About us
Welcome to Toronto New in the City Social! đź‘‹
New to Toronto? You're not alone.
Moving to a new city is exciting, but building a new social circle can be one of the biggest challenges. Whether you've recently relocated, are starting a new job, or simply want to meet new people, our community is here to help you feel at home.
We bring together friendly people through relaxed, welcoming social events designed to make meeting others easy and enjoyable. Unlike a typical meetup where people stick to the friends they came with, our events encourage natural conversations in a warm, inclusive atmosphere. Most of our members attend solo, so you'll always receive a friendly welcome.
From our signature Fast Friends socials and pub nights to coffee meetups, conversation events, games, and seasonal experiences, every event is an opportunity to discover the city, meet like-minded people, and build genuine friendships.
Our mission is simple: to help newcomers turn Toronto into home—one conversation, one friendship, and one great experience at a time.
Come for the event. Stay for the conversations. Leave feeling like you belong.

I very much hope that you will join us and create a vibrant social community
which is close-knit and high quality.
