F*ck the Small Talk has traveled the world from Berlin, Buenos Aires, London, Lisbon, to Mexico City, and is now back in Lisbon! 🌞

📦 WHAT'S THIS ABOUT?
FTST is a one-of-a-kind social experience where strangers come together for an afternoon of meaningful, fun, and deep conversation. It’s also just a different & cool way of meeting new people by getting a bit out of your comfort zone and skipping the small talk!
Join us for 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 have been in Lisbon 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 (with 3-4 people). We'll have awesome question cards that will guide the flow of the conversation. You'll be guided by an experienced host who'll make sure everything goes smoothly. (her name is Charlie and you'll love her!) 🍭

🕹 HOW TO JOIN?
Our events are limited to 30 guests to ensure a cozy atmosphere. (more than that is a party!) We do our best to curate events with similar ages and a healthy gender balance! Request to join above and we'll give you an answer in less than 48 hours! Our events tend to sell out quickly (for real), if you didn't get in make sure to try again next time.
PS. You won't get charged until we accept your ticket! 🎟️

🧧 HOW MUCH IS IT?
The cost to attend is €15 (early llama) - €18 (general llama) and includes the following:
⏰ 3 hours of facilitated and curated activities
👥 A space to meet to meet some friends you haven't met yet
💛 Supporting our mission of human connection experiences around the world
(🎫 also includes those pesky ticket fees!)

🌳 WHERE IS IT?
We host our events in awesome cafes, rooftops, and bars across the city. We only reveal the location to ticket holders 24 hours before the event. This edition will take place in central Lisbon.

💛 WHAT THEY SAY
🗣 “Great way to connect with people in a more meaningful way. Get to the heart of the matter, dive straight into what really counts!” - Matthias

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

🗣 “F*ck the Small Talk changes the narrative from "Where are you from?" to "When was the last time you laughed uncontrollably?" and I think that's beautiful.” - Monika

🗣 “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

🗣 "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

🗣 “Lively, interesting, introspective, completely open and no judgement. 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

🤓 FAQ
• Can I come alone?
Of course, in fact, we encourage it!

Sure thing, send us a message!

It depends on where the event is! Message us to make sure. But it's always a YES in our hearts.

🙅‍♀️📱This event is a no-phone experience. Keep them tucked in your pocket 🙅‍♀️📱
We started in Berlin back in 2019 out of the frustration of being asked 'where are you from?' an endless amount of times at every single meetup! Now there are chapters in 15 cities including Medellin, Lisbon, Buenos Aires, Zurich, Malta, Toronto, and London! 🗺️
