Escaping Flatland

How can we rejuvenate the social fabric? How not to forget what matters Meetups in July and August 2026: call for organizers Notes on Bakhtin Love is to be invested in someone’s continual expansion The world reveals itself to those who travel by foot Thoughts about making a career as a writer How to walk through walls Days are enormous Differently free Some relationships deepen when you tell the truth and some end Getting a better sense for when you’re thinking well and when you’re faking it On the compulsion to make art Things that connect us to ourselves, and things that don't On political power On the preparations before writing an essay Being creative requires taking risks Reflections on my first year writing full time Just and loving seeing When I accept myself just as I am, I change A list of books and essays that I love When is better to think without words?

Escaping Flatland meetups summer 2026: times and places
Henrik Karlsson · 2026-06-25 · via Escaping Flatland

There has been a flurry of activity in the chat over the last two months, and we now have meetups arranged in 46 cities in 22 countries! A big thank you to everyone who has stepped forward to organize in their cities.

If you’re reading this, you’re invited. You are welcome even if you have just started reading the blog, if you think you might not fit in, and if you have never been to a meetup before. This is the first time we’re doing this, so everyone will be new to it. The people who went to the first two meetups, in Copenhagen and NYC, seem to have had a good time (and they are planning more meetups, see below).

In this post you can check if there is an event planned where you live. I’ve sorted the events in alphabetical order—

  1. Asia-Pacific (including Australia)

  2. Europe (including UK)

  3. North America

—and within each region I’ve alphabetized first by country/state, then by city.

There are events in these countries: Australia, Canada, China, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Netherlands, Norway, Pakistan, Singapore, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Taiwan, United Kingdom, United States, and Vietnam.

I’ll attend the London meetup on July 18.

The organizers have created a Luma event for each city, where you can sign up (RSVP) with one click. I very much appreciate it if people do this. The people who are hosting are taking a day out of their lives to do something fun for strangers, so it is nice if we let them know how many will show up. Also, if you can’t make it, remember to cancel :)

Additional information for meetup organizers:

  1. If you’re the host, make sure you are easy to spot, for example, by bringing a sign that says “ESCAPING FLATLAND MEETUP” or “EF MEETUP.”

  2. It can be useful to bring blank labels and pens for nametags.

  3. If you’re having trouble thinking of something to talk about, most people will have in common that they have read some posts on Escaping Flatland, so—hopefully you’ll have more exciting things to talk about—but you can always open by asking people about their favorite post and going from there.

  4. Since this is a first meetup, people are probably just going to want to talk, so there is no need to plan a lot of structured activities.

  5. At both meetups we’ve had so far, some of the attendees have felt like meeting up again. I highly recommend checking if that is the case and creating (for example) a WhatsApp group to coordinate future meetups and other things that might be fun to share or do together in your local community. (I will probably do a post like this once a year; if you want to meet more often, you’ll need your own chat or email list of some kind.)

  6. I’ve heard it’s easier to schedule a follow-up meetup while you’re having the first, compared to trying to do it later on by email.
