WHAT WE’RE ABOUT

Meet people.
Make things happen.

Social! is a community for meeting new people, having fun and creating memorable experiences together.

Locals, internationals, tourists and newcomers are welcome. Join events like hiking, sports, casual hangouts or anything you enjoy—or take the lead and organise your own.

The goal is simple: keep things friendly, lively and drama-free while sharing great moments with others.

GROUPS INSIDE SOCIAL! WHATSAPP

Find your corner
of the community.

WhatsApp is our main community platform. Join groups to chat, meet people, make plans and keep up with what’s happening.

Hangout & Chat

For spontaneous meetups, quick hangouts, and casual conversation. A space to suggest activities on the fly, share what you’re up for, or just chat with the group whenever you like.

Arts & Crafts

For exhibitions, workshops, painting, reading circles, open mics, and other creative activities. No experience needed — just bring your curiosity.

Marketplace

This group exists to swap items or give things away for free within the community. This includes handmade or professionally made items (e.g. jewelry, art, crafts) as well as services (e.g. repairs, lessons, creative skills). No money involved. Ever.

Food & Party

For those who enjoy trying new restaurants and cafés, attending festivals and concerts, bar nights, and casual parties.

Travel Buddy

For those who like to travel. Share trips, find travel companions, or exchange travel tips and ideas.

Workout & Sports

For running, cycling, gym sessions, yoga, team sports, and other fitness activities. A space to organize workouts, practice sports, and stay active.

Games, Quiz & Bingo

For those who enjoy board games, card games, trivia, bingo nights, and friendly competitions.

Outdoors

MEMBER-CREATED 💡

The community is
made by the people in it.

Members bring Social! to life by joining events and creating plans of their own.

Members can create and share events through the Social! website, WhatsApp, Meetup, Facebook and other community channels. When an event uses Pass reservations, your Social! Pass keeps reservations, tickets and check-in together — no matter where the event was created or shared.

The host sets the plan, rules, structure and number of attendees. Suggestions are welcome, but the final word belongs to the person putting in the time to make the event happen.

Events are organised for free. The variety comes from members sharing what they already enjoy.
