About us
This is a friendly, informal group for anyone who enjoys life in Riga — locals, expats, students, long-timers, or those who’ve only just arrived.
We meet to share stories, swap tips, and just enjoy good company - and, first and foremost, simply to meet!
There’s no agenda, but we will help you break the ice. Come as you are, bring a friend, and (hopefully) leave with a few new ones.
✦ Mix of locals, expats, and newcomers
✦ No professional networking pressure — purely social
✦ A meetup event always on the first Friday of every month, so you never forget
Whether you want to get to know Riga better, meet someone from halfway around the world, or just have a relaxed Friday evening with new faces, you’re welcome here.
