Lernen durch Spielen: interaktiver Spieleabend
Was wäre, wenn wir wichtige Fähigkeiten fßr den Alltag und den Beruf trainieren kÜnnten, während wir einfach nur gemeinsam lachen und eine gute Zeit haben?
Bei diesem Spieleabend nutzen wir die gesamte Bandbreite moderner Spiele als das, was sie im Kern sind: Ein absolut stressfreies Labor fĂźr soziale Kompetenz, strategisches Denken und echtes Miteinander. Ganz im Sinne von "Lernen zum SpaĂ" lassen wir die graue Theorie komplett weg und stĂźrzen uns direkt ins gemeinsame Erleben!
Wir haben fĂźr jeden Geschmack die passende spielerische Herausforderung dabei â und jede davon schult ganz bestimmte Fähigkeiten:
* **Deduktionsspiele (Logik & Analytisches Denken):** Bei diesen Formaten geht es um messerscharfe Logik und das systematische Kombinieren von Fakten. Du lernst, verstreute Informationen strukturiert zu verknßpfen, die richtigen Fragen zu stellen und durch ein präzises Ausschlussverfahren Geheimnisse zu lßften.
* **Worker-Placement-Spiele (Strategie & Ressourcenmanagement):** Hier lernst du, knappe Ressourcen optimal zu verwalten, langfristig zu planen und deine Strategie flexibel anzupassen, wenn ein Mitspieler dir einen wertvollen Platz wegschnappt. Das ist angewandtes Projektmanagement im Kleinformat!
* **Social Deduction Games (Psychologie & Menschenkenntnis):** Hier stehen geheime Identitäten und das feine Spiel mit der Wahrheit im Vordergrund. Du schärfst deine Wahrnehmung, lernst zwischen den Zeilen zu lesen, KĂśrpersprache zu deuten und deine eigene Ăberzeugungskraft beim Bluffen und Argumentieren gezielt einzusetzen.
* **Kooperative Spiele (Teamwork & Empathie):** Bei diesen Team-Highlights gewinnen oder verlieren wir nur gemeinsam. Hier trainierst du Vertrauen, intensive Koordination untereinander und die Fähigkeit, dich vollkommen auf die Perspektive und Denkweise deiner Mitspieler einzustellen.
### Was wir an diesem Abend ganz nebenbei lernen:
* **Kommunikation & Flexibilität:** Egal ob Kooperation oder Wettbewerb â wir schulen unsere Ausdrucksweise, die Wahrnehmung unseres GegenĂźbers und das gemeinsame LĂśsen komplexer Probleme.
* **Resilienz & Emotionale Stärke:** Der spielerische Umgang mit kniffligen Situationen und Team-Herausforderungen trainiert unsere emotionale Intelligenz und Gelassenheit fßr das echte Leben.
Bring super gerne auch deine eigenen Favoriten aus diesen Bereichen mit. Ob du neue Taktiken ausprobieren, deine Logik schärfen oder einfach nur tolle neue Menschen kennenlernen willst: Du bist hier genau richtig!
\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-
What if we could train essential skills for everyday life and our careers while simply laughing together and having a great time?
At this game night, we use the full spectrum of modern games for what they truly are at their core: an absolutely stress-free laboratory for social competence, strategic thinking, and genuine togetherness. In the spirit of "Learning for Fun," we skip the dry theory completely and dive straight into the shared experience!
We have the perfect playful challenge for every taste â and each one trains very specific skills:
* **Worker Placement Games (Strategy & Resource Management):** Here you learn to manage scarce resources optimally, plan long-term, and flexibly adapt your strategy when another player snatches a valuable spot from you. This is applied project management in miniature!
* **Deduction Games (Logic & Analytical Thinking):** These formats are all about razor-sharp logic and systematically combining facts. You learn to connect scattered pieces of information in a structured way, ask the right questions, and uncover secrets through a precise process of elimination.
* **Social Deduction Games (Psychology & Reading People):** Here, secret identities and the subtle game of truth take center stage. You sharpen your perception, learn to read between the lines, interpret body language, and purposefully use your own power of persuasion when bluffing and arguing.
* **Cooperative Games (Teamwork & Empathy):** In these team highlights, we only win or lose together. Here you train trust, intense coordination with one another, and the ability to adapt completely to the perspective and mindset of your fellow players.
### What we learn along the way:
* **Communication & Flexibility:** Whether cooperation or competition â we train our way of expression, the perception of our counterpart, and solving complex problems together.
* **Resilience & Emotional Strength:** Dealing playfully with tricky situations and team challenges trains our emotional intelligence and composure for real life.
Feel free to bring your own favorites from these categories. Whether you want to try out new tactics, sharpen your logic, or just meet great new people: you've come to the right place!
7 YEARS VILLA VIDA PARTY @CELESTE
Celeste
Seven years of Villa Vida.
We come together at Celeste on June 19 to mark a moment of continuity, pressure, and care. This night holds celebration and urgency at the same time.
Villa Vida started as a space for queer life in Vienna that centers presence, voice, and collective strength. Over seven years, it grew into a hub for organizing, gathering, and creating. A place where art, music, and community work sit side by side.
These years hold many forms of work:
1. queer joy built through shared nights and events
2. radical resistance expressed through culture and action
3. space for queer youth to be seen and supported
4. consistent focus on disabled, POC, and marginalized communities
5. ongoing organizing in the heart of Vienna
This work did not stay abstract. It stayed present. In rooms, in conversations, in performances, in care networks that formed around need.
We continue because the need continues.
This night also responds to current pressure. Funds from the event go toward rising rent costs and the Queer Vienna Mutual Aid Fund. Both are essential to keeping community infrastructure alive and accessible.
Villa Vida plans to continue creating and collaborating for as long as capacity allows. Support at every level helps sustain that path.
Entry follows a pay-what-you-can model. No one gets turned away for lack of funds. Give what feels possible. Come as you are.
We gather, we celebrate, we fund what keeps us alive.
Line-up coming soon.

Comedy Factory â English Open Mic @TheComedyPub
**Comedy Factory: Viennaâs 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)
đĽ Saturday nights start with laughter! Welcome to **Comedy Factory**, Viennaâs 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 **10â12 comedians each week**, youâll see a mix of bold experiments, risky punchlines, and polished sets. No two shows are ever the same â every Saturday offers a brand-new lineup of voices from Viennaâs thriving international comedy scene.
This show is perfect if youâre:
* 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.
## đ¤ 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 â but thatâs exactly the fun. As an audience member, you get to witness comedy in its rawest form, up close and personal.
## đť The Comedy Pub â Viennaâs Home of Stand-up
The show takes place in **The Comedy Pub** (KettenbrĂźckengasse 7, 1050 Vienna). Unlike our underground cellar shows, **Comedy Factory happens upstairs in the main pub area** â 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 KettenbrĂźckengasse station**, itâs the perfect meeting point before heading out into your Saturday night.
## đĄ Free Entry â Donations Welcome
Comedy should be for everyone. Thatâs why entry is free! But if you had a great time (and you will đ), we invite you to drop a donation in the bucket at the end of the show. Itâs the best way to support the comedians who made you laugh.
## đď¸ Audience Rules
To keep the show fun and fair for everyone, we ask for a few simple things:
* Be on time â comedy waits for no one.
* Respect the stage â no talking during sets.
* Laugh loud, clap hard â comedians feed off your energy.
* No heckling â it never ends well.
* Show love with a donation if you laughed.
## đ Why Saturday?
Because weekends deserve a big laugh. **Comedy Factory** is the perfect early-evening start to your Saturday â international, experimental, and guaranteed to surprise you. With a new lineup every week, itâs always fresh, always different, always funny.
Start your night with us, then take the laughter out into Vienna.

**[GRATIS TICKETS BUCHEN!!!](https://www.universe.com/events/deutsches-stand-up-comedy-open-mic-lachkrampf-thecomedypub-tickets-PFLZ8G?ref=MeetUp)**
Bereit fĂźr einen Abend voller Lacher und unerwarteter Comedy-Momente? Willkommen bei **Lachkrampf**, dem deutschen Open Mic im **The Comedy Pub**! Hier probieren erfahrene Comedians neue Gags aus, und mutige Neulinge wagen sich zum ersten Mal ans Mikrofon. Von Ăźberraschenden One-Linern bis hin zu schrägen Alltagsgeschichten â hier ist alles mĂśglich!
### đ¤ **Was ist ein Open Mic?**
Ein **Open Mic** ist die Spielwiese der Comedians. Hier testen Profis neues Material und Anfänger wagen ihre ersten Schritte ins Rampenlicht. Es kann grandios werden... oder grandios schiefgehen â aber genau das macht den Charme aus! Das Publikum ist live dabei, wenn neue Witze entstehen oder alte Pointen in neuem Glanz erstrahlen.
### đť **The Comedy Pub â Wiens Einziger Stand-Up Comedy Club**
Mitten im Herzen Wiens, in der **KettenbrĂźckengasse 7**, findet ihr **The Comedy Pub** â den einzigen echten Stand-Up Comedy Club der Stadt! In gemĂźtlicher Pub-Atmosphäre, mit einem breiten Angebot an Getränken und Snacks, kĂśnnt ihr die besten Comedians Wiens live erleben. Hier wird gelacht, gefeiert und jede Menge improvisiert.
### đĄ **Warum ist der Eintritt frei? (Spenden Willkommen!)**
Comedy lebt vom Publikum â ohne eure Reaktionen funktioniert es nicht! Euer Lachen, Klatschen oder auch das betretene Schweigen helfen den Comedians, ihre Gags zu verbessern. Deshalb ist der Eintritt kostenlos, aber Spenden sind herzlich willkommen. Wenn ihr einen tollen Abend hattet, zeigt uns ein bisschen Liebe.
### đď¸ **Verhaltensregeln fĂźr das Publikum:**
Damit der Abend fĂźr alle unvergesslich wird, bitten wir euch um Folgendes:
* **Seid pĂźnktlich:** Wir starten pĂźnktlich!
* **Befolgt die Anweisungen:** Ist wirklich nicht schwer.
* **Lacht, wenn es lustig ist:** Eure Reaktionen machen die Show aus.
* **Spendet, wenn es euch gefallen hat:** Damit unterstĂźtzt ihr die lokale Comedy-Szene.
* **Kein Zwischenrufen:** Ihr werdet verlieren. Jedes Mal.
* **Nicht quatschen während der Show:** Respektiert die Comedians und die anderen Gäste.
Dies ist nicht euer Wohnzimmer â es ist ein Privileg, hier zu sein. Wenn ihr die Show, das Publikum oder die Comedians stĂśrt, fliegt ihr raus. Keine RĂźckerstattung, keine zweite Chance. Wir sind hier fĂźr gute Vibes und groĂartige Comedy â versaut das nicht!

Codex Community Build Meetup
Hello everyone!
We're excited to announce **Vienna's first official** **Codex Community Build Meetup**, co-hosted with **Vienna AI Engineering** on Saturday, June 20!
It's a full-day, hands-on event for learning to build with Codex (OpenAI's coding agent) and with AI agents in general. This isn't a lecture: bring your laptop, pick the track that fits your level, and spend the day building alongside mentors and Codex experts. Come with an idea or just show up ready to learn. The goal is to leave with something you made, a clearer sense of how AI agents fit into real software work, and new people in Vienna's builder community.
Whether you're already using Codex or simply curious about coding agents, this is your chance to connect with peers and see how AI is transforming the way we build software.
âââââââââââââââââââââââââââââ
â ď¸ IMPORTANT: [Register on Luma](https://luma.com/9dmqcdn0), not here!

Run+B-fast
Hi Running fellows,
Whether youâre a walker, new to running, a semi-pro, a marathonist or a sprint star - if you want to start your weekend in an active way and enjoy the outdoors in lovely surroundings with a fun, international and multilingual group of people, you are welcome to join us!
Every Saturday at 9:30 am, we meet, we run, in the magnificent SchĂśnbrunn park, and then we go for breakfast.
Want to discuss politics or the best recipes for banana pancakes? Not a problem. Not feeling social? Tune out with your earbuds - we can talk over breakfast. We are casual. You can be too.
What to expect: Start by meeting Adrian, Ali, Liz, Paul and Sonia on-time at 9:30am outside the SchĂśnbrunn U-Bahn stop (exit GrĂźnbergstraĂe). (Coordinates: 48.1858130, 16.3200640) From there, we walk to the side park entrance where the ârunningâ part begins. The important thing is that you run at your own pace. Typically, small groups of people will run at the same pace as you, so you never have to walk/run alone :)
We finish one hour later, at about 10:40am, reconvening just inside the Hietzinger Tor exit. (Coordinates: 48.1858825, 16.3032647). From there, weâre off to breakfast!
Breakfast Details: Anker bakery opposite the U4 Hietzing station and depending on the weather, grab something for a picnic in SchĂśnbrunn park, or hang out in the bakery. If you missed us earlier, you can always go there around 10:45.
We are a fun group of runners who donât take things too seriously. We meet, chat, RUN, stretch, chat, EAT and we hang out over a beer every now and then. It's that easy. Please join us for breakfast after the run! The more the merrier.
Typically we are 10-30 people, as not everyone who comes signs up on meetup.
Important disclaimer: Please only run as much as you feel you can, considering the temperature, weather conditions, your own fitness etc... run and walk at your own pace as the organizers do not assume any liability for any injuries or health issues. Sonia, Adrian, Ali, Paul and Liz

Drunken Philosophy: Where Is Everybody? The Fermi Paradox and the Great Filter
Welcome to Drunken Philosophy, a casual, curious, social discussion club. Come grab a drink and a seat at The Oracle.
**Optional topic for this meetup: Where is everybody?**
In 1950 the physicist Enrico Fermi was talking about aliens over lunch and asked a question that still has not gone away: if the universe is so vast and so old, and even a fraction of those billions of stars have planets, where is everyone? By the numbers the galaxy should be crowded with civilizations. Instead we look up and hear silence. That gap between "they should be everywhere" and "we see no one" is the Fermi Paradox.
One of the most unsettling answers is the idea of a **Great Filter**: somewhere on the road from dead chemistry to a galaxy-spanning civilization, there is at least one step that is almost impossible to get past. Maybe the filter is behind us. Maybe life starting at all, or simple cells becoming complex, or intelligence ever evolving, is the freak accident, and we already cleared the hard part. Or maybe the filter is ahead of us, and advanced civilizations reliably wipe themselves out before they spread.
Here is the part that messes with people. If we ever found life somewhere else, even pond scum on Mars, most people would call it the greatest discovery in history. But it might be the worst possible news. It would mean life is common, the early steps are easy, and the hard step is still in front of us. So the eerie silence overhead might actually be the best sign we could ask for.
**Questions to wrestle with:**
* Is it better to be alone? Would you rather we find alien life and learn we are not special, or find nothing and quietly improve our odds of surviving?
* Where do you bet the filter sits, behind us or ahead of us, and why?
* If it is ahead of us, what is it? Nuclear war, climate collapse, AI, something we cannot even picture yet? And can we do anything about a filter we cannot see coming?
* Two principles pull opposite ways here. The principle of mediocrity (the Copernican principle, Sagan's "no privileged place in the universe") says we are ordinary, so what happened on Earth probably happened everywhere, which makes the silence scream louder. The anthropic principle says of course we find ourselves somewhere life was possible, since we could not observe anything else, so our being here may say almost nothing about how common life is. Which lens do you trust, and does the silence still demand an answer once you account for observer selection?
* And if we did confirm life out there and had to accept we are not special, what would that do to belief in a higher power, and would shedding (or keeping) that belief help or hurt our odds of pulling together as one species?
* Does any of this change how you live, or how humanity should be spending its time and money right now?
As always the prompt is optional. Come for the conversation, stay for the drinks, and bring your own questions.
