Our Birthday Introductions Event

Details

If you find it hard to approach several new people at a meetup, our mingling event for Londoners age 50+ is for you. And at this event we’re toasting our birthday!

***Our venue is a stunning historical pub a few minutes’ walk from Bank Station.***

No tickets on the door.

>>>wholondon.co.uk members receive a free drink. Everyone will share a small selection of sides/snacks or treats for FREE!<<<

Come and make new friends at our special 8th birthday event where we’ll get to know one another with all the atmosphere of a good birthday bash!

Wear something green to celebrate with us (e.g. scarf, jewellery, shirt/top) and get a discount off the following event to continue the conversations!

Our Introductions event is the hosted drinks event for making friends or finding a partner through round-robin group socialising. Pre-arranged specially chosen rotation schedules so you get to meet everyone properly. There will be a mixture of seating and areas to stand and chat, creating an informal atmosphere which fits our Club ethos just right. Almost everyone comes on his/her own and is looking to make friends or meet a partner, so you will be in good company.

You'll have a chilled time in a popular pub with unbelievably high ceilings and gleaming chandeliers. The Counting House is a jaw-dropping venue, where even the amazing photos can’t beat the wow-factor when you’re actually there in person! The Counting House's main bar is housed in a former banking hall. The beautiful Cornhill pub (and hotel) oozes 19th century decadence.

Our event hosts ensure you get to chat with lots of friendly Who Londoners, rather than get stuck with a few people. You’ll be given a name label and a piece of paper with numbers specific to you. The numbers represent table/bar areas you move to for new group chats every 20mins when we ring our bells (let us know when you book if you need to stay seated). It’s easy to follow and flows smoothly.

> Not just a drinks meetup, but an organised networking event to make new friends and connections. You’ll have the time to get to know new people with our relaxed socialising format, where we pre-assign you a new group for each of our rounds. (You won’t all be left to have to mingle among yourselves.)

> Rotation schedule arrangement specific to each event to ensure you can chat to everyone attending. There are a number of possible layout plans, but we try different scenarios before the event in order that we get everyone the best fit for this particular evening.

> You’ll know which tables/bar area you’ve been designated for each round and our table number stands are huge so you can easily see them.

> Hands-on hosting with hosts welcoming you right at the entrance, ensuring the event runs smoothly, and explaining our simple and successful method before we start. All hosts take part in the group chats too.

> Top venue with character and which is easy to get to. We’ve booked a private area for our mingling in a beautiful pub with plenty of history: The Counting House, which is a few minutes’ walk from Bank Station and is opening longer especially for us!

Let's enjoy socialising and make friends over drinks or cocktails - a comfortable event to come alone to and meet lots of new people age 50+.

Dress for a bar date; no caps/t-shirts.
