What's on in Edinburgh

3 socials coming up in Edinburgh

Coming along for the first time?

Most people come on their own, so you won't be the only new face. Here's how it goes.

  1. Book your place

    Pick a social and book in a minute, no account needed. Coming with friends? Book their places at the same time.

  2. We'll email you the details

    Where to go, when to arrive and anything to bring.

  3. Say hello and join in

    Get stuck in and stay as long as you like.

Questions people ask

Can I come on my own?

Yes, most people do. We'll say hello at the door, and there's always something to do together, which gives you something to chat about.

Can I bring friends?

Yes. When you book, choose how many places you need: one for you and one for each friend. Add their emails if they'd like the reminders too.

What if I can't make it?

Places aren't refundable, but you can send a friend instead: use the link in your booking email to give us their name and email. Or cancel there, so someone on the waiting list can have your place. If we cancel the social, or move it to a date that doesn't suit you, you'll get your money back.

Who comes to socials?

Mostly people in their 20s and 30s, and lots of them are new to their city. You need to be 18 or over.

Do I need to be a member?

No, anyone can book. Members pay the member price and get to book first when socials are popular.
