How it works
A month of evenings out in Vienna: how it works
- Pick one regular thing a week, such as a run club on Wednesday or a game night on Friday. A fixed slot is easier to keep than a plan.
- Open the official page and check the date, time and price; January schedules shift after the holidays.
- Open Meet & Mint to see who else is going and say hi in the event chat. Many of the events on our sites are also in the app.
- Order what you like. Use the phrases above if it helps; nobody at a quiz or a run-club coffee is counting.
