Friday at the Table is a relaxed weekly gathering for expats, travellers, digital nomads and localites who want to meet new people in Delhi without walking into a formal networking event.

We meet in Aerocity, settle around one table and let the evening develop through easy conversation. Some guests have just arrived in Delhi. Others have lived here for years. Some are between journeys, while others simply want to spend Friday with people outside their usual circle.

There are no presentations, name tags or forced activities. Come on your own, order what you like and join the conversation when you feel comfortable.

What happens around the table

The evening begins with informal introductions. You can share your name, where you are from or what brought you to Delhi, but there is no pressure to deliver a polished introduction.

From there, the conversation takes its own direction. People often talk about travel, adjusting to Delhi, places worth exploring, work, food, culture and the small discoveries that make a city easier to understand.

You might meet a new resident learning how Delhi works, a traveller planning the next part of an India trip or a localite with practical recommendations that do not appear in guidebooks. The mix changes every week, which keeps the table interesting.

A loose plan for the evening

Relaxed introductions

We take the first part of the evening to settle in, order individually and say hello. There are no forced networking exercises.

Conversations around the table

Most of the meetup is left open for conversation. Share experiences, ask questions or listen until you find a thread you want to join.

Local lifestyle and travel insights

The table is a useful place to exchange honest perspectives on living in Delhi, exploring nearby destinations and finding everyday experiences beyond the usual recommendations.

Close the evening

Exchange recommendations or contact details if you wish, then end the evening with good memories. Depending on the group, schedule and venue availability, some guests may continue to another nearby place. Ask the host on the day; any later plan is optional and separate from the meetup.

Directions to WorldMark 3, Aerocity

Use WorldMark 3, Aerocity, New Delhi 110037 as your destination in your maps or cab app. Open WorldMark 3 in Google Maps.

By metro

Take the Airport Express Line to Delhi Aerocity metro station. WorldMark 3 is around 300 metres from the station, so it is normally a short walk through the Aerocity district.

Once you arrive, check the meeting-point message sent to confirmed guests. WorldMark contains several buildings and entrances, so the final note will help you find the correct part of the complex without wandering around.

By cab or auto

Search for the full destination WorldMark 3, Aerocity and confirm that your map shows New Delhi 110037. If the driver asks for a landmark, say WorldMark in the Aerocity hospitality district near Delhi Aerocity metro station.

Traffic near the airport can change quickly on Friday evenings. Leave a little extra time and follow the live route in your preferred maps app.

Coming from the airport

From Terminal 3, you can use the Airport Express Line or take a cab directly to WorldMark 3. From other terminals, check the quickest live route before leaving because terminal transfers and road conditions vary.

Before you join

  • Book only if you genuinely plan to attend; table space is limited.
  • Cancel your booking if your plans change so the place can go to someone else.
  • Pay for your own food and drinks directly at the venue.
  • Keep the evening free from marketing, pitching and unwanted promotion.
  • Tell the host if you have an allergy or prefer not to appear in photographs.

Come solo, leave with new stories

You do not need to know anyone before you arrive. Most people come because they want exactly the same thing: an easy way to meet someone new without the pressure of a formal social event.

One conversation might give you a better understanding of Delhi. Another might lead to a restaurant recommendation, a weekend plan or a friendship that continues long after Friday.

The table changes every week, but the invitation stays the same: take a seat, say hello and bring whatever story you have.
