About the Society

Built so nobody has to do this city alone.

Our story

African Society started with a simple problem: Barcelona is full of us, and somehow we were all still eating dinner alone.

What began as a few friends linking up has grown into a community of 1,300+ people — connected on WhatsApp, gathered at events, and building something people can return to. We host nights out, wellness mornings, film screenings and cultural celebrations, and we’re just getting started.

What we stand for

Belonging

Everyone should have a room in this city where they feel expected.

Culture

We celebrate where we come from and what we create here.

Reciprocity

The community works because people give as much as they take.

Openness

Africans and allies — if you come with good energy, you’re welcome.

The door is open.
