The Cosmopolitan Friday 🪐 Global Mixer in Aldgate
The Cosmopolitan Friday 🪐 Global Mixer in Aldgate
The weekend trajectory for international minds. Skip the uninspired Friday as we take over a sleek, modern architectural space at *The Running Horse* \- a brilliant hidden gem tucked away in Aldgate \- for a dedicated evening connecting our collective\. This is a fluid weekend start designed for global nomads, creatives, and cosmopolitan minds. Whether you are seeking variety in your social circle or starting your weekend with a sharp perspective, come mix with an ambitious, international crowd of peers over exceptional cocktails, premium pours, and weekend energy. **The Evening Flow** 📍 **The Spot:** The Running Horse, 7 Piazza Walk, London E1 8QH. It's a striking contemporary space hidden right behind the main roads, just a 2-minute walk from *Aldgate East, Aldgate* or 7 minutes from *Liverpool Street*. 🍸 **The Vibe:** A beautifully designed layout with an upscale, vibrant atmosphere. The perfect backdrop for crisp weekend styling, fresh energy, and effortless introductions. 🗺️ **The Afters:** We kick off with casual, fluid mingling over drinks. As the night matures and the room's energy peaks, those who want to keep the momentum going will transition together into spontaneous late-night spots in the area. **How to Join** 🥂 **The Guestlist:** Entry is entirely free, with premium pours and small plates available to order directly from the bar. Please ensure you are on the confirmed RSVP list. 📱 **The Pivot:** Space in our dedicated zone is limited. If your Friday plans pivot, please update your status to "Not going" immediately so a peer can take the spot. **The Collective** World Citizens is an independent, volunteer-led social collective established in 2012. An entirely free, non-commercial passion project, we exist to create a rare space where international minds, young expats, and diverse cosmopolitan perspectives seamlessly converge. It is a fluid weekend anchor in a fast-paced capital, designed simply for real conversations, sharp perspectives, and organic connection. **DISCLAIMER:** We are a 100% volunteer-run team gathering in our personal time. Though we have high standards, all our activities are private and informal, so we are not liable for any damage or inconvenience, nor subject to any service expectations.

Please grab your own drink or snacks at the counter to support our host venue and keep our spot welcome. **✨ THE COLLECTIVE** This space organically brings together the city's international minds, creatives, and TCKs,.

Jun 13 Just Play Mahjong Club(Chinese, American Styles &Japanese Riichi)
Jun 13 Just Play Mahjong Club(Chinese, American Styles &Japanese Riichi)
### 📅 EVENT DETAILS 📍 **Where:** Aldgate Tower (just outside Aldgate East Station, Exit 1) 🙋 **Who:** Players who already know how to play with scores (not suitable for beginners) ☕ **Included:** Instructor help, free tea, coffee, and unbeatable vibes ## 🀄 WANT TO PLAY MAHJONG REGULARLY? Mahjong is still a niche board game in London — and since it needs **4 players**, it can be hard to organise regular games with just your own friends or family. In many parts of Asia, **Mahjong parlours** bring people together to play. While we’re **not** running a commercial Mahjong club, we *are* here to build a **community**. Many of our players started as complete beginners in our workshops — and now they’re **hooked**! That’s why we created our **🎟️ Just Play tickets**. ### 🌏 DIFFERENT MAHJONG STYLES WELCOME ### 🇭🇰 Hong Kong Style (Main Style) Our main style is **Hong Kong Mahjong**, with a **3 fan minimum to win**.If you know how to play other Chinese styles like **Taiwanese**, **Sichuan**, or **British Mahjong**, you’re still welcome! We’ll provide **scoring cards** to help you adapt. ⚠️ However, these tables are **not suitable for beginners**. If you haven’t yet graduated from Level 1 or Level 2 of our workshops, or if you don’t know how to score, please join our learner workshops first to build confidence. ### 🇯🇵 Japanese Riichi (Growing Community) Riichi Mahjong is **new to our community**, but we love its fast pace and strategic complexity!If you already know how to play Riichi — \*\*amazing! Please join us.\*\*If you play Chinese Mahjong and want to try Riichi, one of our instructors or friendly regulars might help, but we **can’t guarantee full teaching support yet**. You're welcome to learn by playing alongside others. ### 🇺🇸 American Mahjong (New Community in 2026) We’re excited to add **American Mahjong** to our offerings. It’s quite different from Chinese Mahjong, so we’ll run newbie workshops and regular Just Play sessions from 2026. **Note**: Just Play bookings require solid prior knowledge of American rules. However, we encourage cross‑style learning, so if you already know one style of Mahjong, learn another with us, so you can play at any table. ## 💷 OUR BEST PRICE PROMISE We’re doing our best to keep **Just Play tickets affordable** for a 2-hour session — that’s our **best price promise**. 🙌 Unlike clubs that charge entry or venues that require a minimum spend, our ticket price covers only what’s needed: venue, staff, admin cost. And yes — with a booked ticket, **YOU ARE GUARNATEED A SEAT AT THE TABLE**, and we also provide **free tea, coffee**, and the occasional **festive treat**. ☕🍪 We're not a charity, but we are **deeply committed** to creating a welcoming Mahjong community. 💛 Your support helps us keep the tiles clicking, and we love seeing familiar faces return week after week! ## 📱 JOIN OUR MAHJONG WHATSAPP COMMUNITY Stay connected with fellow players in our friendly WhatsApp group — a space to ask questions, get updates on upcoming events, and even arrange private games outside of our Saturday sessions. It's the easiest way to stay in the loop and grow your Mahjong circle! [LINK HERE](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IQXv3nGfbeMCfvI6HsGjfZ "https://chat.whatsapp.com/IQXv3nGfbeMCfvI6HsGjfZ") **Important Notes** 1. Each attendee must be registered to our building in addition to the meetup ticketing. If you book two tickets, we will need both individuals’ full names and email addresses for registration. 2. On **the same week**, you will receive an email from "Aldgate Tower" with your **building entry invitation**. This email includes a **unique visitor QR code**, which you’ll need to scan at the ground floor speed gates. Then, head straight up to the **6th floor**, where we’ll be ready to welcome you. 3. Please check your **spam or junk folder** if you don’t see the email. Still nothing? Send us a message / whatsapp us on +44 7423 755734 , and we’ll assist you promptly.
