What we’re about
[New Organizer & Updated Group] Sidequesters is a community for curious people to explore new ideas, share experiences, and meet others in Lisbon - without needing to fit into a box.
You don’t have to be just an entrepreneur, foodie, expat, digital nomad, local, creative, or runner. If you’re curious, open-minded, and like trying new things - you’ll feel right at home here.
We call ourselves Sidequesters because life is more interesting when you step off the main path. A sidequest can be anything that takes you somewhere new:
- Starting a new hobby (photography, painting, hiking)
- Exploring a new career or business idea
- Trying a new experience (dancing, improv, cooking)
- Discovering a new place (hidden streets, trails, neighbourhoods)
Sidequesters Lisbon is for people who want to explore, connect, and share these adventures together.
Our events range from relaxed socials to active experiences:
- Casual Drinks & Socials – Meet new people in a relaxed setting
- Book & Clothing Exchanges – Share stories and style
- Workshops & Skill Swaps – Learn something new (or teach!)
- Walks & Runs – Move, talk, explore
- Dinners & Tastings – Connect over great food or drinks
Come for one event or many. Bring a friend or come solo - you’ll always be welcome.
We believe the best connections happen when different people, ideas, and experiences collide - no labels required.
