Details

Start your Saturday evening in one of the most beautiful traditional areas of London. We’ll begin at the iconic White Horse Richmond for a chilled warm-up at the pub followed by a walk through the village to explore more bars and cafes, and then aim for drinks by the Thames river.
Whether you’re new to the city, a student, or just need a screen break, come solo or bring a friend. No gatekeeping, just a relaxed afternoon with the World Citizens crew.

What to Expect:
The spot: Traditional pub in one of London's most traditional areas - ask for "World Citizens" when you arrive (more details in the comments on the day!)
🎨 The crowd: Early professionals, students and recent grads (20s-30s).
💬 The vibe: Low-pressure chats and good connections.
🌿 The move: After the first hour or so, we'll explore the rest of the village's beautiful pubs, cafes and maybe get riverside drinks.
