opinions! It is no problem if you arrive late and you can also leave whenever you want. Please don't bring pets to this event because the room is usually very crowded.
