for **LGBTQIA+** **[free event with registration](https://wearevillage.org/en/shop/buddyprogram-meetup/w16-2026/)** Welcome to our second “we are village” Buddy Program event. Buddy Program is a community project that helps queer people in Berlin find a supportive community to navigate the city, discover hidden gems, and build genuine friendships. At this welcome event, we will introduce our Buddy Program and we will provide you with an opportunity to meet other queer people who share your interests and passions. We will have some fun games and provide room for genuine connections to form. **More about the program** The Buddy Program was created for queer people living in Berlin. Whether you’re new to Berlin or a long-time local who loves sharing your city. Or if you’re already settled but you’d like to “step up” your relationships and engage on a deeper level. The Buddy Program values deep connections, meaningful conversations, and community care. By combining in-person meetups, online interaction through the **we are village** app, and interest-based matching, the program creates a space for mutual support, deeper connection, and a sense of solidarity. **I’m not a new arrival to Berlin but I’d love to share my tips and tricks about Berlin!** Everyone, regardless of their experience, is welcome. Our first goal is to connect people. **General information** Language: This event will be in German and/or English depending on participant needs. **Cost**: This event is free of charge. 🔵 **[kostenlos mit Anmeldung](https://wearevillage.org/shop/buddyprogram-meetup/w16-2026/)** Willkommen zu unserem zweiten „we are village“ Buddy-Programm-Event.

Egal, ob du neu in Berlin bist oder schon lange hier lebst und deine Stadt gerne mit anderen teilst. Oder vielleicht bist du bereits angekommen, möchtest aber deine Beziehungen vertiefen. Das Buddy-Programm schätzt tiefe Verbindungen, bedeutungsvolle Gespräche und Gemeinschaftspflege. Durch eine Kombination aus persönlichen Treffen, Online-Interaktion über die we are village App und interessenbasiertem Matching schafft das Programm einen Raum für gegenseitige Unterstützung, tiefere Verbindungen und ein Gefühl der Solidarität. Ich bin zwar kein Neuankömmling in Berlin, aber ich würde gerne meine Tipps und Tricks über Berlin teilen! Jeder, unabhängig von seiner Erfahrung, ist willkommen.

**Nerds, Creatives & Dreamers** is a small, curated gathering in Berlin for two kinds of people who almost never end up in the same room: the ones who build things with code, and the ones who build things with imagination. Developers and painters. Engineers and writers. Founders and photographers. In daily life these worlds rarely collide — here, that collision is the whole point. Just a good space, a deliberate mix of curious people, and the freedom to let the evening unfold. Come ready to be surprised by who you meet and where the evening takes you. A room full of curious humans. We’re here to socialize as human beings. And if you do exchange contacts — make it personal, not transactional. **🛠 If You Build Things** · Developers & Engineers · Designers & Product People · Founders · People Who Code for Fun **🎨 If You Create Things** · Writers & Journalists · Photographers · Artists & Painters · Anyone With a Side Obsession Our event on Luma: https://luma.com/0xehvknp?tk=vaEmcM **📝 Note:** You are welcome to attend our Friday social meetup! The event is free. The space is generously hosted for us — the only thing we ask is that you support it by buying a drink. A small gesture that keeps evenings like this possible. **🤝 Community:** This is a space built on curiosity and respect. We keep it that way — for everyone.

**Join us for outdoor grass volleyball in Hasenheide park!** This event is not suitable for complete beginners. We play with two nets. The "chill court" is for mixed-level play with 3v3 up to 5v5. The "competitive court" is for higher-level 2v2 play with beach rules. Be sure to wear suitable sports clothing and perhaps bring a drink. There are no facilities such as changing rooms and showers in the park. A nearby public toilet is also available, but it might be closed, dirty, or not have toilet paper. **Location**: We play in the narrow clearing, located between the two paths in the center of Hasenheide park, on the southern side. Updates will be posted in the WhatsApp group, which you can join via [https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley](https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley) **RSVP**: Put yourself on the waitlist, even if other people are already on there. The waitlist is not chronological, so even if there are 30 people on there, you still have a chance! If you get a spot, you will be moved to the attending list and notified by Meetup. This is a free event with limited space. **If you can't make it, promptly update your RSVP to NO** so others can take your place. If you do not show up or cancel last minute, you will be marked as a no-show, reducing your chances of getting off the waitlist in the future. **Payment:** This event is free, but you are invited to make a 2 EUR donation towards equipment. **Attending**: Do not join if you have an infectious disease. You need to be on the attendee list to attend; **being on the waitlist is not sufficient**. Do not bring friends that are not on the attendee list. **Showing up without having a valid RSVP will get you banned**. **Safety**: Mind the terrain. The grass might be uneven and contain items such as bottle caps. It is not suitable for diving or playing like on a beach. Be careful not to twist your ankle. Keep an eye on your belongings since we are in a public park. We do *not* have a full first aid kit available. Please inform the organizer of any medical conditions that might require attention during the event. Some things you *might* want to bring: \* Drink \* Snacks \* Insect spray \* Sunscreen \* Toilet paper, if you wish to use the public toilet Join our WhatsApp community via [https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley](https://tinyurl.com/ParkVolley) Follow us on Insta at [https://www.instagram.com/berlinvolleyball](https://www.instagram.com/berlinvolleyball) Pictures might be taken and shared publicly, such as on Meetup or Instagram.

Dodgeball is back again! If you’ve been wanting to come out, this is an easy one to join. We’ll be playing for about 1.5 to 2 hours, you do not need to bring any equipment, and no experience is needed. We use a specific set of rules and equipment to make the games run better and keep them fun for everybody, not just people who already know how to play. If it rains, the event will be canceled.

We’re still working to get more people into these Meetups, but our goal is to give PlayYourCourt members a few social tennis outings each week in addition to your practice sessions and Challenge League matches. These Meetups are co-ed, super laid back, and all skill levels are welcome. Post your skill level and a suggested court in the comments section so we can round up as many players as we can for some tennis fun! Also, if you’re looking to meet new practice partners or play some matches and you aren’t already in the PlayYourCourt Community, you can go here to see what we’re all about and sign up: https://www.playyourcourt.com/tennis-community/columbus-oh/meetup/ If you love tennis, we’d love to have you! Be sure and watch the quick video that explains how everything works. Happy hitting! - Scott
