How do I find social meetups near me in San Francisco?

Open Social, allow location access, and browse plans near your neighbourhood. SF plans are spread across all neighbourhoods — Mission, Castro, Hayes Valley, Noe Valley, the Sunset, and beyond.

How do I make friends in San Francisco?

SF's social scene rewards intentional structure over organic proximity. Join a recurring activity group — a Golden Gate Park running crew, a Marin hiking group, a yoga class in the Mission. Consistency is the mechanism. Three weeks at the same group and you will know names; two months and some of them will be friends.

What outdoor activities are popular for meeting people in SF?

Running in Golden Gate Park, hiking in the Marin Headlands and Mount Tamalpais, cycling across the Golden Gate Bridge and through the Presidio, and outdoor yoga are the most popular social outdoor formats.

About the community

San Francisco is the technology capital of the world and one of the loneliest cities in America. The "tech bubble" social dynamic — transient professional networks, long work hours, and high housing mobility — has created a city where deep social roots are genuinely difficult to establish. Social is built for exactly this.

Browse running groups in Golden Gate Park, hiking crews heading to the Marin Headlands and Mount Tamalpais, cycling routes across the Golden Gate Bridge, yoga sessions in the Mission and Noe Valley, and coffee meetups across Hayes Valley and the Castro.
