Atlanta French Language November Meetup

We’re the largest regular French gathering in Atlanta — and, we hope, the friendliest. We meet on the 3rd Monday of the month at Après Diem in Midtown unless otherwise noted.

Since COVID, Après Diem does not have adequate staff to take individual drink orders, but they will provide one drink for a flat price of $9.00 from a select list of beers and wines (or, if you prefer, coffee or a soft drink). The $9.00 also covers the tax and tip. Food orders, or additional drinks, will be handled individually as before, and can be paid by cash or credit card.

Combined with the standard $1.00 fee for each meetup, that means entering the meetup will require paying $10.00 — CASH ONLY. (No Zelle, no Cash App.)

Anyone arriving without adequate cash can use the ATM located at the bar on the second floor above Après Diem.

We usually have 30–40 people attend: about 25% native French speakers (from France, Canada, Belgium, Switzerland, Haiti, Tunisia, Lebanon, Algeria, Morocco, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Niger, Mauritius, etc.), and about 50% fluent or proficient non-native French speakers. Beginners are welcome, and we usually have 10–20 new people at each meetup. This is just a social gathering. There is no formal structure.

Please sign in when you arrive, and note your country of origin. Those details are not shared with anyone after the meetup, only a total count (by country) of people who attended.
