This "Lisbon Newcomers Welcome Club" gathering is for people who are new to Lisbon or want to welcome them, and increase their number of connections. The first meetup was held November 2021 and since we have welcomed 300+ people to these events. Each event creates new bonds between virgins (newcomers to Lisbon) and veterans (locals or those who have been here for a while) in a simple, fun, yet effective way.

Our events are open and welcoming to people from all backgrounds. You will be surprised to see how many different nationalities come together at these events.

EVENT STRUCTURE:

We will have a structured first sixty minutes with icebreakers aimed at making things easy for people to connect with one another. Then participants are welcome to hang out and socialise as they wish after the structured part of the meeting is over.

REACH OUT:

If you have a community initiative you want to share or announce, let us know in advance.

VOLUNTEERS:

We need volunteers to help us develop the project. From Simple things like being early to welcome people, through to PR and graphic design and a website.

Let us know if that sounds like you and apply to join the team here

We aim to be a local community of internationally minded people in the heart of Lisbon. You are welcome to be a part of it.

The idea is to maintain and sustain the community spirit that sometimes emerged during Covid and help build back better and stronger than before.
