Let's watch live International Futbol (soccer) and Rugby matches! Chicago has a huge International community that supports Soccer and Rugby teams from all around the world. Let's go to the many different Sports Pubs around the city and watch the matches live and have breakfast. And since Chicago is a big sports town in itself and we have many people from around the country living here...we will also plan to watch American sporting events! So, come on out and support your country, your city, your …

So you're bored, I mean like really bored and you decided to sign up for meet up. There are some crazy folks out there and meeting them in private at a local spot still seems disheartening. He might be bald or she might have 10 kids and three divorce under her belt..yea, crazy shit. My goal for this meetup group is to occasionally hit up clubs/bars and dance our asses off. Maybe grab some last minute tickets to go see a-no-longer-in-his-prime-but-is-still-trying comedy show, a good laugh is alw …

This is a social group for people in their 20s/30s in the South-Western Suburbs (Berwyn to OakPark to Naperville to Downers Grove) who are looking to meet like minded people for fun times! I propose wine, bars, happy hours, bowling, dinner, game nights, movies, and more!

Random evanston! Random Evanston is open to 30-45 year olds (new or old to Evanston) who enjoy life, creativity, eclecticism and randomness.

Our meetups will be anything from going out for a drink, art shows, music, bars, theater, film, brunch, wine tasting, happy hour, dancing lessons, dancing summer festivals, coffee events, dinner and other fun, eclectic or whatever random activities that look awe …

The name pretty much sums it up - we meetup to play bar trivia (or pub quiz, if you prefer).  This meet-up is for young people (mid-20ish to mid-30ish) who want to meet new people, check out new bars, and know lots of random stuff (or want to learn!).

Meet other local dive bar enthusiasts and find the best (and worst) Chicago dive bars. The idea behind this group is to seek out some of the most old-school, divey establishments with friendly folks who enjoy a cheap drink or two. We'll be visiting a range of dives in various neighborhoods based on recommendations and infamous reputations.

We are a group of unlikely friends that enjoy a diverse amount of activities ranging from comedy clubs, to play-dates, trivia, movies, dining out and anything fun! Singles, married, gay, straight, parents, athletes, nerds all our welcome to the congregation of suburbanism.

This group is designed for Germans, people of German descendant and people from all around the world who are interested in German culture. Our meet ups are about an up to date Germany which is way more than oomptata music, beer and brats. It is about theater, literature, music and a modern and ever changing culture. Join the fun - wir beißen nicht :)

This group started in May 2011, and we've read novels by Joyce, Malraux, Kafka, Wright, Mishima, Faulkner, Nabokov, Unamuno, Ellison, Hamsun, Woolf, Biely, Gide, and many others.  We try to have a good time discussing the books without descending to small talk, think critically without descending to pedantry, etc. Also, as the title shows, we've expanded our reading list since the group started.  We don't really want to title the group something as vague as "Chicago Literature Group," etc., and …

Even in 1,000+ member groups there are very few people whom you really get to know as good friends. The problem is that most groups are open to anyone, so you end up with a large group, low participation, a lot of "no shows", and a bunch of people with nothing in common. This is a group of awesome desis out of Chicago & suburbs and it is intended to be exclusive. It is a smaller tight knit group making it easier to make friends not just acquaintances and intended to build genuine long lasting f …

Friends & Conversation with drinks: If you had a long day/week, join us for good conversation and drinks (sometimes with food).  We invite you to join us if you want to socialize and take a load off. Suggestions are always welcome. Tell us a little about yourself in your intro, everyone can see it.

This group is about meeting people, making friends, and being active.  This is not just a place to drink and date, this is a place to have new experiences and become a part of the community. The target audience is 20's and 30's, and I'm afraid we need to be strict about that.  No one is going to card you, but the demographic we're looking for is active, young people.  Please don't join if you have adult children :) Our goal is to develop activities of every type, and foster an inclusive environm …

For those who love hockey, craft beer, good food and meeting people with the same interests.

You can either arrive at the posted time for dinner and drinks, or about an hour later to join us for games.  Drinking while playing is strongly encouraged. :) Please try …

Hi Everyone! Welcome to our group. After attending several events and meeting some wonderful people thru meetup Liz, Sheila and I formed this group in March of 2008. Little did we know that this group would turn out to be the most popular in the western suburbs and with that form many new friendships along the way. Without the initial help & suggestions and input of the original members this group would not be what it is today. Many thanks should go to them and to Liz & Sheila who stayed focus o …
