Meeting people in Lyon, answered

How do I meet people in Lyon?

Pick something that repeats every week and go twice. This week there's also Les Lundis Salsa by DJ Carlos and Crazy Blind Test Challenge.

Can I go on my own?

Yes: everything here is the kind of thing people go to alone, from trivia nights that put you on a team to walking tours where everyone's a stranger at the start. The weekly nights at hotels and hostels are open to everyone, not just their guests.

I've just moved to Lyon. Where do I start?

Choose "Staying a while" above: the weekly nights come first, because going back is how strangers become friends. New to Lyon plans your first month, one week at a time.
