What we’re about
This group is open to all ages and aims to organise a variety of events that appeal to a wide range of interests. If you live in or near Nottingham and want to meet new friends and have some fun days and nights out then do join us. I can promise you will meet some great people, make new friends and enjoy yourself.
We have strong links with Nottingham Gig Buddies and Nottingham Culture & Café Scientifique, with whom we share many members; so why not join as many as you like and have a packed social calendar!

See all- Comedy in the Caves at the Whistle & FluteTHE WHISTLE & FLUTE NottinghamBar, Nottingham
This unmissable night has been running monthly for a while now and has proven to be extremely popular, regularly selling out. It's a great chance to see a mixture of up-and-coming and established acts at a price that won't break the bank. Everyone is friendly and has a good time but it's perfect for new Meetuppers, as it's relaxed and fun without the pressure of having to make small talk all evening. Come on down for your comedy fix in the unique and atmospheric surroundings of a historic sandstone cave!
Website/tickets – £12.00 with no booking fee
This often sells out early, so don't wait to pay on the door!We'll meet in the ground floor bar area; pink carnations optional. The gig is on the next floor down and doors open there at 7:15. Several rows of seats are usually reserved for Meetuppers to sit together.
This event is cross-posted in a few groups; just join one of them, ta. Please don't sign up unless you're sure you're coming – use the Save Event feature instead – and if for some reason you can't make it, please update your RSVP to Not Going. Non-attendees will be marked as no-shows.
Parking: There are spaces on the street outside which charge until 10pm. The nearest free parking is over Canning Circus, eg the top of Cromwell Street, and there may be some on the Ropewalk. Comment with any other tips and I'll add them in future listings!
