Festival & Gig Friends

**Berlin can be a tough nut to crack.** Sometimes you have your "one person" and you’re stuck in a bubble; other times, you’re the new kid on the block looking for your crew. This night is designed to break those bubbles and bridge the gap. "Bringing a friend? **Amazing.** Coming solo? **Also great.** \> Whether you’re rolling with your crew or flying solo\, you’re in the right place\. Our mission is to help you meet like-minded people and turn 'strangers' into 'Berlin besties.' **Friendly reminder**. Change ur attendance status if you cannot attend!

Der Sprachklub bietet einen Raum, um Russisch in entspannter und freundlicher Atmosphäre zu sprechen. Die Treffen ermöglichen nicht nur, vorhandene Kenntnisse zu festigen, sondern auch den Wortschatz durch lebendige Gespräche und spannende Themen zu erweitern. Hier hat jeder die Möglichkeit, neue interessante Menschen kennenzulernen, eigene Erfahrungen zu teilen, und mehr über die russische Kultur zu erfahren. Das kommende Treffen des Sprachklubs widmet sich einem wichtigen Thema – der Arbeit, die einen großen Teil unseres Lebens ausmacht. Die Teilnehmenden werden verschiedene Aspekte diskutieren: die Berufswahl, die Balance zwischen Beruf und Privatleben sowie Chancen der beruflichen Weiterentwicklung in unterschiedlichen Bereichen. Es erwarten die Teilnehmenden spannende Gespräche: sowohl über den Traumjob als auch über die Herausforderungen des Arbeitsalltags. Außerdem machen die Teilnehmenden sich mit den Bezeichnungen verschiedener Berufe vertraut und üben die Anwendung der Feminitiven – dabei können mitunter überraschende Ergebnisse entstehen.

In the spirit of a 19th-century salon, this gathering will be a space for lively conversations, fascinating encounters, and the exchange of ideas over drinks. Whether you’re new in town or a local looking to expand your social circle, this is the perfect opportunity to connect with like-minded explorers of Berlin’s nightlife. Each week, we shine a spotlight on a special guest from our community — someone who brings along a topic they’re passionate about or deeply engaged with. It’s not a presentation or a performance, but rather a gentle invitation into conversation: a starting point for curiosity, questions, and unexpected connections. The topic can naturally weave its way into the evening, without needing to take over. If you’d like to be our next special guest, feel free to reach out via the contact form: [https://socialbutterfly.berlin/contact/](https://socialbutterfly.berlin/contact/) This time, **Alladin** invites us to explore the topic “When the Body Remembers: Finding Calm After Stress, Noise, and Change.” After moving through different cities, life transitions, pressure, and moments of inner tension, he became curious about how stress can live not only in thoughts, but also in the body — in sleep, muscles, breathing, dreams, reactions, and daily energy. Through practices like meditation, breathing, music, movement, and self-observation, he has been learning how the body slowly finds safety again. Have you ever noticed your body reacting to old stress before your mind understands why? What helps you return to calm? Orga The location is cash only. It is non-smoking (with a separate room for smoking). We’ll be sitting on the couches in the first room. Questions?

Give it a try!” - Brenda 🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again. But that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara [Check out our 130+ Google reviews here](https://www.google.com/maps/place/EPIC+LLAMA/@29.4255256,-41.3746386,3z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xf758abc88e22289c!8m2!3d29.4255256!4d-41.3746386?sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiAydX55IP9AhWWQjABHejpCCkQ_BJ6BAhWEAg&coh=164777&entry=tt&shorturl=1)[ ](https://goo.gl/maps/TpZy77bfPFkGoikn7)💛 *(these are real humans, we promise!)* **🤓 FAQ** **• What's the age range?** Most people who come to our events are between 24 and 40 years old.

**Online-Nähabend auf Discord – gemeinsam nähen, austauschen und helfen** Hast du Lust auf einen entspannten Online-Nähabend – ganz ohne Kursdruck? Wir treffen uns auf Discord, um gemeinsam zu nähen, zu plaudern und uns gegenseitig zu helfen. Egal ob Anfängerin, Anfänger oder schon fortgeschritten: Alle sind willkommen. Bring einfach dein aktuelles Projekt mit, stelle Fragen oder teile deine Tipps mit der Runde. **Deinen Arbeitsplatz zeigen – optional** Wenn du möchtest, kannst du deinen Arbeitsplatz live zeigen, zum Beispiel über: * Kamera auf Discord (Webcam oder Handy) * Bildschirmfreigabe für Schnittmuster oder Anleitungen am PC * Handy als Kamera von oben auf deinen Tisch **Ablauf des Abends** Ganz locker und ohne festes Ende: * **20:00 Uhr** – Ankommen und kurzer Technik-Check (Ton, Bild, Bildschirmfreigabe) * Kurze Vorstellungsrunde: Woran arbeitest du gerade? Wo brauchst du vielleicht Hilfe? * Danach freies Nähen, Austausch und Fragen zwischendurch * Offenes Ende – wenn du müde wirst, kannst du einfach gehen **Wichtig** Wir starten pünktlich um **20:00 Uhr**. Wer später dazukommt, ist natürlich trotzdem willkommen. Nach dem Start läuft der Abend aber eher frei, deshalb können wir Spätankommende nicht mehr so gut in einen festen Ablauf einbinden. **Technik-Hinweise** * Wir treffen uns in einem Discord-Sprachkanal, auf Wunsch auch mit Video * Wenn du deinen Arbeitsplatz zeigen möchtest, funktioniert die Kombination aus Handy und Laptop meist am besten * Bitte schalte eines der Mikrofone stumm, damit es kein Echo gibt * Kopfhörer sind empfehlenswert * Bildschirmfreigabe klappt meistens am besten in der Discord-Desktop-App, im Browser kann es Einschränkungen geben. **Zeit** **Donnerstag, 20:00 Uhr** **Discord-Zugang** Den Discord-Link bzw. die Kanalinfos poste ich kurz vor Beginn direkt im Event. Er ist für angemeldete Teilnehmende sichtbar.

**Everyone's welcome ❤️** Every Friday evening we meet up by the Spree — music playing, people arriving from all over the world, and a night that usually goes way longer than anyone planned. No agenda. No organised icebreakers. Just a relaxed spot by the river where you can show up, grab a drink, and actually meet people worth knowing. We've been doing this for over 8 years, and the best thing about it is still the same — you never quite know who you're going to end up talking to. Come solo, come with friends, come fresh off a flight. The crowd is always a mix of Berliners, expats, travellers, and people who just moved here and are figuring it out. After a while the group usually spreads out to bars or clubs — or just stays by the water. You go wherever the night takes you. **Stay in the loop — join our Telegram group:** Spree Ravers → https://linktr.ee/clockworkbanana 📍 By the Spree, next to Schlesisches Tor U-Bahn — opposite the East Side Gallery, right by the Cage on Water → [https://maps.app.goo.gl/vj1DhSP3apijCmRbA](https://maps.app.goo.gl/vj1DhSP3apijCmRbA) 🕒 From 9 PM — people arrive gradually, so if it's quiet at first, just hang tight See you Friday ✨
