Looking for a low-pressure way to meet people, make friends, and do something genuinely fun on a winter evening? Board Game Night at Villa Vida Café is a relaxed, welcoming group hangout where games do the ice-breaking for you. The event takes place on **Saturday, February 7th, 2025**, from **18:00–21:00** at Villa Vida Café in Vienna. Entry is **free**, and everyone is welcome. ### What kind of evening is this? This is a casual **board game evening**, not a tournament and not a competition-heavy space. You can bring your own board or card games, or choose from **Villa Vida Café’s in-house game collection**. There will be different tables playing different games throughout the evening, and you’re free to move around, join a table, or start a new game if you like. A **host will be present** to welcome people, help everyone settle in, and support the flow of the evening. If you arrive alone or feel unsure where to sit, the host can help connect you with a game or a group. If there is **no event scheduled after Game Night**, you’re welcome to **stay longer than 21:00 and keep playing**. There’s no rush — you can take your time and enjoy the evening at your own pace. ### Language & Accessibility People are welcome to speak **any language they feel comfortable with** at their table, as long as everyone agrees. Villa Vida Café is **fully wheelchair accessible**, including an accessible toilet. The space is warm, community-oriented, and designed to feel easy to enter, even if you’re coming alone. ### How to join * **Free entry** * No registration required — just show up * Come for the whole evening or just part of it Whether you’re there to play, watch, chat, or gently meet new people, Board Game Night is about shared fun and low-stakes connection.

Hello ! and welcome to our international family in Vienna! [[[Click this Whatsapp Groupchat link to join]]](https://chat.whatsapp.com/BejhsO9xEbhCEBeMwoQn2O) This isn’t just a language exchange — it’s a lively gathering of globally minded souls in their 20s and 30s who love new experiences. We meet every Saturday at 7:30 PM in the heart of the city. Whether you’re a backpacker passing through or a Viennese local curious about the world, you'll find open minds and open hearts here. Come practice new languages, share your culture, and make authentic connections.

Merging bookclub and brunch. The first book we will talk about is « the anxious generation » by J. Haidt. Please bring recommendations for the next round!

**WHERE!?** We will be in the downstairs Event Area at [Café Aera](https://aera.at/)! Tickets cost €21, and to guarantee you a seat, we recommend you book in advance at www.adrinkinggamevie.com. **WHAT??** A group of actors and a host perform a staged reading of a script in front of a live audience. When certain pre-determined phrases (buzzwords) are read out loud, a bell rings and the audience and/or actors take a sip from their drinks. Audience members are encouraged to participate, but are not required to drink alcohol. **HOW?** * No one under the age of 18 years is allowed to attend the show. * Anyone who has a beverage in hand can participate. A beverage is not required to watch the show, but it's more fun that way! * There are usually 4-5 buzzwords per show and they are articulated to the audience before the show starts. * Actors follow the same buzzwords as the audience as well as additional "actor-only" buzzwords. This is not a meetup exclusive event, so bring your friends, bring your parents, bring your co-workers, the more then merrier!
