Rights quiz «In the skin of a citizen», Hôtel Ragueneau, Bordeaux
Hôtel Ragueneau
Try your knowledge in a completely new way. In this workshop run by Amnesty International during Bordeaux's Quinzaine de l'Égalité, you play through the real administrative and civic questionnaire that migrants face when applying for a residence permit or French nationality: history, republican values, general knowledge, rights and duties. Far from a solemn exam, it is an interactive, friendly workshop that invites empathy and reflection, and you can take on the challenge alone, with family or with friends. Saturday afternoon at the Hôtel Ragueneau, in central Bordeaux; entry is free, and no booking is mentioned. Expect two hours of conversation, small surprises and a better sense of what newcomers go through. «Le Quiz des Droits: dans la peau d'un citoyen» Starts 15:00, ends about 17:00.

Free general knowledge quiz at Poney Fringant, Bordeaux
Poney Fringant
On Wednesday 25 November 2026 at 19:00 the Poney Fringant in Bordeaux welcomes back its general knowledge quiz, run together with the Maison des Jeux. The organisers promise a mix of general culture, surprise questions and good humour, and the listing invites anyone who thinks they know their stuff to come and prove it. Entry is listed as free. No format is described, so whether you play in teams or alone is something to check with the venue, but a pub quiz is one of the simplest ways to meet people on your own: teams are usually happy to take a lone player, and the questions give everyone something to talk about. The evening runs for about three hours, so you can arrive a little after the start and still join in. Prices of food and drinks are not listed. «Le Quiz Culture G revient au Poney Fringant avec la Maison des Jeux ! Culture générale, questions surprises et bonne humeur au programme.» Starts 19:00, ends about 22:00. Source: OpenAgenda — Ville de Bordeaux (open data).

Art Deco walk through the Lescure quarter, Bordeaux
Place Johnston (Lescure)
On Saturday 28 November 2026 at 10:00 a guided urban walk leaves from the Place Johnston in the Lescure quarter of Bordeaux, led by Francis Baudy. The listing says it shows the too little known riches of the city's Art Deco architectural heritage. The group wanders around the Stade Chaban-Delmas and can appreciate remarkable administrative buildings and private villas. The walk runs from 10:00 to 12:00 on a Saturday morning. Entry is free, with registration, and the listing says residents of the Tauzin quarter have priority for this activity, so places for others depend on what is left. A guided walk is easy to join alone, since a small group walks and talks together. «Balade urbaine guidée par Francis Baudy pour découvrir les richesses trop mal connues du patrimoine architectural style Arts-Décos de Bordeaux.» Starts 10:00, ends about 12:00.

Host a game night
No table near you? Set one up in a minute.
Create a free invite (pick the Game night template), share the link, and the people who say yes bring the snacks. This is the whole host kit:
- A public table — a café, a bar's back room or a library room beats your living room for strangers.
- Two or three short games that take one minute to explain; save the four-hour epic for later.
- Cap it at 4–8 players per table and say so in the invite.
- Beginners welcome, in writing — it is the line that gets newcomers to say yes.
- Fixed end time, two to three hours, so leaving is easy and coming back next time is too.
