☀️ F*ck the Small Talk: Edinburgh #7

Sold out or can't make it? Drop us your email and we'll keep you in the loop for the next one! 😎

After traveling worldwide from Berlin to London, Lisbon to Malta, and Mexico City, we are finally back in Edinburgh for a second season!😎

📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?

F*ck the Small Talk is an out-of-the-box social experience where strangers come together for an evening of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also just a different + cool way of meeting new people by getting out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!

Join us for an evening of games, talks, and connections with friends you haven’t met yet. Join if you get annoyed after being asked what you do, where you are from, and how long you have been in Edinburgh, every single time you meet someone. If you feel that there are better questions in life then this is the place for you. 🙌

📓 HOW DOES IT WORK?

We start with a short & sweet intro talk followed by a few light-hearted group games to warm up. After that, we split you up into small groups and start with the conversation rounds (within groups of 3 people).

We'll have our own awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. (You’ll never have to speak in public if you don’t want.) You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. 🍭 (Introverts, you'll love it too ❤️.)

🧧 WHAT'S INCLUDED?

⏰ 3 hours of facilitated and curated activities

👥 A space to meet new people in the least boring way possible

🙌🏽 Access to the post-event WhatsApp group

💛 Supporting our mission to slowly eliminate small talk around the world

🎫 Also includes those pesky ticket fees!

💛 WHAT THEY SAY

🗣 “This is the kind of activity humanity needs every weekend. Thank you for all.” - Sonya

🗣 “I loved F*ck the small talk, I was a little bit nervous at first but they are pros at making you feel comfortable with the rest of the group, the activities are really fun and I enjoyed every second (consider that the one who's saying this is very, very shy). Give it a try!” - Brenda

🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open and no judgment. Everyone that joined was ready for great conversation and helped with different perspectives. So much fun! I can't wait for the next one! “ - Yaz

🗣 "It’s a wonderful experience, it’s like being a kid again, when you were at the park, playing with other kids, and just decided you were going to be best friends for the next hours. Maybe you’ll never see those kids again, but that hour was amazing because you both opened up and trusted each other." - Sara

🤓 QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE

‣ Can I come alone?

Of course, in fact, we encourage it!

‣ Can I be late?

Please try not to. We start 15 min after the official start. Late arrivals tend to disrupt the flow of the event.

‣ Can I bring my pet?

While we love furry friends, please leave your good dog/cat/rabbit/fish/llama/raccoon at home for this iteration of the event.

‣ Can I get a refund if I can't make it?

We do not offer refunds or ticket transfers to another event date. However, feel free to pass on your ticket to a trusted friend, provided they also sign up on Luma! We're also happy to give you a discount for a future event. 😎
