Whether you’ve just arrived in Ticino or you’ve lived here for years, this friendly, no-pressure meetup is the easiest way to practice languages and meet new people. We set up tables by language, provide topic cards and “level stickers,” and rotate partners every 12–15 minutes. Absolute beginners to fluent speakers—everyone is welcome.

Come solo or with friends. Stay for the whole session or drop in for a single round. You’ll leave with new words, new confidence, and new connections.
