MIDWEEK MINGLE

A Space to Connect, Chat, and Unwind

Making friends in your twenties can feel surprisingly difficult. Whether you’re new to the area, looking to expand your circle, or just want a fun midweek social event, Midweek Mingle is here to bring like-minded women together in a relaxed and welcoming space.

We meet every  Wednesday at 7 PM at the Viento Lounge, (Daventry, Northamptonshire) where you’ll find good drinks, great conversation, and a community that genuinely wants to connect with you <3.

Who Am I?

I’m in my twenties, and I work in marketing. In my spare time, you’ll often find me sewing, throwing some pottery, or with my guitar.

I started Midweek Mingle because I know first hand how tough it can be to make friends as an adult. Between work, routines, and life changes, it’s easy to feel isolated.

I’d love to get to know you better, so feel free to come say hi at the next Mingle – I’ll be right at the front, ready to welcome you!

Midweek Mingle: How I’m Finding Connection in My Twenties

Making friends in your twenties is hard. And it’s not something that school or, really, any part of your childhood prepares you for. If you’re working a remote job, or maybe didn’t go to university, making adult friends can be really challenging. And we’ve all been...

Like so many others, I realised that making new friends as an adult isn’t as simple as it once was. Gone are the days of effortlessly meeting people in school or university – life gets busier, routines become set, and suddenly, expanding your social circle feels like a challenge.

Midweek Mingle was born from the idea that friendships shouldn’t be difficult to find. I wanted to create a space where women in their twenties could meet without pressure, awkward small talk, or the expectation of already knowing someone there. Whether you come alone or bring a friend, you’ll always be welcome.
