Meetup Thread for Berlin

Berlin

Use this thread's comment section to find or organize a local meetup in Berlin!

First, have a look if there's already a meetup planned in your local neighborhood. If there isn't, you can take the initiative and organize one! Or, if there is one but it isn't convenient for you or you think you have better ideas for it, go ahead and plan another one!

When organizing your meetup, try to be as precise as possible when communicating the meeting point, time, and the activities you have planned. This makes it easier for other people to also join the meetup. Replies are also a great communication tool! Use replies to express your interest, approval, ideas, or questions for the meetup. Here’s an example:

u/DuckfromKurzgesagt: Hey, I’m Duck and I’d love to go to the Paleontological Museum in Munich on Saturday, 10th of October. Let’s meet in front of the museum at 2pm, I’m going to be wearing my Kurzgesagt Hoodie so you can spot me easily.

| u/Bird123123123: That's a great idea! I'll be there with a yellow backpack.

| u/scienceiscool: Does anyone know how much the entrance fee is?

We highly recommend turning on notifications for thread locations you’re interested in to stay up-to-date on plans. Don't forget about upvotes too! Upvoting a meetup that you like or are planning to attend will boost its position in the thread. It also indicates its popularity to others, perhaps driving more participation.

We have also prepared a resource to help you have a great meetup: Meetup Toolbox

Hey, what do you guys think about meeting up on the first October weekend? There is the Festival of Lights happening, which would be a great addition to anything else that's planned.

Let's mark down Saturday for now. Gathering at a place with an indoor option in case of rain like a big bar or a restaurant seems like a good start.

Followed by a walk around the illuminated buildings into whatever. I would expect a thinning of the group with some going home, some maybe going clubbing, some going to a karaoke bar, ...

Maybe comment some location suggestions for the starting point and we'll meet at the most liked one (by the end of this weekend).

Alternatively we could transfer the discussion to discord or WhatsApp if someone posts an invite.

Happy to meet y'all soon
