How do I meet people in Spain?
When we asked people living in Spain about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...
"Definitely try out the International Newcomers Club. Though they have one or two men in the group...they are very open to more. They do many fun things during the week and have activities such as wine tasting parties on weekends. There is at least one event monthly and you meet many fantastic people. The American Women's Club is also nice, but they are oriented towards community service and raising funds for charities. They do have monthly meetings and have a club house with a large lending library," wrote a member who made the move to Madrid, Spain.

"Many expats in Spain join local sports clubs that offer activities such as soccer, running, and tennis, as well as other activities like language exchange and book clubs. In addition, they often take advantage of Spain's vast cultural offerings, from flamenco classes to wine tastings. Expats looking to mix with locals might join Meet-Ups and other community-based activities, visit local bars and cafés, and attend Spanish festivals, street fairs, and other events. Expats might also attend events hosted by international organizations or through online connections with other expats from the same home country," explained one expat living in Spain.
