Not just acquaintances

Making friends as an adult can be tricky. It's hard to move past the polite chit-chat and surface-level stuff. That's why we guide you straight to conversations that feel real and meaningful.

How it works

01 Sign up for the event

Check out our upcoming events below. When you sign up, we'll do our best to place you in a group that fits and has a balanced mix, depending on who's coming.

02 Get location details

We'll send you the location details at least one day before the event to ensure the venue has space for everyone. It'll be in central Stockholm, where it's easy for most people to get to.

03 Just show up

No pressure, no preparation. Just come ready to share and connect. We'll guide you through icebreakers and curated questions that build connection. By the end, it'll feel less like an event and more like a cozy friend gathering.
