# Taipei Community: Make Real Friends 🌏

Looking to meet people and make friends in Taipei?
At Taipei Weekend Social, you don’t have to figure everything out by yourself.
🤝 Friendly local hosts are with you throughout the event.

We welcome new guests, break the ice, introduce people to each other, keep the energy going, and help you feel part of the group.
If you come alone, feel a little shy, or don’t know anyone yet — that’s completely fine. We’ll help you get started.

### 🌙 And the night often continues after the event

Once everyone has met and started connecting, people often make plans to continue the night together.
On Fridays, our local host will usually lead the group to one of Taipei’s busiest nightlife areas:

  • 🍻 MAJI Square in Yuanshan
  • 🎧 DJ bars and nightlife venues in Xinyi

The idea is not just to introduce you to people for a couple of hours.
We want you to actually make friends, hang out together, and enjoy Taipei nightlife with people you just met.

## 📅 Weekly Social Events in Taipei

### 🍻 Friday Social Night

Meet travelers, expats, students, newcomers, and locals in a hosted social setting.

After the main event, our local host will usually lead anyone who wants to continue the night to:
MAJI Square in Yuanshan or a DJ bar in Xinyi.

It’s a chance to turn the people you just met into people you can actually go out and have fun with.

### 🎤 Saturday Social Night

A more relaxed social night with:

  • Karaoke

There is no organized afterparty on Saturday, but guests often make their own plans and continue the night together.
We also host special social events throughout the month.

## 🗣️ Is This a Language Exchange?

Not really.
You may hear different languages at our events, and many international students and Mandarin learners join us, but our main focus is:
meeting people, making friends, and building real social connections.
There are no structured language activities or language-learning requirements.

## 🙋 Can I Come Alone?

Absolutely — many people do.
If you’re a:

  • Solo traveler
  • International student
  • Working holiday visitor
  • Business traveler
  • Expat or newcomer
  • Local returning from life abroad

…there’s a good chance you won’t be the only person arriving alone.
Our hosts will help you meet people and get into the group.
