LuxBuzz Integration Breakfast: Education, Languages & Integration in Luxembourg
***The LuxBuzz Integration Breakfasts are back - New 2026 Series***
**Dear community,**
We are happy to announce the return of the **LuxBuzz Integration Breakfasts** - a new series of warm, informal morning conversations designed to make life in Luxembourg easier to understand and navigate.
We begin with a topic that touches everyone who arrives in this country:
**Education, Languages and Integration in Luxembourg**
For many newcomers, building a life here means learning how the system works and especially how languages shape everyday experience.
· Which language should you focus on?
· How does the education system function?
· And how do these elements influence your integration journey?
This first Breakfast is an opportunity to explore these questions together openly and without pressure.
**Our guest speaker**
We are delighted to welcome **Lorraine Duong**, foreign language educator and audiovisual project manager at the Institut de formation de l’Éducation nationale (IFEN).
Lorraine brings a unique perspective combining:
* deep knowledge of the Luxembourg education system
* practical experience supporting language learners
* and a genuine passion for helping people integrate with confidence
**☕ What to expect**
* a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere
* practical insights you can actually use
* space to ask your own questions
* meaningful conversations with others navigating a similar journey
**📍 Event details**
**Date:** 27 March 2026
**Time:** 09:00 – 10:30
**Location:** The Office Charlotte, Luxembourg
Participation is limited to keep the discussion personal and dynamic.
This initiative is organised by **The LuxBuzz Academy ASBL** within the framework of the **Biergerpakt for Intercultural Living Together by MIFA**. We are grateful for their support in making these community moments possible.
If you are navigating life in Luxembourg or simply curious to understand it better - we would be very happy to welcome you.

Fast Friending – Fresh Connections! (21-40/Drink Offer)
Moving to a new city is exciting at first — a fresh start, new opportunities, a new chapter. But once things settle, being new in town can feel lonely. You don’t know anyone yet, you’re unsure where to go to meet people, and everyone else seems to already have their circles.
That’s where we come in. Our Fast Friending evenings are designed especially for those who are new in town and ready to build real friendships — creating welcoming spaces where conversations flow naturally and meaningful connections begin.
**You will need to buy a ticket for attending -**
[https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk]( https://lux28thmarch.eventbrite.co.uk)
\*You can use any debit or credit card to purchase your ticket at PayPal checkout. It will ask you for your email address but that is only to send you a receipt. You do not need a PayPal account.
TICKETS:-
Early Bird - €5 / person
Regular Ticket - €10 / person
Cash at meetup: If you do not purchase a ticket in advance then you can pay Silvia cash of €15 when you attend.
**Here’s how your evening will flow:-**
**7:00 PM – Welcome**
Arrive at 7:00 PM and be welcomed by your host, Silvia, who will guide the evening and help with introductions. Feeling shy? Come a little early and she’ll ease you into small-group conversations. You’re also welcome to bring a lady friend along for free.
**7:30 – 8:30 PM \| Fast Friending**
Chat with a new attendee every 3 minutes, ensuring you meet a variety of like-minded ladies and gentlemen.
**After 8:30 PM \| Open Mingling**
Reconnect with those you enjoyed speaking to and continue meaningful conversations at your own pace
\- We are not a close knit tight group\. Our evenings are warm and comfortable for members attending for the first time and those coming alone\. You will not feel alone\!
\- We have many groups in this city\. Members of our other groups who RSVP are included as guests of the organisers in order to give you an indication of expected people\.
\- This evening is for ladies and gents in the 21 to 40 age group\. While some will be at the younger end of this range there will also be others at the other end of the range and lots in\-between\! You will naturally gel with others of your own age range and so you will always find many attendees who fit your range\.
\- We are not a dating group\. Our events are not organised to manage your dating life\. Our group is created to help ladies and gents meet other like minded ladies and gents\. Please do not attend our event if a perfect gender balance is important for your enjoyment of our meet\-up\.
Why do we have tickets?
1. Cover our costs - Our host is compensated for their time and work. We also pay meetup and have dedicated staff to manage our events, hosts, venues and communication.
2. Group Safety - By securing your ticket we have a record and you contribute to a well organized evening where everyone is more committed and better behaved.

Rave New World: Confessions of a Raving Reporter + AFTER-RAVE @Rockhal
*Apologies in advance for the excessive use of the word “rave” in this event.*
Join us — with intensity and grace — for a hybrid evening that begins with reflection and ends in bass. From a Saturday night discussion about the rave scene to an actual one in the south of Luxembourg.
You’re welcome to attend either one or both:
**20:00 – 22:00 \| Book Discussion @ Creapelle**
“We were one nation united by the groove.”
In 1989, one rave changed Kirk Field’s life. It led him to become a “rave reporter” and witness the UK’s Summer of Love.
We’ll dive into his book *Rave New World: Confessions of a Rave Reporter*, though you don’t need to have read the book... curiosity is enough 😎
You can also watch the documentary beforehand [HERE](https://youtu.be/A-XrlMpwEuM)
**23:00 \| Do You Rave? @ Rockhal Club**
Luxembourg may not be Berlin. But every now and then, she hosts amazing raves and this is one of them!
Join me and Laureena — two passionate ravers — as we move from conversation to groove in *Luxembourg’s biggest hard techno rave!*
Event info & tickets [HERE](https://rockhal.lu/shows/do-you-rave-march/)
Oh! and a gently reminder of the rave essentials:
- Black clothes
- Black shades
- Gum
- Earplugs
- An open mind
- Good sleep (the real super drug😉)
