How do I find social events near me in London?

Open Social, allow location access, and browse plans near your postcode. You can filter by activity type — running, yoga, padel, coffee — and join with a single tap.

Are there free social meetups in London?

Yes. Most social plans on Social are free — running groups, coffee meetups, language exchanges, and hiking sessions. Paid plans (like padel court bookings) clearly show the price and take a deposit to keep attendance reliable.

How do I meet people and make friends in London?

The fastest way is to join recurring activities rather than one-off events. Seeing the same faces weekly builds trust naturally. Pick a running group, a board game night, or a yoga class and commit to showing up three weeks in a row.

Is Social available across all London boroughs?

Yes — Social uses GPS to show you plans across all of London. You can explore by proximity or browse plans in specific neighbourhoods like Shoreditch, Brixton, Notting Hill, or Canary Wharf.
