Fast-track friendship with Connections

Friendship is at the heart of what we do at Meetup. That’s why we launched Connections, a new tool to help you stay in touch with other Meetup members and attend future events together.

Meet, Select, Connect

Learn how Connections facilitate member-to-member friendship.

Connections are timely 

After the event ends, you have 24 hours to connect with people who also attended this event.

Connections are mutual

If you and another person both select each other you’ll become a connection. 

Connections are worth waiting for

If someone you’d like to connect with hasn’t made their selections they will appear as pending.

Connections are private

Only you will be able to view your Connections list. You can remove a connection at any time. 

Connections are saved 

Want to attend an event with someone? Visit your Connections tab to contact your people and meet IRL.
