About this event
This “**Lisbon Newcomers Welcome Club**” Xmas gathering is for people who are new to Lisbon or want to welcome them, and increase their number of connections. The first meetup was held November 2021 and since we have welcomed 1050+ people to these events.
This event will have live secular Christmas sing-a-long with the amazing William Carbone on the keyboards.
Singing in groups in one of the oldest ways of bringing people together, going back many thousands of years.
We are doing a secular Xmas Sing along for people of any religion, or none.
**Our values are simple “We welcome all who welcome all”**
You don’t have to be good at singing.
