About us
Meet New People in Zurich. Build Real Friendships.
Making friends in a new city—or simply expanding your social circle—isn't always easy.
That's why we created Zurich Expats & International Singles, a welcoming community where internationally minded people meet through relaxed, professionally hosted social events.
Whether you're new to Zurich or have lived here for years, our events make meeting people easy and enjoyable.
Most of our guests come on their own, so you'll never feel out of place. Our friendly hosts welcome you, introduce you to others and help conversations flow naturally from the moment you arrive.
Whether you're looking to make new friends, expand your social circle or perhaps meet someone special, you'll find a warm and welcoming community here.
Fast Friends has been bringing people together for over 10 years in more than 30 cities worldwide.
Come solo. Leave with new friends.
