[Join our new Whatsapp Group for the latest updates!](https://fk2mqh.s.gy/whatsapp-invite) *Signing up or clicking "RSVP" on a Meetup event does not guarantee a spot. Spots are limited so please reserve your ticket.* ***\>\>[TICKETS](https://luma.com/gtw4x7jg?utm_source=mtup)<<*** Well... I feel like I need to stop mentioning the numbers in these descriptions. First edition: **80+ people signed up.** Second edition: **180+ people signed up.** So naturally, for the third edition you guys decided that wasn't enough and **OVER 220+ PEOPLE SIGNED UP.** For an event where we have roughly **a third of that number in tickets available.** At this point I'm starting to think you're doing this deliberately. Every single edition so far has **sold out**, usually way before the event even starts getting close. And every single time, we get the same question: **WHEN IS THE NEXT ONE?** So obviously... Round 4 🎮 We're doing it again. And considering how many of you keep trying to come, we may have to accept that doing this **every two weeks isn't enough anymore.** We'll have Mario Kart, Poker and plenty of board games again, and we'll keep adding things based on what you guys actually want to play. We're providing the controllers. You lot are providing the questionable behaviour. *And now, of course, the famous ChatGPT-esque list :* 🎮 Mario Kart Tournament 🎲 Board Games ♠️ Poker 🍻 Drinks & Social 😂 Completely unnecessary amounts of trash talk 🤝 Meet new people 🏆 Bragging rights that expire approximately two weeks later ### A quick note about the group: We still filter RSVPs a little. Not because we're trying to be exclusive, but because the atmosphere at these nights has been genuinely amazing, and we'd really like to keep it that way. Also... ### Dress to express. Every edition we'll pick a few of our favourite outfits to feature on Nomad House's Instagram. So don't get scared if you see me walking around with a Polaroid. Whether you're coming to win, lose spectacularly, discover your new favourite board game, or simply make some new friends, we'd love to have you. See you Sunday. \~ Milliardo **One important thing:** Every edition of Mario Kart Night so far has **sold out.** The third edition had **220+ people sign up across Meetup and Luma, more than THREE TIMES the number of tickets we actually had available.** So if you're planning to come, please don't leave getting your ticket until the last minute. **Signing up or clicking "RSVP" on Meetup does NOT guarantee a spot if the event has reached maximum capacity. Only a ticket does.** ***[>>TICKETS<<](https://luma.com/gtw4x7jg?utm_source=mtup)*** ## 🇪🇸 Español Bueno... Creo que voy a tener que dejar de mencionar los números en estas descripciones. Primera edición: **más de 80 personas apuntadas.** Segunda edición: **más de 180 personas apuntadas.** Así que, naturalmente, para la tercera edición decidisteis que eso no era suficiente y **SE APUNTARON MÁS DE 220 PERSONAS.** Para un evento en el que tenemos disponibles aproximadamente **un tercio de ese número en entradas.** A estas alturas empiezo a pensar que lo hacéis a propósito. Todas las ediciones hasta ahora han **agotado entradas**, normalmente bastante antes de que llegue el día del evento. Y cada vez recibimos la misma pregunta: **¿CUÁNDO ES EL PRÓXIMO?** Así que obviamente... **Round 4 🎮** Lo hacemos otra vez. Y viendo cuántos seguís intentando venir, quizá tengamos que aceptar que hacerlo **cada dos semanas ya no es suficiente.** Volveremos a tener Mario Kart, Poker y un montón de juegos de mesa, y seguiremos añadiendo cosas según lo que realmente queráis jugar. Nosotros ponemos los mandos. Vosotros ponéis el comportamiento cuestionable. *Y ahora, por supuesto, la famosa lista estilo ChatGPT:* 🎮 Torneo de Mario Kart 🎲 Juegos de mesa ♠️ Poker 🍻 Bebidas & Social 😂 Cantidades completamente innecesarias de trash talk 🤝 Conoce gente nueva 🏆 Derecho a presumir durante aproximadamente dos semanas ### Una nota rápida sobre el grupo: Seguimos filtrando un poco los RSVPs. No porque intentemos ser exclusivos, sino porque el ambiente de estas noches ha sido realmente increíble y nos gustaría mucho mantenerlo así. Además... ### Dress to express. En cada edición elegiremos algunos de nuestros outfits favoritos para compartirlos en el Instagram de Nomad House. Así que no os asustéis si me veis por ahí con una Polaroid. Tanto si vienes para ganar, perder de forma espectacular, descubrir tu nuevo juego de mesa favorito o simplemente conocer gente nueva, nos encantará tenerte. Nos vemos el domingo. \~ Milliardo **Una cosa importante:** Todas las ediciones de Mario Kart Night hasta ahora han **agotado entradas.** En la tercera edición se apuntaron **más de 220 personas entre Meetup y Luma, más de TRES VECES el número de entradas que teníamos disponibles.** Así que si estás pensando en venir, por favor no dejes la compra de tu entrada para el último momento. **Apuntarte o hacer clic en "RSVP" en Meetup NO garantiza tu plaza si el evento ha alcanzado su capacidad máxima. Solo una entrada garantiza tu plaza.** ***[>>ENTRADAS<<](https://luma.com/gtw4x7jg?utm_source=mtup)***

Bimonthly Saturday Meetup in Barcelona (Big Meetup) October 2026

Bimonthly Saturday Meetup in Barcelona (Big Meetup) October 2026

Sat, Oct 3, 4:00 PM
From New in Barcelona – Meet People, Social Events & Expats
4.6

# 🚨🌍 THE BIG INTERNATIONAL MEETUP IS BACK — APPARENTLY 183 PEOPLE WASN'T ENOUGH 🌍🚨 Barcelona, we have a recurring problem. Every two months we organize our BIG International Meetup. And every two months, an unreasonable number of humans appear. Previous evidence: 🍻 183 internationals 🍻 154 internationals 🍻 175 internationals 🍻 148 internationals At this point, calling it a “Big Meetup” feels like calling IKEA a small furniture shop. This is no longer an event. It's immigration with background music. And on Saturday, October 3rd… We're doing it again. Because apparently we looked at 183 people and thought: “Hmm. Needs more people.” 📅 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3RD ⏰ FROM 18:00 📍 SONORA SPORTS TAVERN ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🍺 18:00–19:00: CAPITALISM TEMPORARILY STOPS WORKING 🚨 FIRST 50 BEERS = €1 EACH Yes. ONE. EURO. Not €1 off. Not €1 plus seventeen mysterious Barcelona terrace supplements. €1. For a beer. In Barcelona. In 2026. We don't understand it either. Our economists have resigned. So arrive early. Because there are 50 beers... …and potentially 150+ thirsty internationals. You don't need a PhD in mathematics to understand where this is going. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🌍 WHAT TO EXPECT Imagine putting 150+ people from around the world into one bar. Now remove everyone's ability to ask creative opening questions. The result: “WHERE ARE YOU FROM?” Approximately 6,847 times. 🇮🇹 “Italy.” “OMG I LOVE ITALY!” “Where did you go?” “…I've never been.” Perfect. Friendship established. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 THE INTERNATIONAL MEETUP LIFE CYCLE 18:03 You arrive alone. Your brain: “This was a terrible idea.” 18:09 Someone: “Hey! Where are you from?” Your brain: “Protect this person at all costs.” 18:37 You've met 7 people. 19:42 You've met 23 people. 21:16 You're discussing childhood trauma with someone whose surname you don't know. 22:34 “WE SHOULD DEFINITELY TRAVEL TOGETHER!” You met this person four hours ago. Neither of you knows the other's last name. But apparently you're going to Croatia together. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🍻 THE FOUR BIGGEST LIES OF THE NIGHT #4: “I'm only staying for an hour.” 😂 #3: “I'm only having one drink.” HAHAHAHA. #2: “I'm definitely not dancing.” Please. And the undefeated world champion: 🥇 “LET'S DEFINITELY MEET AGAIN NEXT WEEK!” A beautiful international tradition. Usually followed by absolutely no communication for 73 days. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📱 THE WHATSAPP GROUP PHENOMENON At some point somebody will create: 🔥🌍 BARCELONA CRAZY FAMILY 2026 ❤️🍻🔥 Saturday: 127 messages Sunday: 348 messages Monday: “Guys anyone wants coffee?” Tuesday: Silence. Wednesday: Silence. Three months later: “Does anyone know a room available from October?” The circle of expat life is complete. 🦁 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💃 DANCING At some point, people may dance. There will be three categories: 💃 People who can actually dance 🕺 People who believe they can dance 🧍 People holding a beer and moving one shoulder All three groups are equally welcome. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❤️ COMING ALONE? GOOD. Seriously. Coming alone is basically a cheat code. Because when you're with friends, you talk to your friends. When you're alone, your survival instincts activate: “Hello, random human. Please adopt me.” Twenty minutes later... You have friends. It's basically Tinder for friendship, except nobody needs to pretend they enjoy hiking. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 👀 WHO SHOULD COME? ✔ Just arrived in Barcelona? Come. ✔ Been here 8 years but still tell people you're “kind of new”? We respect the commitment. Come. ✔ Your friends cancelled? Excellent. Upgrade them. ✔ Your flatmate is your entire social life? We need to intervene. ✔ Your situationship said: “Sorryyy, crazy week, maybe another day ❤️” Oh, sweetheart. Come. ✔ Your therapist told you to socialize more? We cannot legally prescribe this event. But we're extremely confident your therapist did NOT mean: “Stay home and watch 94 Instagram Stories of other people having fun.” ✔ Introvert? Perfect. Arrive at 18:00. Stand awkwardly for approximately 4 minutes. Someone will adopt you. This happens naturally. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🚨 BUT MEETUP ONLY SHOWS 17 PEOPLE GOING!!! Every. Single. Time. Someone sees the Meetup attendance and thinks: “Oh… maybe nobody is going.” Meanwhile, people are coming through our international community, WhatsApp, Instagram, Facebook and other groups. And suddenly... 150+ humans. Previous editions didn't hallucinate themselves: So if Meetup shows fewer people... Congratulations. You've discovered that the internet occasionally fails to represent reality. Scientists are investigating. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📸 IMPORTANT WARNING Photos and videos will happen. Which means if you tell your friends: “I'm tired, I'm staying home Saturday.” …and then appear in the background of an Instagram Reel at 23:47 dancing like you're auditioning for Eurovision... We cannot protect you. Choose your lies carefully. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 YOUR BRAIN ON OCTOBER 3RD At approximately 17:30 your brain may begin negotiations: “Maybe I'll stay home…” Ignore it. That's the same brain that says: “I'll scroll Instagram for five minutes.” …and suddenly it's 1:43 AM and you're watching a video explaining whether penguins have knees. Your brain has lost voting privileges. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚠️ CLICK “GOING” Not “maybe.” Not: “I'll see how I feel.” We know how this movie ends. Saturday arrives. Your sofa becomes suspiciously comfortable. Your brain says: “I'll go to the next one.” Then Sunday morning you open Instagram and see 150 people having fun. And suddenly: REGRET. Premium-quality, locally sourced, organic regret. 🌱 Made in Barcelona. So click GOING now. Future You is notoriously unreliable. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📅 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3RD ⏰ FROM 18:00 📍 SONORA SPORTS TAVERN 🍺 FIRST 50 BEERS = €1 🌍 150+ internationals expected based on previous editions Come alone. Come with friends. Come because you're new in Barcelona. Come because you've lived here for seven years and somehow still have only four friends — two of whom moved to Berlin. Just come. Because on Sunday you can either say: “That was ridiculous. 😂” Or watch everyone else's photos and think: “…I should've gone.” And between those two options... We already know which one your brain hates more. 😌 🔥🌍 THE BIG INTERNATIONAL MEETUP — OCTOBER 3RD 183 was the record. Now Barcelona... please behave irresponsibly enough to break it. 🍻😂 Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/new-in-barcelona/events/316460715 📘 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/1095395983380629 💬 WhatsApp Group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/H8NsoGLVuGsHJ0xyt6LRCQ FINAL WARNING You have two options. Option A: Stay home. Watch Netflix ask, "Are you still watching?" Option B: Come to Sonora, accidentally make friends from 12 countries, laugh until your cheeks hurt, and spend the next week trying to remember everyone's names. Choose wisely. (We all know you'll end up saying, "I almost didn't come..." right before calling it one of your best nights in Barcelona.) 🍻🌍😂
