HerSpace @ Commonroom – Presence, Connection & Growth
Join us for a nurturing and empowering in-person afternoon at **commonroom** for a form of networking going deeper.
A local expression of our global **[Women Lead Community](https://women-lead-community.mn.co/),** each month we create a space for women to slow down, connect with themselves and others, and explore a new form of leadership grounded in **presence, purpose, and mutual support**. After a joint arrival, we take the time to reflect on our needs as well as what we each have to offer to the world. We have the opportunity to practice pitching our offers and needs in a safe space and connecting with other inspiring women who are eager to support each others growth.
Just come as you are – curious, present, and open. No need to prepare anything. Bring a friend or meet new ones. Have something to write with you for the reflection and bring business cards and flyers of your offers, if you have any.
The sessions are held in **English**. They are open to women of all backgrounds who are curious about co-creating a more conscious, caring, and connected world.

THURSDAY👋⚽FOOTBALL FRIENDLY 20:30-22:00 (Donaucity) w/ SORIN & Video Highlights
Things to know before playing:
Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls;
We play Thursday Night Football (outdoor only) . We play 90 minutes (kick off is at 20:30, and we meet at least 15 minutes before for a warm up phase). Post-Corona football matches are most likely between 14-16 and 28-32 players. If you would like to join please bring artificial turf shoes (like the ones for indoor turf) and shin pads (not mandatory but definitely recommendable).
All I ask is that you come with a good mood, be respectful to everyone, and pay online using the link below.

We play light: no sliding, hard tackling, fighting, screaming, & hopefully no injuries. 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’ll confirm the location, the pitches, and the dressing room numbers via our dedicated Football WhatsApp group. Keep an eye out for the group messages. See you all soon.

One small final note:
Please avoid trying to take justice in your hands. 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.

Comedy sein Vater – Absurd-witziges Stand-up Open Mic @TheComedyPub
**Die absurdeste deutsche Comedy-Show Wiens: jung, wild & unberechenbar. Gratis Eintritt – jeden Donnerstag im Comedy Pub.**
# [Hol dir deine Tickets hier!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-sein-vater-absurd-witziges-stand-up-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-CZ89PB?ref=MeetUp)
Willkommen zu **Comedy sein Vater**, der Show, die klingt wie ein Meme und sich auch so anfühlt. Jeden Donnerstag im *The Comedy Pub* übernehmen junge, wilde Comedians die Bühne, um mit absurden Ideen, schrägen Gags und gnadenlosem Humor das Publikum zum Lachen (und manchmal auch zum Kopfschütteln) zu bringen.
Hier gilt: nichts muss, alles kann. Von wahnwitzigen Gedankensprüngen über dunklen Humor bis zu völlig chaotischen Auftritten – **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Open Mic, bei dem Regeln aufhören und die Absurdität beginnt. Wer brave Comedy will, geht woanders hin. Wer das Unerwartete liebt, ist hier genau richtig.
## 🤔 Was ist ein Open Mic?
Ein Open Mic ist die Spielwiese der Stand-up-Comedians. Hier werden Ideen geboren, getestet und manchmal auch sofort wieder beerdigt – live, unzensiert und direkt vor Publikum. Genau deshalb ist es so spannend: du erlebst, wie Stand-up entsteht, wie Comedians Risiko eingehen und wie oft daraus die lustigsten Momente des Abends werden.
Bei **Comedy sein Vater** ist das Ganze noch ein Stück extremer: mehr Mut, mehr Chaos, mehr Überraschungen.
## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Zuhause für Chaos & Lacher
Austragungsort ist das **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Wien) – ein Irish Pub mit Herz und einem historischen Altbaukeller, der wie geschaffen ist für wilde Stand-up-Abende.
Oben wartet die Bar mit Drinks und Pub-Atmosphäre, unten der Keller mit Underground-Flair. Niedrige Decken, warme Lichter, intime Stimmung – genau der richtige Ort, um Comedy an ihre Grenzen zu bringen. Dank der U4-Station **Kettenbrückengasse** gleich ums Eck ist die Anreise so einfach wie ein Lacher auf einen guten Witz.
## 💡 Eintritt frei – Spenden willkommen
Hier gilt: Lachen kostet nichts, aber wer lacht, sollte geben. Der Eintritt ist frei, Spenden sind willkommen. Jede Reaktion des Publikums – ob Applaus, Gelächter oder betretenes Schweigen – hilft den Comedians, besser zu werden. Aber wer herzhaft gelacht hat, darf das auch im Spendenhut zeigen.
## 🎟️ Regeln für das Publikum
Ja, auch im Chaos braucht es ein paar Spielregeln:
* Sei pünktlich – sonst verpasst du den besten Wahnsinn.
* Respektiere die Bühne – auch wenn’s absurd wird.
* Lachen, Stöhnen, Kopfschütteln – alles erlaubt, aber bitte keine Zwischenrufe.
* Kein Heckling – das endet nie so lustig, wie du denkst.
* Spenden sind Liebe – und Comedy sein Vater lebt davon.
## 🎉 Warum Donnerstag?
Weil am Donnerstag alles passieren darf. **Comedy sein Vater** ist das perfekte Ventil für Wochenend-Vibes, die schon zu früh kommen. Hier siehst du Comedians, die an die Grenze gehen – mit Humor, der nicht brav sein will, sondern mutig, absurd und manchmal gnadenlos ehrlich ist.
Wenn du eine Show suchst, die dich überrascht, irritiert und garantiert zum Lachen bringt, dann bist du hier genau richtig. Willkommen beim Chaos. Willkommen bei **Comedy sein Vater**.

Midsummer!- The Wiccan Fellowship Wheel of the Year Open Ritual!
**In Wicca and other Neo-Pagan traditions the "Wheel of the Year" is central: Eight yearly festivals that echo the seasonal rites of our ancestors.**
**This month's celebration is MIDSUMMER!**
**Midsummer**, also known as **Litha**, is the radiant crown of the solar year—the longest day and the height of light. The sun stands at its zenith, spilling golden power across the land, and nature pulses with abundance, vitality, and color. In Wiccan tradition, this is a time of **honoring the peak of life and energy**, when the God is in his full power, and the Goddess, heavy with the promise of harvest, blesses the earth with fullness.
Though the light is strong, Midsummer is also a time of **turning**—a sacred pause before the descent begins. From this point onward, the days slowly shorten, and we are reminded that even the brightest fire contains the seed of transformation. The bonfires of Litha call us to celebrate life, to dance and feast, to honor love, passion, and the light within ourselves and the world. It is a time for magic, for communion with the fae and nature spirits, and for affirming joy, strength, and protection.
As we stand at the zenith of the sun’s path, we are invited to shine boldly, to embrace our power, and to offer our light in service of what is good, true, and beautiful. 🌞🔥🌻
**TICKETS: You can pay cash at the door (EUR 20) or buy a ticket online HERE (EUR 15):**
**[https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fellowship-of-the-western-mysteries-open-ritual-tickets-1979108345337?aff=erelexpmlt](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fellowship-of-the-western-mysteries-open-ritual-tickets-1979108345337?aff=erelexpmlt)**
**(Online tickets are non-refundable.)**
**The event and the ritual will be held in English** unless otherwise noted. We sometimes do have other groups host rituals, and sometimes they work in other languages. If that is the case it will be noted here.
**Doors open at 19:30**. Ritual talk-through will start at 20:00 or so and the ritual will start soon after the talk-through. Ritual length varies but the ritual itself should be over by 21:30 to 22:00. Afterwords there will be time for socializing and merrymaking, so plan to stay longer if you're feeling social and you can. If not of course you can go when you wish. :-) There is an open bar on-site. :-)
**Attire:** Street clothes are fine but try to come dressed as much as possible in a single colour- black and white are best. If you have ritual attire (robes etc.) and would like to wear them, feel free.
Beginners and experienced practioners alike, as well as the merely curious are welcomed. We will explain everything you need to do before the ritual- it's possible (and completely fine) to jump right in.
The environment is friendly and welcoming and newcomers are welcomed! We do a full talk-through before the ritual, explain what the ritual is about and what everyone needs to know and understand, and we'll guide you through the whole thing, so there is really no problem coming if you have no idea what to expect.
Run in partnership with our friends at The Hexen/Heiden Stammtisch [Feuerkreise.at](https://feuerkreise.at/forum/index.php)/ [https://www.facebook.com/groups/271329456233561](https://www.facebook.com/groups/271329456233561).

Sunday Screenings in the Living Room
Weekly screenings from a large archive of many of the most significant, yet seldom seen and rarely accessible cinematic masterpieces in the history of film - from its earliest beginnings to the present day. Screenings are in original language, if English, or original language with English subtitles.
Films are selected democratically on the inspiration of a brief pre-screening discussion. The selected title is typically a "neglected gem" that most of us discover together for the first time. Individual taste is not a criterion and all participants are expected to put the interests of the group as a whole above personal preference or prejudice. In this sense, the emphasis is on openness, exploration, and surprise. Each screening is followed by an in-depth group discussion, led and moderated by the curator.
WARNNG: FilmStory is not just about watching movies! Rather, it's a socially responsible, intellectual engagement, involving an organic approach to group study of film language, philosophy, art, history, politics, and technology. In this sense, the film is always merely the current highlight in an explorative, ongoing group discussion.
**FilmStory** is a members-only series that involves a closely knit community of cinephiles. Events take place every Sunday in a comfortable, private setting with limited capacity. Participation is reserved primarily for regular members, but we're always ready to make new friends!
Non-regular members may request to meet the community and, upon acceptance as a "new joiner," are welcome to participate in one event, according to space availability. New joiners are asked to make a €6 member dues contribution in advance of the requested date. New members receive a message of confirmation and the address of the Living Room in 1080 Vienna upon receipt of their dues contribution.
**FilmStory** is presented and hosted by **[KulturSalon Wien](https://www.meetup.com/kultursalon-wien/)**.
Comedy Factory – English Open Mic @TheComedyPub
**Comedy Factory: Vienna’s wild & international English Open Mic. Fresh jokes, new comedians & free entry every Saturday.**
## [GET YOUR TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/comedy-factory-english-open-mic-thecomedypub-tickets-46HDTR?ref=MeetUp)
🔥 Saturday nights start with laughter! Welcome to **Comedy Factory**, Vienna’s most international and experimental English Stand-up Comedy Open Mic. Every Saturday at 18:30, The Comedy Pub transforms into a comedy playground where fresh jokes are built, tested, and unleashed.
## Event Description:
At **Comedy Factory**, anything can happen. New comedians step on stage for the very first time, while experienced performers bring their sharpest jokes and wildest new ideas. The result? A raw, unpredictable, and unforgettable night of comedy.
With **10–12 comedians each week**, you’ll see a mix of bold experiments, risky punchlines, and polished sets. No two shows are ever the same – every Saturday offers a brand-new lineup of voices from Vienna’s thriving international comedy scene.
This show is perfect if you’re:
* an **Expat or international living in Vienna** looking for English comedy
* a **local curious about stand-up culture** from around the world
* a **tourist wanting a unique night out** in Vienna
* or simply someone who loves to laugh at fresh, unfiltered comedy.
## 🤔 What is an Open Mic?
An Open Mic is where comedy is born. Comedians test their newest material, experiment with wild ideas, and interact with the audience in real time. Sometimes the jokes kill, sometimes they bomb – but that’s exactly the fun. As an audience member, you get to witness comedy in its rawest form, up close and personal.
## 🍻 The Comedy Pub – Vienna’s Home of Stand-up
The show takes place in **The Comedy Pub** (Kettenbrückengasse 7, 1050 Vienna). Unlike our underground cellar shows, **Comedy Factory happens upstairs in the main pub area** – bright, welcoming, international, and buzzing with energy.
Grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the only dedicated stand-up comedy club in Vienna. Centrally located right by **U4 Kettenbrückengasse station**, it’s the perfect meeting point before heading out into your Saturday night.
## 💡 Free Entry – Donations Welcome
Comedy should be for everyone. That’s why entry is free! But if you had a great time (and you will 😉), we invite you to drop a donation in the bucket at the end of the show. It’s the best way to support the comedians who made you laugh.
## 🎟️ Audience Rules
To keep the show fun and fair for everyone, we ask for a few simple things:
* Be on time – comedy waits for no one.
* Respect the stage – no talking during sets.
* Laugh loud, clap hard – comedians feed off your energy.
* No heckling – it never ends well.
* Show love with a donation if you laughed.
## 🎉 Why Saturday?
Because weekends deserve a big laugh. **Comedy Factory** is the perfect early-evening start to your Saturday – international, experimental, and guaranteed to surprise you. With a new lineup every week, it’s always fresh, always different, always funny.
Start your night with us, then take the laughter out into Vienna.

Blue Zone Dinner — The Long Table: When Strangers Become Family
Across the world, different cultures have the same word for the same sacred thing.
In the Arab world, it's ***sufra*** — the spread that holds the room.
Across Spain and Latin America, ***sobremesa*** — the hours no one wants to leave the table.
In Turkey and the Eastern Mediterranean, ***keyif*** — unhurried pleasure (the Greeks call it *kefi*, same ancient root).
Across Italy and the Lusophone world — Portugal, Brazil, Mozambique — ***convivio*** — living together through the meal.
In Southern Africa, ***ubuntu*** — "I am because we are."
In Okinawa, ***moai*** — the lifelong circle that eats, walks, and grows old together.
Across Malaysia and Indonesia, ***makan-makan*** — the easy, communal feast.
In the Sikh tradition across South Asia, ***langar*** — where every person eats as equal, seated on the same floor.
Eight cultures. Eight words. One truth: **the long table, the slow meal, the people who start as strangers and end as family.**
The Blue Zones research — Dan Buettner's work on the five places where humans live longest and healthiest (Okinawa, Sardinia, Ikaria, Nicoya, Loma Linda) — keeps pointing back to this. Not the recipe. The table. The presence. The time.
So let's do it.
**What:** One long table. Food we cook together. Hours of real conversation — emotions, relationships, philosophy, and yes, politics — not as sides, but as the questions we all carry. Here, what usually divides a room becomes the ground we meet on.
**What we leave behind:** Phones. All digital devices. None of the cultures we're honouring tonight needed them at the table — and the Blue Zones research is unambiguous: real longevity, real connection, real nervous-system repair happens only where we are not being scrolled into a loop.
**What we bring:** Ourselves. Our culture. Whatever we're carrying. Whatever we want to share.
**Open to everyone:** Whether your grandmother cooked in Beirut, Madrid, Istanbul, Naples, Johannesburg, Okinawa, Jakarta, or Amritsar — or nowhere at all — you belong at this table. The whole point is that nobody's culture runs the room. Every tradition sits beside every other.
**Before the event:** A poll goes out, so we choose the menu together.
**Now:** I'm looking for the right location — outdoors if possible, somewhere near Vienna. A garden, a terrace, a piece of land with trees and sky. If you have a spot or know one, message me. This is ours to build.
Come as you are. Stay as long as it takes.
*A small ritual before the ritual: a short call beforehand, 10 to 15 minutes. Not to screen you — to meet you. Every culture at this table starts a meal with a greeting. Ours starts here.*
— Tom

Social Book Club - Fantasy Circle - Assassin's Apprentice
Welcome to the "Fantasy and Historical Fiction" Reading Circle of the Social Book Club!
We will meet to discuss **Robin Hobb's** fantasy novel **"Assassin's Apprentice"** (435 pages).
The meeting point is at JO&JOE on the 5th floor. Drinks and some food can be bought there, so if possible please buy something for reasons of politeness, if you can afford it, since they provide the space for free.
Book Description:
*In a faraway land where members of the royal family are named for the virtues they embody, one young boy will become a walking enigma.*
*Born on the wrong side of the sheets, Fitz, son of Chivalry Farseer, is a royal bastard, cast out into the world, friendless and lonely. Only his magical link with animals - the old art known as the Wit - gives him solace and companionship. But the Wit, if used too often, is a perilous magic, and one abhorred by the nobility.*
*So when Fitz is finally adopted into the royal household, he must give up his old ways and embrace a new life of weaponry, scribing, courtly manners; and how to kill a man secretly, as he trains to become a royal assassin.*

Engaging in men’s work is the new way to forge friendships while being open-minded to personal growth. Many men experience healthier relationships, personally and professionally, by engaging in this work.
Open Men’s Group is a container for men to share vulnerably without receiving judgment or feedback.
We believe that emotionally mature, powerful, compassionate, and purpose-driven men will help heal some of society’s deepest wounds. We support the powerful brilliance of men and we are willing to look at, and take full responsibility for, the pain we are also capable of creating – and suffering. We care deeply about men, our families, communities, and the planet.
