How do I meet people in Lake Garda?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Lake Garda about club and activities where newcomers can meet others, they responded...

"Expats in Lake Garda, often join local clubs and activities to meet people and immerse themselves in the local culture. These can include language exchange clubs, where they can practice their Italian with locals and help them with English or other languages. They may also join local sports clubs, such as sailing or hiking groups, which are popular due to the lake and surrounding mountains. Cooking classes are another popular activity, where expats can learn to make traditional Italian dishes and meet other food enthusiasts. Wine tasting events and vineyard tours are also common, given the region's renowned wine production. Expats may also get involved in local community events and festivals, which are frequent in Lake Garda and provide a great opportunity to meet locals and other expats. Volunteering is another way to meet people and give back to the community, with opportunities ranging from environmental conservation to helping out at local schools or charities. In addition to these activities, many expats meet people simply by being active in their local neighborhood, such as frequenting local cafes, markets, and shops. They may also meet people through their children's schools or their own work. Online platforms and social media groups for expats in Lake Garda are also a valuable resource for meeting people, finding out about local events, and getting advice on living in the area. These platforms often organize meetups and other social events, providing a welcoming community for newcomers. Finally, language schools and universities often offer courses and workshops for expats, which can be a great way to meet people and learn about Italian culture and history," wrote a member who made the move to Lake Garda, Italy.
