Hey. So I know there is no Gent board here but we will see how may come across it. I am wanting to start up a weekly meet up in Gent starting week of the 25th of July. So far the idea is to start with the first week a coffee meet on Saturday 23rd starting around 1.30 to 2 and then the next week with be a Thurdays 4th of Aug for drinks around 7ish. I know I have posted this very early to see how much interested we can get. Also it gives us time to play around with dates a bit and place suggestions. Regards and hope to see you there Hannah

Hello! I recently moved to Ghent with my boyfriend

And yes i've noticed there's lots of meet ups for Brussels mainly, and a few other cities, but no Ghent. So this sounds like a good idea

So I'm in!

Hello! Unfortunately I don't know many places in Ghent, but I've seen many nice terraces downtown Do you live very far from there?

If no one comes up with suggestions, I can ask my bf About the dates! Hmmm..! I'm not quite sure, but I think during that time there will be the Ghent festivities? And I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing..! I mean like.. maybe there will be no place to sit ?

So.. I didn't help at all hehe.. sorry But next time I go downtown I'll check for places.
