ENGLISH! WEDNESDAY / The Central House - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21h
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup!
Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue?
If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you.
• WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT?
At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method:
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method)
We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts.
The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives.
Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
• WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP?
Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups:
* What ideals are worth dying for?
* Why are we never satisfied?
* Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is?
* Is identity necessary?
* How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others)
* What is friendship?
• WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP?
Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory.
Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue.
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

## Full description
Barcelona is a city full of secrets, hidden doors, unmarked alleys, and stories that only locals know. Behind some of these doors lie speakeasies and creative cocktail bars that blend history, culture, and innovation. On this exclusive evening experience, you’ll step into the world of Barcelona’s hidden nightlife, guided by a local insider who knows exactly where to look.
This is not your typical bar crawl. Instead, it’s a carefully curated journey into the city’s most unique speakeasies and stylish hidden bars. Each stop has a story to tell—whether it’s a bar tucked behind an unmarked entrance, a venue styled after the prohibition era, or a creative lounge where mixology is treated like art.
You’ll enjoy a selection of delicious optional (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks) tapas, pairing Barcelona’s culinary traditions with its vibrant drinking culture. From classic Catalan bites to modern twists, these small plates are the perfect way to experience local flavors.
Your guide will reveal the fascinating history of speakeasies, the influence of prohibition culture, and the way Barcelona has reimagined it with its own creative flair. You’ll learn how these secret spots became part of the city’s nightlife identity and why locals love them.
By the end of the evening, you won’t just have visited hidden bars—you’ll have experienced a side of Barcelona that few travelers ever see. This is a night of discovery, taste, and connection, ideal for curious travelers, foodies (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks), and anyone seeking something beyond the ordinary.
## Includes
Optional (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks) charcuterie board of tapas at the first bar and drinks available on a pay-as-you-go basis (Spanish beer, wine, sangria or vermouth).
The tour is pay as you go as you discover more surprises and hidden gems!

* Children under 18 years
* People over 70 years
## Meeting point
Milan’s Cocktail (Carrer de Milans, 7 08002, Barcelona, Spain)

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
