About us
Exeter is a hub of great music, fantastic dancing, and memorable fun events. There's so much happening all the time, from festivals and club nights to gigs, socials and much more. This group gives you the opportunity to experience some of the best that this amazing city has to offer.
There is a wide variety to the events, from idyllic sunny days to wild nights out. We keep an eye out for suitable events to host, but please do make suggestions if there's an event you'd like to see happen.
This group is open to anyone and everyone. The purpose of it is not for dating or meeting that special someone, but if you do find romance then that's an extra bonus for you. There's only one rule that you must stick to: always be kind and respectful.
Some events may have a charge, especially where venue bookings, tickets, activities or deposits are involved. Any additional money made from events helps contribute towards the running of the group, including Meetup subscription fees, event administration and ongoing organising costs.
If you have any concerns or requirements, please feel free to send me or any of the organisers a message and we'll do our best to help and/or accommodate your needs.
There’s an optional WhatsApp group for Exeter Escapades — handy for chatting between events, sharing ideas, or seeing what’s coming up next.
Meetup will still be the main hub for events.

There is also an optional donation link for anyone who would like to support Exeter Escapades and the wider South West Social Events groups.
Your optional donation helps keep the groups active and gives members like you more opportunities to enjoy events, meet new people and enjoy Exeter, Devon and the surrounding areas.
Donations can be for any amount, and supporters will be thanked publicly unless they prefer to remain anonymous.
