What are Sojoourn events?

Sojoourn events are one-of-a-kind activities/workshops designed and hosted by locals or international professionals. Unlike a typical tour or activity, experiences offer by Sojoourn go beyond the activities themselves. Hosts and speakers offer you specialized knowledge, unique skills, and access to an international network, creating lasting connections and a sharing of experiences. Discover our tribe leaders.
​
What makes Sojoourn events unique is that it's organized in a different place in the city, making you discover more exciting places in Lyon all while meeting more people!

We hold Sojoourn events & meetups in Lyon. Never miss an event by liking our page on Facebook & RSVP-ing to upcoming events here!

We are carefully readjusting to a new normal with a mixture of online and real-life events. In most cases the number of participants are limited to respect governmental restrictions and face covering is mandatory. We are constantly looking for new ideas to bring the community together and help you connect with like-minded expats. Scroll down to see all of our upcoming events.
