How to meet people after moving to Warsaw

After a move, weekdays fill up with work and paperwork, and weekends often stay empty. The easiest start is small meetups where people come to meet: coffee, a walk, board games or dinner. Below are the upcoming ones in Warsaw.

All meetups in Warsaw

Start simple

Coffee or a walk for a couple of hours is a good first step: short, cheap and in a public place. One or two meetups a week and you already see familiar faces.

Meetups in your language and in Polish

It is easier in your own language at first: Mates has meetups in English, Russian and Ukrainian. Once you settle in, try meetups in Polish: good practice and new friends among locals.

Stay in touch

People from shared meetups stay in “My people”. Add them as friends, message them and invite them to the next meetup.

Questions
