We know that meeting new people in Vienna’s Meetup scene can feel a bit repetitive. While different hosts and formats exist, you often end up seeing the same faces. That’s why we’re shaking things up! We’ve teamed up with The Golden Harp 1090 and Luki’s Pub Quiz to bring you an exciting new Board Game Night - one that goes beyond Meetup and expands your social circle even further! 📅 Every Sunday, 4-9PM but you can stay and play until the restaurant closes. 📍 The Golden Harp Alsergrund (Alserbachstraße 37, 1090 Wien). Join us for an evening of fun, laughter, and great company. Whether you’re a board game enthusiast or just looking to meet new people in a relaxed setting, this is the perfect event for you! Plus, you can order delicious food and drinks right at the venue while you play. Come for the games, stay for the connections, and make Vienna feel even more like home. See you there! Please note that this free event is made possible through the generous support of the restaurant. In order to maintain a strong partnership and continue offering events like this at no cost, we kindly ask that all attendees support the venue by placing an order during their visit. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Thank you for visiting this event page! * Are you an advanced badminton player? If yes - WELCOME! * The earlier you sign up, the bigger your chance to reserve a place - once 9 other players have signed up already, you move to the waiting list. * Once the waiting list has 3 or more members, I will try to book an additional court, but no guarantees. I need to close the registration 24h before the event as I will then have to decide whether to cancel any court due to a shortage of players. You can still contact me if you want to play though. The fee per player will be €10.00 for 2 hours as the cost of both shuttles and court bookings have increased. But this should now cover also shuttles used during play. Please be on time as a curtesy to the other players. In addition, if you are on the players' list and don't come (i.e. no show), you will be automatically excluded from this group.

**No pressure, no plan—just new friends** ✨ Whether you’re visiting Vienna for the first time, recently relocated, or simply love connecting with curious people, this weekly meetup is the perfect way to share stories, make friends, and go explore, as a group, the magic that Vienna has to offer 🇦🇹 **What to expect?** • **Casual & hostless**: no formal host, no schedule: just show up, be yourself, meet fellow solo travellers & expats and decide as a group where you feel like going • **Central meeting point**: it is surrounded by cultural landmarks, cafes, and restaurants, making it a convenient and safe starting point. • **Open to everyone**: whether you are a local, an expat or just passing through for a few days, you are welcome to join. (English is the primary language, but feel free to switch of course) **How to talk with strangers?** (and create meaningful connections) To help you get started, I curated a little game of **[ridiculously good questions](https://www.pierrebonvalot.com/theblog?p=285a9711d7df80d5ac25dd4ef8fe5394&pm=c)** you can ask to break the ice, shift the conversation from dull to intriguing and fun, and eventually create meaningful connection quickly. I hope this helps! **The only things you need to do are…** • Leave a message in the comment section to let the others know that you will actually be there (I don’t want you to end up alone there :) • If you can’t make it anymore, no problem! But please update your RSVP to let the others know • Please be gentle and patient with each other. We all want to make good friends here. **Why join?** • Meet open-minded travellers and locals who are keen to connect, learn and have fun together. • Experience Vienna... as a group. • Be part of a global community that celebrates solo travelling and meaningful connections between foreign and locals. **How does it works?** 1\. Arrive at the meeting spot at the scheduled time\. 2\. Look for other joiners—friendly faces and curious explorers\. 3\. Introduce yourself\, connect with others\, and decide as a group where to go\. **When & where?** • Day: every Sunday • Time: 4:00 PM (meetup sometimes displays a different time zone: but it’s always 4pm local time) • Location: in front of the Mozart Monument inside the Burggarten **Hostless**: I am setting up the event for you all to meet, but I won't be there myself this time :) **Hi my names is Pierre** I created this Meetup group because I want to see more human connection happen in the real world. I feel many of us want this, but don't exactly know how to go about it. I hope this helps a little bit. I also work as a transformational coach: I help people who feel stuck in their life to reconnect with themselves, create real change and ultimately live more fulfilling lives. 🔗 bento.me/pierrebonvalot

What an experience. After a 10-minute train ride just outside Vienna proper, we'll hit the fields and seek out a small creek heading East, passing two villages and one lovely town famous for its brewery. Low-flying planes hint at the proximity of an airport. Slowly turning into a river, the creek yet leads us in a different direction through thick forests and water preservation areas. To secure your spots, please ... Step 1: RSVP here on Meetup first (optional but recommended) Step 2: Complete your booking at https://vienna.ixpat.com/moonriver

**Note:** We are meeting outside again as the first one was very successful. There is also a picnic in the nearby location so we may try to learn languages while having fun and learning sports vocabulary. Bring a blanket to sit on and water and snacks if you like. This is a **free** event. Are you ready to practise your language skills? If you want to meet new friends (or the same friends you met at our other events) and practice all the languages you can speak, join us for a fun-filled evening! During this event, you have the chance to choose a Group and talk to people in: 1. **English** 2. **German** 3. **Italian** 4. **Spanish** 5. **French** Our most important rule: Please be respectful to others at all times. Yes, there will be a separate beginners' Group if you aren't fluent in the language yet! It is also a great place to find Tandem Partners for the languages you want to improve in! Get in touch with the Host upon your arrival and he/she will assist you. 🟢📱 here is our WhatsApp link https://chat.whatsapp.com/KtZ1TQB7lnUAJXK5NxwPQU Hope to see you there!!!

On **Sunday, 21.12.2025**, I am planing a hike in the Lainzer Tiergarten. We meet at the U4 station Hütteldorf, walk through the Nicolaitor and hike to the Hubertuswarte (a lookout tower) on the Kaltbründelberg (508m). We continue to the main entrance, the Lainzer Tor and on another path back via the Nicolaitor to the U4 station Hütteldorf. At Lainzertor there is the possibility to take bus 56B, e.g. to U4 Wien Hietzing. So if you want, you can end the hike at the Lainzer Tor. So there are two hiking options of different lengths: **1\. U4 station Hütteldorf to Lainzer Tor:** Length of the tour: approx. 12km Duration: approx. 3.5h Altitude difference: approx. 300m up and 250m down **2\. U4 station Hütteldorf\, Lainzer Tor to U4 station Hütteldorf \(circular hike\):** Length of the tour: approx. 18km Duration: approx. 5.5h Altitude difference: approx. 500m up and 500m down We **meet at 9 a.m**. outside (and south) of the **U4 station Hütteldorf at the lift at the pedestrian bridge over the Vienna River** (see the photo below). Everyone has to bring their own food and drink (at least 1 liter), as we will not stop for a bite to eat. We take two to three breaks to rest and eat as needed. My hikes and mountain hikes are free of charge and purely private joint leisure events. I am not a certified hiking or mountain guide. Participation is at your own responsibility and risk.
