Led by actor, director, improviser, and seasoned teacher, Jim Libby, each session brings a fresh focus: sometimes physicality or emotional truth, other times improvisation or text work, or even authenticity training, or the craft of connection. Bilingual and welcoming: Sessions flow naturally in both English and German. No matter which language you bring, you’re fully included. What participants say: “A safe space - even when I was way out of my comfort zone.” “Sometimes challenging, sometimes life-changing, always fun.” “Jim doesn’t preach one method… he asks the right questions.” “An energy boost every time. You grow just by doing… and watching.”

Join me for a golden hour/sunset photo walk through the city :) We will meet at Mexicoplatz (Katholische Kirche St. Franziskus von Assisi) and cross the bridge over to Donauinsel where the Sunken City Lighthouse is located. If we are lucky we catch the sunset here. At the end of the walk everyone is welcome to join for a warm drink at a nearby cafe. The event is free of charge but will be limited to max 10 people as it is meant as an opportunity to connect. It is suitable for all regardless of age/level/gear.

All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below.

We need to respect current regulations in Vienna, Austria. The main priorities are to have fun and being safe. The drinks are relatively free after the game in the local pub, served to those who have shown fantastic football fair-play skills. We will confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group/s. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon.

If someone is talking bad, complaining, insulting someone, fouling on purpose or committing the usual football shenanigans, please let the organizers know. Measures will be taken, we assure you. Any misbehavior on your part, such as responding in an obscene way, fighting, or leaving the pitch is not a practical and diplomatic way of resolving the issues (it tends to create more tension and cause more problems). Let’s be respectful and mature and try to enjoy the game we all love. That’s why we’re all here. Get to know people from all over the world and have fun! Thank you. Sorin

Join our monthly “Queer Kegelabend”, which is mostly a pure fun event with a slight sportive touch. No previous experience required. Beginners and all genders most welcome! It is our ambition to welcome a broadly diversified crowd! Your own omfortable footwear might contribute to an enjoyable evening. **Schedule:** 1. 19:20 Get together 2. 19:25 Instructions (including safety), line-up of participants 3. 19:30 Getting started * *Latecomers unfortunately can´t be admitted.* * *Please bring a few EUR 1 coins to keep the coin operated machinery going.* There is no drinks or food service in the basement (Kegelbahn) of Café Weidinger. So feel free to order something on arrival and take it downstairs before we get started. Alternatively bring your own drinks or food. Yes, this is possible! Its chatting, meeting (new) people, catching-up with the ones you might already know from our monthly MeetUps at the HIVE or other events. Communication is key, like always. Let’s enjoy a nice evening together with a modest sportive touch on the side! **Please show respect to the others and arrive on time.** As we need to line-up the players before getting starteted, hence late comers unfortunately can´t be admitted. **What is skittles play (Kegeln)?** Skittles play has a very long tradition in Europe and is the game before the Americans "invented" bowling. So we will play with 9 pins and smaller balls with less weight compared to bowling. **Costs:** To rent the skittle alley is just EUR 8 per hour for the whole group. We will divide costs by the number of participants. So expect a contribution of around *EUR 2-3 for the whole evening*. The number of participants is limited. The machinery of the skittle alley is coin operated and accepts EUR 1 coins only. So please bring along a few EUR 1 coins to keep the machinery going! **Participation Fee:** To help cover the Meetup maintenance fee, we recommend a donation of 1-2 Euros directly to the organizers. **Results:** The results of the evening (Igo is so kind to count the scores and enters theses for each participant in a spreadsheet) are published in the "pictures" area of the MeetUp. Historic results are availble there. **Cafe Weidinger** has not been renovated over the last at least 50 years. The skittles alley dates from 1964. You can feel this "special flair". A bit shaby, but inexpensive fun for a whole evening. It´s almost a museum of a skittles alley. **The difference between bowling and skittles play**: * The bowling lanes are covered with an oil film, the skittles lane is not. * In bowling, the ball is is considerably larger and heavier. * Bowling lanes are slightly curved, our lane is flat. * Bowling balls have three holes, our balls have none, one or two. Most of our balls have two holes. * Nine pins are thrown instead of ten. * In bowling, the pins are set up by so-called pin-setter machines and therefore stand freely in contrast to skittles, where the pins hang from strings. * Our skittles lane is an asphalt lane. * You do not need to rent or bring special shoes llike for bowling. But to play in sneakers or sportive footwear is more comfortable.

Hey Badminton Enthusiasts! **This meet-up is only for intermediate players and up!** Everyone is welcome to join our large weekly events, test their skills and have some fun together! However, ***this event is for the people that want to push their skill forward and would like to play during the week as well.*** The host will reserve courts in advance, that means please only register if you really plan to come (or cancel at least 24 hours before the event starts). The fee for this event is 12€: * If you plan on paying in cash, please bring the exact amount as the host might not have any change available * you can also pay via card on the spot We are meeting at about 18.55 pm near the reception by the lounge area (next to the courts). Come a bit earlier so you have time to change into workout/sports clothes. The locker rooms are free to use, but for the men lockers you need a padlock - or you can also take your bag of clothes upstairs to the courts if you do not have a padlock. Also, bring clean indoor sports shoes, your racket and a water bottle with you. If you are just passing through town and do not have a racket, it is possible to rent rackets, either from the club or from us. Sometimes the host or other members have spare rackets - please ask in the comment section below! If you are joining our events for the first time, **WELCOME!** We are an open and friendly group and we are sure you will develop connections with the people in our community in no time! Without further ado - let's play some (intermediate) badminton and have fun together!

Thank you for visiting this event page! * Are you an advanced badminton player? If yes - WELCOME! * The earlier you sign up, the bigger your chance to reserve a place - once 9 other players have signed up already, you move to the waiting list. * Once the waiting list has 3 or more members, I will try to book an additional court, but no guarantees. I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. You can still contact me if you want to play though. The fee per player will be €10.00 for 2 hours as the cost of both shuttles and court bookings have increased. But this should now cover also shuttles used during play. Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.

## [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/man-of-the-house-nemanja-zivanovic-english-standup-comedy-thecomedypub-tickets-1979016725299?aff=MeetUp) A brutally honest stand-up show about modern fatherhood, marriage & expectations. Nemanja Živanović live in Vienna, Feb 27. ## **MAN OF THE HOUSE** ### **Nemanja Živanović Live in Vienna** **An Honest, Sharp & Hilarious English Stand-Up Comedy Special @TheComedyPub** **Friday, February 27th, 2026** **Doors:** 20:30 \| **Show:** 21:00 **The Comedy Pub**, Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna **Language:** English **Age:** 18+ ## About the Show **Man of the House** is a full-length English stand-up comedy show about adulthood arriving whether you’re ready or not. In this sharp, personal, and deeply relatable hour, **Nemanja Živanović** explores what happens when a man becomes a stay-at-home father — and slowly realizes that everything he thought he knew about responsibility, masculinity, marriage, and “having it together” was wildly optimistic. This is comedy about: * becoming a parent without becoming a superhero * modern fatherhood without clichés or sentimentality * marriage as a daily negotiation * gender roles that no longer make sense * expectations vs. reality * and the quiet chaos of adult life Told with honesty, precision, and a strong observational edge, *Man of the House* finds humor in the moments no one prepares you for — the small decisions, the compromises, and the internal monologue you never say out loud. This is not parenting comedy. This is **life comedy**, seen from the inside. ## What Makes This Show Special Nemanja doesn’t perform characters or exaggerations — he performs **truth**. The kind that sneaks up on you, makes you laugh hard, and then makes you realize why. The show is: * Smart but never preachy * Personal without being self-pitying * Honest without being bitter * Relatable whether you’re a parent or not Whether you have kids, are thinking about it, or are simply watching your friends disappear into adulthood — this show will hit home. ## About the Comedian **Nemanja Živanović** is an internationally touring stand-up comedian. He spent the first five years of his career performing across the Balkans in Serbian, before transitioning to English and building a European audience. **Winner – Prague Funniest 2023** Nemanja’s comedy is grounded, observational, and precise — shaped by real experience rather than trends. His material focuses on relationships, identity, family, and the quiet absurdities of modern life. ## Who Is This Show For? ✔️ Fans of smart, story-driven stand-up ✔️ Parents and non-parents alike ✔️ People navigating adulthood, relationships, and expectations ✔️ Expats and international audiences ✔️ Couples looking for a thoughtful, funny date night ✔️ Anyone who enjoys comedy that goes deeper than punchlines If you like stand-up that feels **real**, this is your show. ## Venue: The Comedy Pub Vienna Vienna’s home for international stand-up comedy. An intimate venue with a full bar, a warm crowd, and a true comedy-club atmosphere — the perfect setting for a personal solo show. Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna U4 Kettenbrückengasse ## Event Details **Friday, February 27th, 2026** **Doors open:** 20:30 **Show starts:** 21:00 **The Comedy Pub, Vienna** **Language:** English **Tickets:** Available online Seating is limited — early arrival recommended ## Final Note *Man of the House* is a comedy show about trying to do the right thing — and realizing there may not be a clear definition of what that even means anymore. If you enjoy stand-up that’s honest, thoughtful, and genuinely funny, don’t miss **Nemanja Živanović live in Vienna**. Nemanja Živanović brings his English stand-up special *Man of the House* to Vienna. A sharp, honest comedy about fatherhood & modern life. Feb 27 @ The Comedy Pub.

In this a cappella beginners intensive with Lisy Lynn from the UK you will learn how to be the music behind the lyrics; how to underscore any scene; and how to take your musical improv to the next level (even in a power cut!) Work on your beat-boxing, body-percussion, rap, dance, acting and singing; add these to your improv experience - and you have the 7 pillars of Acaprov: The Improvised A Cappella Musical. This course is best suited to musical improvisers, freestyle rappers and singers who have not yet tried doing it a cappella, and are ready to take the next step. If you love improvising musicals but are not the most confident singer, worry not, pitching is not essential as non-singers can speak-sing, rap and do percussion to navigate the workshop playing to their strengths. It’s a supportive space. More Info & Registration [here](https://workshop.viennaimprov.org)

**Caller: Frank Buschelmann** **Band: The Rosenthorns** **Big Scioty Contra Dance** **temporarily returning to our long ago location for Jan-March - First Congregational Church, 444 E. Broad St., Columbus 43215** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle. Snacks to share are always welcome!

In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification. You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written. This talk will cover: --What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t) --How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows --Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development --Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects. **YouTube Link** TBA

Let's meet at the Nature Center for an approximate 4-mile hike, followed by an optional lunch at Nomad or Liberty Tavern (both are on Polaris Parkway) - we can decide which tavern during the hike!
