Meet other creatives in Helsinki for lunch

With its forward-thinking design culture and thriving arts scene, Helsinki inspires collaboration and fresh ideas. Our members in Helsinki include Designers, Writers, Photographers, and Creative Directors, all contributing to the city’s modern and ever-evolving creative landscape.
Join Creative Lunch Club
Creative Lunch Club has been an invaluable part of my creative journey in Helsinki and beyond. Alongside introducing me to incredible people, the conversations and moments shared through the network have given me fresh perspectives, much-needed respites, lasting friendships, and the encouragement to persist through the hurdles of freelancing!

The Idea
Meeting other creative and inspiring people is one of the best things about working in the creative industries. But networking events are boring. Wouldn't it be much nicer to meet other creatives over lunch?
This is where the Creative Lunch Club comes in. We bring creative people together to have lunch together.
I love Creative Lunch Club because it harnesses the most human way of connecting, sharing a meal. It's an effortless way for creatives to build diverse connections and friendships across various fields and meet people they wouldn't otherwise.

How it works
Join the Club, and we will connect you with two other creatives from your city once a month. Together you set a time and a place and have lunch.
There are no rules for lunch. Talk about your work, projects, what inspires you, and what you enjoy.
The Creative Lunch Club has been a fantastic way to connect with like-minded creatives in Budapest. As a photographer, working alone can feel isolating, so meeting new people has been refreshing. Some have offered valuable advice, and others have become collaborators, making this experience truly rewarding.

Meetups
Besides our matching system, we also host meetups in larger groups. These have a fixed date, time, and location, and create space to meet even more creatives, share ideas, and connect beyond your usual circle.
As a Creative Lunch Club member, you can join these meetups for free and be part of the wider community coming together around a shared table.
One of the best things I've done since moving to Stockholm has been joining the Creative Lunch Club, a community I first discovered back in Australia and was so happy to find here too! These catchups have been such a great way to connect with other creatives, share stories and experiences, and feel part of the design community here. I've met some incredibly talented and kind people through these catch-ups, and it's helped me explore more of Stockholm too!

I had my first Creative Lunch Club match on October of this year, and I have met pretty great people since then. Not only creatives, which is the reason why I joined: to connect with other creatives and share what I do as well, but I have met really nice people from all over the world here in Paris. Listening to other people's stories and experiences has been lovely because it also helps you connect and establish friendships (and have great food as well!).

When I joined Creative Lunch Club, I didn't expect to connect with people who live in the same neighbourhood as me. It's pretty cool to build a community of creatives in your vicinity, especially because it's easier to nurture those connections when you live in a big city. I love it.
