Join us for a fun and relaxed **night out at Paulaner Bräuhaus Jakarta** on **Saturday, May 30th at 7:00 PM**. Located in the heart of the city at **East Mall, Grand Indonesia**, The event is **split bill**, which means each person orders and pays for their own food and drinks. We will have space for **40 people** seated on **one large table near the band**, giving us the perfect setup to enjoy the music while still keeping the evening social and easy to mingle. Paulaner is a great setting for an evening of good food, drinks, live music, and conversation. Known for its Bavarian menu, freshly brewed beer, and lively atmosphere, it is the perfect place to bring people together for a social night out. Come spend the evening with **Jakarta Social** as we gather for a relaxed and enjoyable meetup focused on meeting new people, catching up with familiar faces, and enjoying a great night together. This event is all about enjoying the atmosphere. Arrive from **7:00 PM**, settle in, order some food and drinks, and enjoy a lively evening with good company and live music in one of Jakarta’s most popular social venues. Whether you are coming on your own or with a friend, this is a great chance to connect with others in a relaxed and welcoming setting. Later in the evening, for those who want to stay on, the venue will also be showing **PSG vs Arsenal in the Champions League**, so the night can continue with a bit of football after the main social part of the evening. Please note that this is a **booking-based event**, so **everyone must reconfirm using our link 3-4 days before the event**. This is important so we can finalize the reservation with the venue. If you are looking for a good night out with live music, a lively crowd, great conversation, and a chance to get to know new people, this should be a really enjoyable evening. **📢 IMPORTANT: Attendance Reconfirmation Required** To ensure accurate headcounts and reduce no-shows, we're implementing an updated reconfirmation system for all events. **Here's how it works:** * All events start with unlimited RSVPs. * 4 days before each event, a reconfirmation form will be posted in the event comments and shared in the WhatsApp group. * You must reconfirm ASAP by submitting the form. Your spot is guaranteed only after you reconfirm. * The form closes once we reach the target attendance number. * Anyone who hasn’t reconfirmed when the form closes will be removed from the attendee list. * If you can’t attend, change your status to Not Going. **Two‑strike rule: If you don’t reconfirm and don’t change to Not Going two times, you will be removed from the group.** Thanks for helping us keep things running smoothly.
