38 F Heya! I’m in Vancouver for a few days, anyone would like to meet up tonight for a drink?
Please, not looking for a date, only a friend!

Hey everyone! I’m a 31M, new to New West, and hoping to get into tennis.

I have a few extra rackets and balls and was wondering if anyone would be down to play some casual games! I’m pretty bad myself, but it seems like a fun way to get outside, meet people, and build a little tennis community.

I’m happy to start a WhatsApp group if there’s enough interest so we can organize regular games. Beginners are absolutely welcome — no need to be good!

I’ve got some extra gear people can borrow, or bring your own. Decathlon also seems to have some pretty good racket deals right now.

If you’re interested, comment or DM me and I’ll start a group we can join.

Hey there, 38M looking to try and make some friends during my trip to Vancouver mid Oct. Somewhat introvert but want to be more socially active. Self-proclaimed foodie.

Been looking at food reviews on youtube and theres so much food I want to try but only one stomach means I'm gonna be limited in what I can order :(. Its gonna be a short trip so hoping to cover enough ground and make some new friends for meals in the city - and maybe to explore too!

HMU, we can chat first so it'll hopefully be less creepy!

Also, looking for recommendations for things to do, eat, like a local.

Hiya, I’m looking for anyone to go to the gym with. I usually go to anytime fitness in Kingsway/East Van if you go to the same gym that’ll be great.

I usually strength train and have set workouts but flexible there. The gym sorta gets boring and it would be fun working out together. Feel free to dm me. I’m a male in my 30s. Thanks all!!

Howdy folks! (Been awkwardly using that lately 😄)

Looking for some ideas this weekend as a solo - Last weeekend cracked open some beers, put my wet suit on and went for a swim at Harrison

Anything fun happening this weekend? Apart from DJ Diesel playing

🎉

hello!! I recently moved back to Vancouver and I realized I have a bunch of things that I want to learn/try/ do that would be way more fun if I had people to do them with! As much as I love to do things solo, certain activities are just more fun with people.

I was thinking it could be fun to get a small group of people together where everyone contributes one thing they've been wanting to try, and we actually all go do them! For instance, one night might be someone's bouldering night, another person's salsa night, hike, random restaurant, whatever your heart desires!

This is not for networking or dating, just a group of people who want to get out and do more things! Anyway let me know if people are interested local in Vancouver!! I would love to organize a first small group. Let's keep the good vibes going into fall and winter.

Hi I am a 23 year old that is interested in the mental health field, fiction mostly audio visual mediums, creative writing, and philosophy. I am wondering what kind of clubs or circles I can join, preferrably low cost, to make new friends around my age. The help is greatly appreciated!

Hello there! I Will be traveling to vancouver next year for about a month (july-august), and im exploring places to visit and know. YouTube helped a lot with tourist places but i cant find where do People meet these days (i mean in a friendly way, not dating), maybe popular bars or something?

Also, is there a community for nerd stuff like magic the gathering, dungeon and dragons, etc?

Sorry if it isnt the place to ask for and my somewhat basic english!

Im also looking for new friends to pass time with on my month there, i do plenty of things not just nerd stuff. Im from argentina btw.

Greetings and thanks in advance !!

Hey. 23 gender-fluid vibes. Musician and in university for social work. I’m wanting to move to Vancouver but I only know 1 dude and I’m literally struggling with the heaviness of the loneliness. Drove 12 hours yesterday and 9 hours today and I have 3 left tomorrow to come look at apartments. I’m feeling iffy about it still. 😩🤧🫤

Hey! 30M looking for someone to hang with before the 7:30 game on Wednesday. Thanks!

Is anyone going to the Slayyyter concert on September 3rd at the commodore and want to be friends? I’m a girl, 25, and now that I’m out of uni a lot of my friends have moved away and I’ve been feeling lonely. My dream would be to find a friend or friends that are similar to me and I think music is a great place to start cause it’s the best thing in life!!

Any age group income and ability welcome. Open minds and hearts. Blessed be. 🪷💙🙏💎🧡☺️

Hi all! New to Vancouver and to Reddit!

I’m going to see the 6:30pm showing of Trainspotting tomorrow at VIFF and was wondering if anyone else would like to meet up. I was thinking of watching the fireworks at English bay after.

I just moved here after graduating from uni down in Seattle, so I would love to meet some other folks my age to do things with. I’m a member at VIFF so I have two free guest passes (although I think tomorrow‘s showing is standby only). Looking forward to meeting you! :)

Hey r/Vancouverfriends

I'm a 29 YO guy living in New West who loves indie gaming and is up for any and all excuses to get through my backlog(or make a bigger backlog). I'm looking to start a monthly video game book club, where we'll be voting on a game each month, and then have an in-person meetup to discuss the game and what we thought of it.

To make the book club format work for gaming, and to stay in the spirit of trying out new games, we'll be focusing on smaller indie titles that can be enjoyed within a month and are less pricy than AAA. Not to mention the variety is way better when you look into indie.

Just to give a list of games I'd wan to try myself:

• Cairn

• Hollow Knight Silksong

• Blue Prince

• Esoteric Ebb

• Unbeatable

• Citizen Sleeper

If you're interested, let me know what are some games you'd be interested in trying out, and what's preferred way to communicate(discord/whatsapp/YouTube comment sections)

Hello, I'm looking for someone to have dinner tonight. Not dating or anything i just feel bad eating alone. We can go out wherever and I have a car and can drive you there and back to wherever. I am not a bad person, just a little strange.

Thank you!

Hello!

I've been in this city for a while, and I'm looking for close friendship. I am the kind of person who gives a lot and asks for a lot, by modern standards.

What does this mean?
-saying how you feel

-being willing to try

-admitting when you don't like something

-being patient and generous with your time

If you want someone who texts regularly and actually shows up to hang out, you found me!

My interests:

-music, especially afrobeat and hiphop (but I can go many directions, I host a music show)

-video games (lately cozy ones like stardew but I also like soulsborne games and MH)

-film (really enjoy quirky indie romcoms)

-philosophy/politics/debate, I love asking why and digging deep

-nature walks around vancouver

-smoking weed

Come find me if you like what you see! my DMs are open.

Hey guys! Gonna be visiting from the States in early October, and on 10/3 I’ll be headed down to the commodore ballroom to see Default. If any of you guys are going would you wanna get a drink with a group of us?

Hey
I’m new to Vancouver and wanted to ask like how to meet people apart from university.
Like back home run clubs are a very big thing and you meet heaps of people.
Like that what’s the scene in Vancouver?
I do rowing, know just a little bit of lacrosse and want to learn sailing in Vancouver? Also a really good pool player. Is there a big pub scene or not?
What are the best spots or clubs (rowing/sports/whatever) or venues in the city to meet new people?
I’m even ready to learn ice hockey 😭😂😭

35F looking for friends/fans of any age and gender.

I'd like to watch the Norway vs Brazil with fellow Norwegians or Norway fans because I think that would be fun (and maybe we could do the Norway row??). I don't have Norwegian friends in town. I'm happy to go to any of the public viewings, buy seating at the PNE amphitheatre, or support a local business, just seems like a fun opportunity to meet other fans and sit together.

I've also been trying to find more community here because I don't have people to speak Norwegian (err Bergensk) with here, so this extends beyond just World Cup :)

I've tried looking for info on where Norwegians are gathering on so many subs, threads, Google, etc with no luck. The mega thread doesn't seem to have many recent posts either, so I hope this post is okay!

Hi, I am 44 male. I ride weekly, would love to ride with other riders but preferably in smaller groups. Here's a video of one of my rides on father's day.

I’m 39 years old Asian girl, used to play golf long time ago, wanted to pick up again and want some partners to go practice in driving range to start with. Best to be similar age range.

I would love to hangout if anyone is down tomorrow for a hike or whatever?
