we started this because we missed it ourselves.
a city full of people, and no low-key way to meet them. not through bazrs where everyone already knows each other. not by swiping through ‘friendship apps’, not by forcing yourself in ‘coffee with strangers’.
we wanted a room full of interesting people where you just walk in, and the obsession does the rest.
hosted in spaces that care about their crowd.
run by local owners who give every hangout its own character.
the people behind it.
we’re julie & matthijs.
we believe the most extraordinary thing about obsession is that somewhere, someone shares it.
follow yours without apology, without restraint. and find the ones who understand.
hyped to meet you.
follow shared obsessions as it grows.
once a quarter, we share what we've built, what surprised us, and what's next. plus invites to new hangouts when they're ready.
