What weāre about
Welcome to SD SOCIABLES, a longstanding meetup group in the San Diego meetup community!
As one of the originals, our group embraces both singles and couples, creating a warm and inviting space where social connections thrive. More than just a meetup, SD Sociables provide opportunties where lifelong friendships are forged and enduring memories are made. We are a social group, not a dating group.
We encourage our members to keep their RSVPs up to date and to treat each other with politeness, friendliness, and kindness. Curated by our dedicated hosts, our events range from lively dances, happy hours, plays, holiday celebrations and shows to outdoor activities like hikes, walks, and even pickleball. The possibilities are as diverse as our members' imaginations.
Participation is not only encouraged but celebrated, and we extend an invitation for members to host events if they choose. Stay connected by checking the calendar regularly and keeping an eye on messages from our hosts. In our ongoing commitment to enhance your experience, SD Sociables continually strives, with the input from their members, to elevate the quality of our events, ensuring a more enriching and enjoyable time for all.
Join us in creating lasting connections and unforgettable moments!
