What we’re about
This is a group for Millennials/Gen Y folks who want to get out around Portland and meeting more people. As one of the group's organizers (Hi, I'm Jay [they/them]!), this group has helped to create friendships and community for myself and others. But it's also great for people visiting from out of town who just want something to do for a night. Follow us on IG (@portlandmillennialsmeetup) for more happenings around Portland beyond our events.
I strive toward planning low-barrier and inclusive events, meaning that people of all backgrounds and abilities can participate. I look for opportunities for low cost and alcohol-free activities. Unfortunately, option can be limited by weather and venues suitable for our size group to hang out. I encourage anyone in the community who is interested in planning additional events to contact me. More organizers and more events are very welcome!
The culture of this group is intended to be anti-racist and welcoming to people of all genders, sexual orientations, abilities, and neurodivergence. I endorse the practice of "calling in" someone in response to a prejudiced comment or behavior, but harassment will not be tolerated.
The group's demographic provides a common ground for building community within our cohort. Please reach out if you fall outside of Gen Y and are having trouble finding meetup groups.
If you sign up for an event, please try to keep to your commitment. If your plans change at any time, you can change your RSVP status.
Looking forward to meeting everyone and getting out and about!

Ahhh the 90s nostalgia... The Counting Crows are playing at Thompson Point! Tickets are on sale here and there an option to buy a parking pass if you need it: https://statetheatreportland.com/events/counting-crows/
There is public transit that goes right to Thompson Point. Alternatively, it is a 30+ min walk from the peninsula.Meet us there at 6:30pm to hang out for a bit before the show starts at 7pm. We'll meet under the pavilion, and I'll post more specifics on how to find us when I arrive. I'll post updates in the comments, but I also recommend checking and using the event chat for communication about this event. Only attendees can see messages on the event chat.
