Meeting people in San Luis Obispo, answered

How do I meet people in San Luis Obispo?

Pick something that repeats every week and go twice. This week there's also Downtown SLO Farmers' Market and Tuesday Comedy Open Mic at Libertine.

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 San Luis Obispo. Where do I start?

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