Hi Folks,
Many have asked for more meetups around the globe, and September is going to be the start of that. We crunched the numbers and figured out the 9 most popular cities for Designer News in North America. We'd like to encourage more people to host their own as well, which is why we've put together a calendar page.
We're still solidifying the last few venues. If you have ideas or suggestions for a good place in your town, please let us know.
See you there!

How are you guys doing with finding a venue in Toronto? I'd be happy to look into seeing if 500px could host it.
Drop me an email and let's go from there: kelly@layervault.com
Thanks!

Hi Kelly, you mentioned people hosting their own. How do I go about doing that?

I've been thinking about organizing an Austin meetup for a while now. Who's down?
Kyle Conrad, 9 years ago
:( sadface for DC
Peter Nellius, 9 years ago I'd be into helping out if someone has space to self-host a DC Meetup :)
Feel free to organize a DC one. Let me know the time/date and I'll add it to the big board. Who knows? I might take the train down and attend myself.
Zach Reed, 9 years ago
Chicago! yes! Can't wait.

Hooray Toronto! Thanks for doing this!
Giulio Michelon, 9 years ago
No Europe and obviously no Italy: I feel like a third world country sometimes.
One day :)
It looks like I need to come back to Silicon Valley if I want to meet you again haha
Brendan Luu, 9 years ago
Washington DC!
Micah Sivitz, 9 years ago
We would love to host the NYC meetup at our event space in Brooklyn! If that's of interest to you, you can reach me at micah@livestream.com
Noah Buscher, 9 years ago
I wish there were more designers from the Lincoln, Omaha, Des Moines "metro" area to make an event possible.
Anyone from Silicon Prairie?
Nick Pfisterer, 9 years ago
Yay, Portland! You can count on me being there. :)
Maurice Cherry, 9 years ago
I'd definitely attend one in Atlanta (or Dallas or Austin since I'll be there in September).
Nick Morrison, 9 years ago
I would love to attend one in Atlanta. If anyone wants to work to have one set up I would be interested.
Ryan LeFevre, 9 years ago
Atlanta is a bit of a drive, but it's the closest to Charleston for me. I would probably try and make it.
Victor L, 9 years ago (edited 9 years ago )
Would love to see one in Philadelphia! I know a few venues that will likely be willing to host a meetup. :D
Pasquale D'Silva, 9 years ago
I'll come to a new york one.
Asher Simonds, 9 years ago
WOO Seattle! Super pumped to HIRL with some creative folks.
Helen Tran, 9 years ago
Hey, is there a way to RSVP outside of Facebook?
There is not. We realize not everyone Facebooks these days. Just put it on your calendar and show up!
Oz Chen, 9 years ago
I can help with the Los Angeles meetup (venue, organizations).
Joel Califa, 9 years ago
Down for NYC
Chris De La Fuente, 9 years ago
FUCK YEAH SEATTLE!
Google in Fremont always lets people use their space for events!
Varun Vachhar, 9 years ago
Will there be meetup.com pages for these events?
We've tried Meetup.com pages, but they didn't work out so well. We've had the most success with Facebook pages, even though not everyone uses Facebook.
So, how do we sign up for the meetups? Or is it just first come first served?
They are pretty casual and held at bars with plenty of capacity. It shouldn't be a problem!
Let's do one somewhere in the Silicon Valley as well (Google, Yahoo, Intuit, all those companies are here.)
Possibly Palo Alto, Mountain View, Cupertino, San Jose, Santa Clara?
Evan Knight, 9 years ago
If you still need a venue for Chicago I can see if GrubHub will host. Regardless, I can't wait!
Matt Sisto, 9 years ago
Awesome. Would love to help out with the Boston event if you need any!
Bardan Gauchan, 9 years ago Vancity!
Julian Lloyd, 9 years ago
Very cool. I’ll certainly be in attendance @ Los Angeles meetup.
Jeremy Roux, 9 years ago
We need one in Montreal!
