Improv show + pre-show mingle
Saturday, 30 May 2026, 17:30 · Pygméteatern, Vegagatan 17, Vasastan
Hey beautiful people, On May 30 I am organising an improv show and I would love to see some friendly familiar faces in the audience to help inspire the show and throw the actors on side adventures they didn't think they were gonna go on. We kick off the evening with a pre-show mingle hosted by our very own Risha. After the show you're very welcome to stay too to just hang out or play games. Last time we had a good bunch of people from this group show up and the pre-show mingle looked like a lot of fun! Program: 17:30 Doors open + pre-show mingle with Risha. 19:00 It Seems Commonplace, but it isn't - the improvised play 20:45 - late - the bar is open until at least 23:30. Stay and hang out or play games. There is also a storytelling event going on stage from 21 that you can check out. Or just hang out in the café :) To help attract mire people, it would be great if you could RSVP to our Meet-Up and/ or Luma event as well: MeetUp: https://meetu.ps/e/PYq7Q/tbjGr/i Luma: https://luma.com/7zjzoaqz Tickets: 250 (regular) or 175 (discounted) Ticket link: https://billet.to/1gtaj/meet About the show: In a time where robots are taking over more and more of our creative task, writing our screen plays, music, making I art, we want to celebrate human creativity. For every show we ask an artist to design a poster for one show only that we in our turn, turn into an improvised play. And you as an audience gets to inspire the show as well with written suggestions that will put us on unexpected adventures and change the course of the story.

Sun & Basketball in the park
Sunday, 17 May 2026, 15:00 · Rålambshovsparken
We meet while the sun is still up and catch some tan. I'll bring a big picnic blanket. Feel free to bring some food or drinks for yourself if you are coming for vibes only. Once the sun is not as harsh we can go to the court and play some basketball or whatever that will look like 😅 This is not mandatory, and it's totally okay to just stay on the blanket if you are not athletic, are afraid of the ball etc... If we end up not playing because the teenagers have taken the court, thats also okay 😁 This is just a test run...But I kinda hope to meet people who love the game so we can do this regularly and we don't always have to make it an official event.

Fika ☕️: Debt vs No Debt
Wednesday, 13 May 2026, 19:00 · Götgatan 15, 116 46, Stockholm
Hello Let’s Meet for Fika today: The Conversation topic is debt vs. No debt. Questions: - Is it better to have debt in your life or no debt? Why? - If you have no debt, or have never had debt before, are you too risk averse? - If you have debt, or have had debt before, have you taken too many risks in life? - If it’s Saturday night, and you still want to enjoy life, but have no money left in your normal bank account, is it worth it to take out the Klarna card to still make the purchase to enjoy life? If so/not, Why? - Would you rather have a business debt, or a loan on a house ( a debt and a loan are not the same), or both? - Would you prefer to date someone with debt or no debt? Why ? Is there beauty in risk? Is there beauty in no risk ? - Do you follow more of Dave Ramsey (no debt) or Robert Kiyosaki’a (debt in assets like real estate) principles? This is not so much a group discussion, more that we meet together, and people talk amongst themselves and is free-flowing. See everyone tonight! 🚀🙂 Meet at Espresso House in the address below! 👇 At 19!

1st of May @Skinnarviksberget
Friday, 1 May 2026, 12:00 · Skinnarviksberget
Hey everyone ☀️ I’m putting together a little 1st of May hangout at Skinnarviksberget — and it’s honestly shaping up to be the perfect day. Forecast says 22 degrees and full sun, so we’re taking full advantage of it 🌿 The plan is simple: picnic + grill, good food, something cold to drink, music, and just a really easy, fun day outside together. No stress, just good vibes and spring energy. And the view… honestly one of the most beautiful in Stockholm — overlooking the water and the city, surrounded by greenery. It’s the kind of spot that makes you want to stay all day 🌸 Bring whatever you feel like eating/drinking, maybe a blanket, and anything that makes the day nicer (games, speakers, etc). I’ll make sure we grab a good spot near a grill. Come hang out for as long as you want — the more the merrier 💛 Let me know if you’re in!
