📌 **What** Feeling a little *youngish and lostish*? Same. Join this aperitivo where you can meet other 20- and 30-somethings who are also navigating the “What am I doing with my life?” era — but in good company. ***How it works***: you show up, grab a drink, and mingle with people who are just as lost as you are. ❗️**The Meetup team won’t be there**, you need to connect with other participants in the Whatsapp chat to form a group! More info below. 📌 **Who** Lost souls in their 20s/30s—Milanese, *fuorisede* or expats, all are welcome! 📌 **How** 1. **RSVP to join**. 2. **Join the** **[Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/FsAGckbAhzo6WboaZkrusJ)** — the group helps handle logistics and connect with other participants before the event. 3.

📌 **What** Goditi Isola come un vero local! 🍹✨ Unisciti a noi per un venerdì sera "alla milanese": zero stress, niente tavoli assegnati, solo buona compagnia e vibes da piazzetta. ***Come funziona:*** ci troviamo inizialmente al **Lucky Bar** per rompere il ghiaccio con il primo drink. Una volta formato il gruppo, ci spostiamo tutti insieme (sono 150 metri a piedi!) verso **Piazzale Archinto** per continuare la serata nel cuore della movida, tra chiacchiere in piedi e refill tattici al Vinyl o negli altri bar della piazza. ❗️Il team di Meetup non sarà presente. Comunicate con gli altri partecipanti sulla chat WhatsApp per fare gruppo! Maggiori info qui sotto. 📌 **Who** Giovani (20-30enni), milanesi e fuorisede che hanno voglia di conoscere gente nuova in modo easy.

Entra nel **[gruppo WhatsApp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/CwJKPZI3G0vKqLZRdRtzLr)** — fondamentale per coordinarsi ("Siamo al Lucky", "Ci stiamo spostando in piazza"). 3\. \(Per favore per favore per favore\) **tieni aggiornato il tuo RSVP su Meetup** 🫶

**📌 What** Kick off your weekend with the undisputed king of party games. Whether you're a sniper with the ping pong ball or you just enjoy the "beer" part of the game, this is the place to be. It's loud, it's fun, and it's the easiest way to make new friends in Milan. ***How it works:*** Meet at **20:30** at the **Meetup reserved table** to grab a drink, mingle, and form teams. The games start officially at **21:00**. Look for the group near the tables (or follow the sound of bouncing balls). ❗️The Meetup team won’t be there, you need to connect with other participants in the Whatsapp chat to form a group! More info below. **📌 Who** Expats, students, locals, and anyone with decent hand-eye coordination (or willingness to learn). **📌 How** * RSVP to join. * Join the **[WhatsApp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/IXfhcrsOrUCDyHs6CPtL83)** — [Critical to find the group and form teams]. * (Please please please) keep your RSVP on Meetup updated 🫶

The holidays are just around the corner, and before everyone heads into festive plans, we’re gathering once more around the table.

Whether you are a regular or joining for the first time, you are very welcome. 🎯 WHAT TO EXPECT **A Huge Game Library**: Draft has something for every type of player, from fast and silly party games to longer strategy games. You can also bring your own favorites if you want to share them. **A Friendly Community**: Our group includes locals, internationals, newcomers, and regulars. Everyone is welcome, whether you come alone or with friends. **No Experience Needed**: We help form groups and explain rules, so you can jump right in even if you have never played a game before. 🗓️ KEY DETAILS 📍 **Where**: Draft Milano, Viale Misurata 9, 20146 Milano MI 🗓 **When**: Friday, 19 December 2025 ⏰ **Time**: 7:00 PM to 11:00 PM 💰 **Cost**: Free to attend.

📌 **What** Impossible to agree on a restaurant? One friend wants pizza, the other wants sushi? That's precisely why the group is heading to Mercato Centrale! ***How it works***: The concept is perfect for a Saturday gathering: 1. You meet at the entrance. 2. You find a table together inside the food hall. 3. You grab whatever food you like from the different stands (Roman pizza, dumplings, burgers, etc.). 4. You eat & chat without the stress of splitting the bill. It’s loud, casual, and the best way to have lunch with new people without the formality of a sit-down restaurant. ❗️The Meetup team won’t be there, you need to connect with other participants in the Whatsapp chat to form a group! More info below. 📌 **Who** **Foodies, Expats, and Locals**. Anyone looking to make their Saturday lunch social and diverse! (Target: 25-35 yo).
