How do I meet people in Bordeaux?

When we asked people living in Bordeaux about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded:

"Expats in Bordeaux, often join various clubs and activities to meet new people and immerse themselves in the local culture. They may participate in wine tasting clubs, given Bordeaux's reputation as a world-renowned wine region. They might also join language exchange groups to improve their French language skills while helping others learn English. Outdoor activities are also popular, with expats often joining hiking, cycling, or running clubs to enjoy the beautiful French countryside while meeting like-minded individuals. There are also various sports clubs, from football to rugby, that expats can join. Cultural activities are another way for expats to meet people in Bordeaux. They might join art appreciation groups, attend local theater performances, or participate in cooking classes to learn about French cuisine. Expats often meet people through volunteering as well. There are numerous opportunities to volunteer in Bordeaux, from helping out at local schools to participating in environmental conservation projects. Networking events and social gatherings are also common ways for expats to meet people in Bordeaux. These might be organized by local businesses, international organizations, or even the local government. Finally, many expats meet people simply by participating in everyday activities. They might strike up a conversation at a local café, meet neighbors at a community event, or make friends with other parents at their children's school. The key is to be open and willing to engage with the local community," said one expat who made the move to Bordeaux.
