How do I meet people in Manchester?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Manchester about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"Expats in Manchester, often join various clubs and activities to meet new people and integrate into the local community. These include sports clubs such as football, rugby, or cricket, where they can both participate and spectate. They may also join fitness clubs or gyms, which offer a range of classes and activities. Cultural clubs are also popular, such as language exchange groups, book clubs, or film societies, which provide opportunities to learn about British culture and improve English language skills. There are also international societies that cater to specific nationalities, offering a sense of community and familiarity for expats. In addition to clubs, expats often meet people through social events and gatherings. These could be organised by local community centres, religious institutions, or even through their workplace. Networking events and professional meetups are also common, especially in a city like Manchester which has a thriving business scene. Expats may also use online platforms to connect with others. Websites like Meetup or Internations offer a variety of groups and events tailored to expats in Manchester, from hiking groups to cooking classes. Social media platforms like Facebook also have groups dedicated to expats in the city, where members can ask for advice, share experiences, and organise meetups. Volunteering is another great way for expats to meet people. Many charities and organisations in Manchester are always looking for volunteers, and this can be a rewarding way to give back to the community while making new friends. Finally, taking part in local festivals and public events is a fun and easy way to meet people. Manchester hosts a variety of events throughout the year, from music festivals to food markets, which attract a diverse crowd of locals and expats alike," wrote a member who made the move to Manchester, England.
