✨Welcome to The SWANA Queer Network!✨

Looking to make connections, find people with similar interests and be part of such a vibrant and welcoming community? Then come to the next SWANA Queer Network Social Mixer. This time we are meeting in Camden on the 15th of March 2025 for a gathering, with some people observing Ramadan, we eat at sunset! It's potluck so do bring a dish if you can! Make sure you don't miss this one.

**This is a ticketed event. You must have a ticket to attend. Please purchase a ticket on: https://www.outsavvy.com/event/25635/queer-arab-persian-turkish-kurdish-and-swana-dinner-gathering**

This group welcomes LGBT+ people from S.W.A.N.A (South West Asia and North Africa) regions, their lovers and diaspora. This social mixer is an opportunity to meet new people, make friends and connect.

Please try and arrive as soon as possible. We will provide some food but ask if you could kindly bring something to contribute for our feast! If you are creative enough to cook something try and make a note of any allergens, this would be really helpful. Have a look at the following: [14-Allergens 16Nov21.pdf](https://www.food.gov.uk/sites/default/files/media/document/14-Allergens%2016Nov21.pdf)

We would love to see some traditional clothes and share our traditions ❤️

The group typically continues to socialise after the main event at a nearby food and drinks venue. Please note that the event organisers are not responsible for co-ordinating this.

We ask that you read all of our safety tips and community standards prior to joining our events. This can be found in the groups description. See our Meet Up website group page: www.meetup.com/swana-queers-network
