New: Gatherings and events in Egypt

Post new topic

Julien

Hi,

Would you like to have a coffee, organize a dinner or find people for activities in Egypt?

To help you meet people and find outings in Egypt, we launched a Gatherings and Events section in Egypt: you can now follow what’s going on in your area and make the most of your time off.

You can also create events and organize a gathering with the Expat.com members.

How to create a gathering?

On the Events in Egypt page, click on “Post an event”.
Fill in the form with the details related to the gathering: date, place, hour… and post your event.

It’s now time to invite the other members! You can opt for a public event or a private one (Invitation or Invitation plus).

To send invites, click on “Invite friends” on your event page and select who you wish to invite.

Get informed of who is coming through this page and get in touch with the other members or add pictures of the events in the comments.

https://www.expat.com/images/misc/screen-topic/comment-photo/en.jpg

A photo album dedicated to the event will then be created.

What do you think of this new feature?

Thanks,

Julien

I think this is a really good idea, it will help people who come out alone to meet others over in their area.
Well done just what is needed.

I'm a guitar teacher in new cairo, would like to meet musicians to jam and rehearse, I play blues, funk rock and classic rock
I also would like to meet new students seeking lessons

I am not a musician, but have a good appreciation for music.  Are you interested in having an audience?  If so, maybe post an "event" as is suggested above.

alaa_allam

Totally agree and all of people can join gathering to get out from this virtual fake life behind screens

rideronthestorm

Definitely would love to have audience but I am not playing in any bands for 2 months now unfortunately...
but I will post an event and invite musicians to jam together. Thanks for the idea

Dear Julien,Where is exactly this meeting on the beach?

elimasr

Any details of the event? Where exactly? What time? Children friendly)))?

Priscilla

The first post of Julien, with a photo of the beach,  is just an illustration ( example ) of an event cover. There is actually no meeting on the beach !

Thanks

Priscilla

rideronthestorm

No specific events yet, I suggested a music gathering and an open jam for musicians, if it was held in a garden or wide open space I am sure it would fit children and family...

Dear Priscila,

Thank you very much, but this is a good idea, why not make it on the beach,

We are going to organize a fishing cruise trip in red sea on 24 march only  2 places in the trip are available, the cruise will take 3 days in a boat in the middle of the sea.
the coast will be 1000 Egyptian pounds.be well.

Orphans Day is a national celebration in Egypt that falls on the first Friday of April and has been an annual event ever since it was first inaugurated 11 years ago. Orphanages nationwide open their doors to the festivities for both their orphans and sponsors. It’s also a prime opportunity for orphanages to attract new sponsors, from large organizations and businesses to individuals. Aside from the PR, it’s a day when orphans don’t feel so excluded from society. the first Friday will the first of April for this year and we invite you all to celebrate that day and support the orphans.

Will move to new Cairo soon, hope there's some interesting places to go.

Hi there,

I wanted to express my interest in making such gathering events in Cairo, there are multiple nice places in Zamalek, so as interesting events, musical, artistic and fun ones.
So I want to know if there is someone who is actually responsible for making such events ? or anyone can create an event ? I know a few good events out there, many of them introducing culture of Egypt, which it is multi layered, we feel proud with our culture which has many levels and it will be very good for anyone to get introduced to such.
So if there is someone who is a lead in creating events please point me to him.

Have a nice day lads,
Peace.
