World Citizens Friday Social for new-in-town, global minds & third culture kids
Details
Meet people from around the world in a conversation-friendly space. We mix informal socializing with a few structured activities so you feel safe, relaxed and make new friends!
What is World Citizens? London's community for new-in-town, expats, travellers and third culture kids who want to meet in a safe, culturally enriching and thought-provoking space.
How to participate? You must enter our ticket lottery at https://worldcitizenfridays.eventbrite.co.uk! If you're picked, you will receive an invitation email with the secret venue address sometime on Thursday or Friday!
The secret venue address changes every week, but is usually somewhere in the City of London square mile area, between London Bridge, Tower Hill and Liverpool Street. To receive the full secret venue address you must register via Eventbrite lottery. There is no other way. If you received the full secret venue address, please do not share it with anyone!
Why the lottery and secret venue? We balance quantity and quality, newcomers and regulars, and give everyone a chance to experience safe, diverse and culturally enriching events. Expect less attendees than the number of RSVP, but more quality time connecting with people in a meaningful way!
What we expect from you:
- To be respectful and courteous with everyone.
- To be present so that others feel listened to.
- To be mindful of people’s personal space.
These events are for everyone to feel safe, welcome and comfortable; where everyone can be heard; where everyone can maintain boundaries with harmony. Thank you for your cooperation!
We put women first: Over 80% of women in the UK say that nightlife is unsafe (YouGov Oct 2021 poll) because of predator men and alcohol/substance abuse. We want to completely change that: World Citizens proactively designs event systems for everyone to enjoy a safe and pleasant evening.
JOIN OUR TEAM! We're all volunteers doing this for fun, so if you enjoy organizing activities or events in your spare time, and meeting great people every week, send a message to our team account "TP".
