n8n Meetup Guide

Ideas for your meetups

Informal - you can meet in a bar, school, club or a local FabLab/Hackerspace. Have a coffee and sit down to chat about each others projects, questions etc.
Formal - you can meet at a company, school. Find some speakers to give a (short?) presentation of their use of n8n to the group. Host a Q&A session. Have a more social part afterwards.
Professional - perhaps people at your workplace are interested and you could host a lunch session where you give a demo.
Fun/active - host an n8n hackathon, or a challenge.
Online or offline? Your choice!
Ad-hoc/recurring - your meetup could be a one-off, or a regular activity.

We’ve learned that people need at least 4-5 weeks advance notice of events - especially for IRL (In Real Life) activities, so start communicating early!
Think about what you’d like your meetup to look like and find a good location to host it. Perhaps your company, school or local coffee house have a good space - reach out to them and ask if they’re okay with you hosting a small activity there.
Think about a good day of the week and a good time - what would work best for your audience?
Think about how you can reach your local n8n community and which communication channels are most suited.

As always, communication is key! Start communicating early and send relevant updates (’we have a new speaker!’) and reminders (’remember our meetup is next Thursday’).
Prepare some graphics to use on the web and social media - we recommend creating versions in HD (1920x1080px) and square formats.
Inform the n8n team when we can start promoting your event. Make sure we have enough time to send you your swag kit!

We’ll publish your meetup on our official https://lu.ma/u/n8n page. We’ll add you as the event host so you can keep track of the registrations, reach out to people etc.
Luma will send email reminders before the event. The default email reminders are sent 1 day and 1 hour before an in-person event.
