The Shanghai Expat Wednesday Night Mixer is held EVERY week for Expats and their friends who are looking to meet new friends and old, away from the typical bar scene.
The Event started back in 2004.

Here are the details:

The venues keep changing but the fun stays the same.

So come on out to join us at ShanghaiExpat's Wedneday Night Mixers! And bring your friends!

Check the mixer page as we will go on the road and periodically change the venue.
See you all there!

The original announcemnet was getting a bit harder for new people to see the vital info so this new thread has been started for that. Obviously, as before, questions and discussions about the event are welcome here.

is it only for expats or can local people come, too ? where is it ? will i meet friends there or shall i not come alone ?

yeah, like questions like that.

Oh, you mean you actually wanted answers to those frequently asked questions?

The event is held as an opportunity to allows expats and their friends to come out and enjoy meeting up wioth old friends and making new friends. It is NOT meant to be a place for business solicitations, language learning/practice etc. ShanghaiExpat is a predominantly Expatriate based membership, but there are local mambers who contribute to the communuity and so fo course they are welcome as well.

I beleive the first thread ALSO lists the location on the poster and the bottom of the post. this info will be repeated however regularly on the pages to follw to make it easier to find.

Come alone or come with friends. The point of a mixer is to allow peoplethe chance to meet up with others. Most expats are "mildly displaced" people and so we tend to be pretty easy to meet. So make the effort and come on out. Meet some people or if you find that challenging, come find one of the hosts and they will get you started.



We have run into occassions where people have come for the wrong reasons. If that is the case, as it is a privately held event, we do reserve the right not to welcome anyone that has an agenda not condusive to the spirit of this event.

I am excited - tonight will be my virgin voyage in the sea of bars in Shanghai: I kid you not! The first time I will have been to a bar over here.

it'll be okay sweetie, we'll share a cig and i'll make you breakfast afterward.

thanks, you are such a darling

maybe i will stop in and visit!

I might come around on the 9th and 10th

lol, I was snuggled up in my little corner - I didn't stay for long because I had to attend to the 'wife' at home... A bit gutted really, but... the good news is I will come again, stay longer, and introduce myself!

It is my birthday today, so at midnight after I got home, there was a very nice surprise waiting for me

- 3rd edit If I made myself more known on this occasion, I know it would have ended in tears (and vomit)... I am so sorry Hobo... was looking forward to the cigars

Magnolia, I am so happy to finally meet you! Hope I will have chance to see you again soon!!

I took a few pics, as I have done before, but a but busy ... here are a few of them:
