Bring a mask. Bring your vibe. Bring your curiosity.
This isn’t just another Saturday. It’s a themed social experience designed to spark connection fast.
🔥 What Makes This Night Different?
🎭 Mask Required
Mystery creates momentum. Everyone arrives behind a mask — and the conversations hit differently. It’s playful. It’s unexpected. It breaks the ice instantly.
🍻 Beer Pong Is On
We’re adding structured fun into the mix.
Teams form naturally. Strangers become teammates. Laughter becomes inevitable.
💬 Real Social Energy
We start together around the big tables.
No awkward entrances. No standing alone.
From there: • Conversations rotate naturally
• Groups expand
• Connections build
• The energy escalates
You move when you want.
You join when you want.
You stay as long as it feels right.
Nothing forced. Everything fluid.
🤝 You’re Covered From The Moment You Walk In
I’ll be there hosting, introducing, connecting people, managing the flow.
If you arrive solo, you won’t stay solo — unless that’s your strategy.
We bring together multiple social circles and platforms.
Different backgrounds. Same open mindset.
Every week grows.
This one levels up.
🎶 Atmosphere
• Social-first energy
• Music that supports connection, then lifts the room

The Three Caves Hike
Hallo Makers! 👋🏻
🗓️ Την Κυριακή 22 Φεβρουαρίου και ώρα 15:00 πεζοπρούμε νότιο Υμηττό και με αφετηρία την Βούλα!
✍️ Όπως μπορείτε να δείτε και από τον τίτλο θα συναντήσουμε τρία βασικά σημεία ενδιαφέροντος...
⛰️Τρία σπήλαια!
Που το καθένα έχει την δική του ενέργεια αλλά και την δική του ιστορία! Κάποιες εκ των οποίων λογίζονται από εντυπωσιακές έως τραγικές και μυστηριώδεις!
🗺️ Πρόκειται για μία κυκλική διαδρομή 9 χιλιομέτρων και διάρκειας δυόμιση ωρών, απόλυτα βατή και χαμηλής εντάσεως. Κατάλληλη και για αρχάριους με καλή φυσική κατάσταση.
Το 95% της διαδρομής είναι σε αγροτικούς χωματόδρομους.
🔍 Το scouting της διαδρομής έγινε Τετάρτη 4 Φεβρουαρίου!
**Γενικές οδηγίες**:
1. 750ml νερό στο σακίδιο
2. Αθλητικά υποδήματα
3. Κατοικίδια δεν επιτρέπονται
Σε περίπτωση δυσμενών καιρικών συνθηκών η δραστηριότητα θα ακυρωθεί ή αναβληθεί.
Αίτημα συμμετοχής μπορείς να κάνεις μόνο [πατώντας εδώ!](https://luma.com/1bc5hkv5)
📌To ακριβές στίγμα συνάντηση και εκκίνησης θα το δείτε μετά το αίτημα συμμετοχής!

The previous two brunches were exceptional.
Strong attendance.
Effortless interaction.
High-quality people in one room.
We are continuing with the same standard.

€12 — Any brunch dish + one glass of tea or coffee.
Available exclusively for confirmed members of our community.

Shut Up & Write!® [PIRAEUS / Athens]
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
11:00 - quick intros.
11:15 - timer starts: write for 1 hour.
12:15 - (the end) chat / take off / keep writing / socialising.
Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at To Theatron!
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write! Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons. Ideally come with your laptop fully charged in case there are not enough plugs for everyone.
Other Important Details:
-Theatron is close to the newly-opened metro station Dimotiko Theatro. The tram also stops right outside, and there are several bus stops nearby.
-There is a parking service nearby on Kountouriotou 137 if you are unable to find a parking space.
-Please thank our hosts by purchasing something.

[https://groupvibe.com/](https://groupvibe.com/)
**Join the Athens Brunch Club and make new friends!**
Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over brunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit.
👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:**

We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan.
**Why this works:**
\* Smaller groups make real conversations easier.
\* Discover new brunch spots in your city, together.
\* Curated brunch venues with good food and vibe.
\* If you hit it off with your brunch group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards.

RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on Meetup.com is only a placeholder.
This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.
One-shot: Cairn
SOMETHING IS WEIRD ABOUT THIS PARTY IN 16TH CENTURY SCOTLAND. A famous thief stole a magical jewel and hid inside a castle where a party is taking place. Enter the party, find the jewel, escape with your life.
This is a one-shot adventure for the fantasy RPG Cairn. The game will be in **english** (unless everyone can and wants to play in greek), so it is assumed that players are comfortable with the language. Location will be close to Metro station Panormou, and will be shared with confirmed participants a few days before the game.
Beginners are always welcome. We foster creativity and inclusivity. Come join us!

Free In-Person Events: How to Let Go of the Past and Move Forward
The emotional pain from past bad experiences easily lingers in the present, making it hard to enjoy life and create your future. Even when you think you've moved on, the negative emotions can be triggered, sending you back into the pain of that experience.
And we are talking about pain; emotions such as grief, depression, anxiety, fear (or terror), boiling anger, simmering resentment, feelings of shame, blaming and regret can leave you incapacitated to a greater or lesser degree.
In this local event we will be discussing the reasons why these past bad experiences have the power to affect you long after they occurred. We'll go over why the emotional pain can be so strong. We'll also discuss some simple solutions to overcome your emotional pain and be free to fully enjoy your life again.
Examples of painful experiences include:
* A broken relationship or divorce.
* Death or loss of a loved one.
* Death of a pet.
* A sudden shock or bad news.
* A betrayal.
* Being part of an abusive relationship.
* A bad injustice.
* Loss of a job, position or business.
* A grave illness or injury.
The negative emotions from these experiences don't just go away on their own. But the good news is there is a way to clear them out of your way.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is sponsored the Dianetics & Scientology Self-Improvement Center.
Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.
