About this event
# Most parties are terrible for meeting people. So on September 05th, we flip the whole night around. 🔥
🎟️ **[Grab your Early Bird ticket here](https://socialmeltingpot.com/special-edition/)**[ ](https://socialmeltingpot.com/special-edition/)before they sell out. Open air, 2 floors, party until 04:00.

### Here's how it works:
You come at **19:00**, while the music is still low and talking is easy. You grab a drink and pick up your **language flags**, the stickers that show which languages you speak. Best icebreaker ever. You chat, you meet people, and when the party kicks off later, you already know half the dancefloor 🌍🍻
***
### Going out is fun…
Until you actually have to start a conversation.
We make that part easier, social and fun.
