Lisbon: City of Spies
About the event
🕵️ Your mission begins in Lisbon. Meeting people as an adult is weirdly hard. Standing in a bar hoping someone talks to you is worse. This is the opposite of that. You turn up at Largo do Rato, get put on a team of 2–6 people you've never met, and within minutes you're laughing with them, doing something a bit silly in the middle of Lisbon, and finding out everyone's story without anybody having to ask "so, what do you do?" There's a spy story running underneath it — an unfolding mission through the city, delivered through your phone. That's the excuse. It gives you something to do with your hands, something to laugh about, and a reason to talk to strangers that doesn't feel like networking. What you leave with is a couple of hours of shared jokes and a few people you'd happily see again. Coming alone? That's the best version. Solo participants are matched with other players into a team of 2–6. 🎉 Meetup member price We originally planned this as a paid event, but we've negotiated an exclusive launch deal for our Meetup community: your spot is completely FREE!

Nobody walks in front of you holding a sign. The story and the missions arrive on your phone while you and your team explore Lisbon together, so everyone's actually involved rather than following along at the back. 📸 Help Us Launch (and get free photos!) To celebrate the launch, we’ll be capturing photos and short videos of the teams in action. By joining, you’re giving us permission to use these awesome candid shots to help us grow the community. The best part? We’ll share the full photo gallery with all participants after the event, so you get great memories (and content) from your Lisbon adventure! How it goes 01 — Meet your team. Up to six strangers, one team. The awkward bit lasts about ninety seconds. 02 — Get your briefing. Your phone hands you a story and sets you loose. 03 — Explore Lisbon. Wander the city together, swapping stories like you've known each other for years. 04 — Be a bit silly. Take the photo. Do the voice. Everyone's in it together — that's half the fun. 05 — Pull it off together. Someone will have the idea that cracks it. That feels good when it's yours and better when it isn't. 06 — See where it goes. The quest ends. Whether the group does is up to you. How to join 1. RSVP here on Meetup. 2.
