What we’re about
Welcome to International Singles in Brussels!
This is a group for people who would like to find new relationships and make new
friends in one of the most vibrant cities! Brussels is a gorgeous city and full of wonderful people. It is however difficult to meet the right ones if one is working very hard and not getting out enough. Would it not be wonderful to meet other people regularly at meetups over drinks, dinner, dance and music? This is a group for discerning people who would like to meet like minded people for conversations, connections, friendships and maybe more!

Here you can see everyone from different cultures and races meeting and having a great time and this is what we tend to achieve everytime we host!
Here is how we will do things differently -
Ever since covid has occurred the world has changed ways in how we function and operate. Meeting people of various cultures has become difficult with various restrictions and with online events people rarely have the opportunity of meeting face to face and this results in not getting the right opportunity to meet in person.
We will always have hosts at all our events. You will always be greeted by someone
at all our events and introduced to others. (Warm & welcoming hosts to help you
mingle!)
Click on the link to know 6 key reasons why you should attend our meetups!
We will minimize no shows by requiring attendees to pay a deposit in advance. No
shows are misleading and not fun for organizers nor for members.
We will not disguise organization costs in opaque ticket prices, commissions from
bars or inflated set menu prices.
We will instead ask for a small charge to help us manage the group and its activities. (Very transparent)
We will strive to attract a high quality membership who prefer higher quality
venues and events. We will not be driven by happy hours, free food etc (as all
of these are eventually balanced out by much higher prices later)
We will constantly request members to help us host events and take a lead on
activities so that we have energy and variety.

Looking to expand your social circle and make new friends with people who truly get where you’re at in life? Join us for an evening where you’ll meet others with similar experiences, goals, and interests!
We understand that between career, family, and personal commitments, making new friends isn’t as easy as it used to be! But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible! This event offers the perfect chance to connect with like-minded ladies & gents between the ages of 35 to 50, just like you, who are looking for deeper connections and meaningful friendships.
'Fast friending' is our fun and quick way to help you make new connections quickly with both ladies and gentlemen. These are people in the age group of 35 and 50 and so you will be on a similar wavelength. Naturally you can always choose who to speak with based on your preference!

Ever been to a social event and realized that no one there is your age? You’re surrounded by people, but they just don’t get where you’re coming from. You’re looking for conversations with people in your own stage of life—those who are juggling careers, passions, and finding their way through the same challenges and excitement you face.
We know that feeling, and that's exactly why we have planned this Fast Friending social for the 20-35 age group. Imagine a space filled with people who understand each other. You’ll meet people in your age range who share similar experiences and perspectives. Whether you’re talking about your latest travels, career moves, or navigating the ups and downs of adulthood, you’ll be in the company of those who can relate.
'Fast friending' is our fun and quick way to help you make new connections quickly with both ladies and gentlemen. These are people in the age group of 20 and 35 and so you will be on a similar wavelength. Naturally you can always choose who to speak with based on your preference!
