Question 1

Can I just buy a one-time ticket?

Accepted Answer

Question 2

Why aren’t you listing the venue details?

Accepted Answer

We don’t share the venue publicly because we want to keep the meetups intentional and safe for everyone.

Once you RSVP, we’ll know who’s coming and can balance the group to connect you with the right people. This helps us avoid random drop-ins and keeps the vibe open and friendly.

Question 3

Can I have a free trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes! On our website you can sign up for a free trial and attend this meetup for free. Here's the link: https://nextlocals.com

Question 4

Are drinks included in the price?

Accepted Answer

Consumption is paid separately at the venue. But don’t worry, we partner with our favourite places. You get the full experience without breaking the bank. Think trendy spots locals love, not overpriced tourist traps.

Question 5

What language are the meetups in?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the group. But most meetups are in English, since it’s the most universal language among internationals. You don’t need to be perfect, just open-minded. What matters most is showing up as yourself.

Question 6

Is this a business networking event?

Accepted Answer

Nope. No suits. No sales pitches. Just a relaxed atmosphere, drinks, and real talk with people who’ve moved abroad and want more out of life. Business will naturally come up because it’s a big part of your life, and part of who you are. It’s just not the focus of this meetup :)

Question 7

Why is there a membership fee?

Accepted Answer

Because this isn’t random or rushed. Your membership covers the hosting, the matching, the planning, and the experience.

It’s the difference between another awkward night and a real connection. First meetup is free during your free trial so you can see for yourself.

Question 8

What if I don’t fit in?

Accepted Answer

You’re not alone, everyone feels that way at first. But that’s exactly why we exist.

The group are balanced, the vibe is relaxed, and people come open-minded. You’ll be surprised how fast it clicks.

Question 11

Can I bring a friend?

Accepted Answer

We love that but each person needs their own membership. It keeps the experience intentional and personal.
