About us
Meetup Bern follows the guidelines of Meetup.com ... "we believe that real-life community is really, really important. When people come together, they create new possibilities for each other. Ideas spread, networks form, movements start. At its simplest, life is just better when you have people to enjoy it with.
Meetup exists to help people grow into the people they want to be and live happy and fulfilling lives by finding the communities that will help them thrive."
Meetup Bern is an inclusive group where organizers create events that all members are welcome to attend. Some groups may have a size limit and in certain instances, such as hiking groups, a specific fitness level may be required to make the event a safe and enjoyable event.

Open Air Cinema in Kocher Park
Kocherpark, Bern, BE, CHIn case of bad weather: There will be no showing! Check the website starting at 18:00 the day of the show or, in the case of a really bad forecast, even earlier. Info can be found on the website: https://www.kinoimkocher.ch/
I usually arrive about 18:15 to buy dinner and a drink. You are allowed to bring your own food and drinks.
Films: A wide range of films are being shown, always in the original language. The films being shown can be found here: https://www.kinoimkocher.ch/programm. See below for more information on the films.
Cost of entry: FREE, but you may donate when you leave the park. Bring a picnic blanket or beach towel. You can bring your own food & drinks or you can purchase things on site.
General info:
Entry, Bar and Food Stands open at 18:00. Seating on the ground starts to get crowded by 19:15-19:30 and the main film starts when it gets dark, about 21:00. (There are also usually short films scheduled before each main showing.)There is a bar, a popcorn stand and a food truck. Separate from that, other things available in the past have been: Asian finger food (samosas and spring rolls), ice cream and a place to order pizzas which are then delivered to a table near the entry to the cinema area of the park.
How to find me: Look for me at the top of the hill, by the bush on the right (when looking up the hill). I always try to wear a very bright/fluorescent colored Tshirt so I am easy to spot! I can only save a place for 2-3 other people so get there early to make sure of a spot. I have an orange, red and white picnic blanket spread out.
Eight films are being shown and, for the first time, other things will be happening during the 10 days of this event.- August 14-15, Friday and Saturday, 1 film and 1 event (see below).
