FAQs
What is Common Ground?
Common Ground hosts relaxed, in-person social events designed to help adults meet new people, make friends, and form genuine connections in a welcoming environment.
Who are the events for?
Our events are for adults who want to meet new people — whether you’re single, new to London, working remotely, a single parent, or simply looking to expand your social circle.
Do I have to be single to attend?
No. While we do host singles events, we also run “make new friends” socials that are open to anyone looking to meet new people.
What happens at an event?
Events are hosted and designed to feel natural and pressure-free. You’re free to chat and mingle, with optional icebreakers and hosts on hand to welcome guests and help make introductions.
Are the events structured or informal?
Most events are informal and social, like a relaxed party. Some may include light structure such as icebreaker cards or guided introductions, but nothing forced or awkward.
Do I need to bring anything?
Just your ticket (digital is fine) and an open mindset. Drinks are purchased directly from the venue.
Where are events held?
Events take place in carefully selected bars and social venues, usually in central London.
Can I come on my own?
Absolutely. Many attendees come solo — our events are designed specifically with this in mind.
What if I feel nervous?
That’s completely normal. Our hosts are there to welcome you, help break the ice, and make sure everyone feels included.
What is your cancellation policy?
Cancellation terms vary by event and are shown at checkout. Please check the event listing for specific details.
