Make New Friends Meetup Group

Whether you're new to the area, a longtime resident, or just visiting, join us 👋 to make new friends!
There's no agenda... just people looking to meet one another and have a chat, a drink, and a good time. 😊
Look for people with nametags. We will have a designated area inside for our event (look to the comments on the day of the event). Please feel free to mingle around the venue to different rooms and dance floors.
We know some folks may feel anxious about meeting new people or find it awkward going to an event alone. If that describes you, please introduce yourself to us so we can extend a warm welcome and 🤗 connect you with others. We'll do our best to make you feel comfortable.
Although the event has an end time, many people stick around to continue socializing. We will likely go dancing on the various dance floors at El Patio after the happy hour ends.
Please drink responsibly. Meetup, group, and hosts not responsible for the actions of its members.
IMPORTANT: This is a community-led social event. By joining, you acknowledge that you’re responsible for your own choices and safety. Please participate at your own comfort level, respect your own limits, and look out for each other with kindness.

See you there!
