After living in Paris for five years and still struggling to find a real community abroad, Anna decided to host a Galentine’s Party in 2025, encouraging all women in Paris seeking friendship to attend.
Over one hundred women came, and that night, after many asked “will you do this again,” a bigger idea was born.
Anna and Sara had been neighbors for years, but never properly got to talking until that night at the party, when they decided there should be a monthly event for women in Paris, and together they wanted to make it happen.
Gathered Women began the next month, and it has grown into a true community here, where women of all ages can come knowing everyone is there for one reason: friendship.
A year later, each event is attended by 100-200 women. Always hosted in a local spot in Paris, and on a different date and time. The meet-up is always completely free, and no RSVP is required. These are not networking events - they are for finding friendship and community.
We keep our community up to date with event notices on Instagram and email notifications.

What to Expect
Expect smiles, kindness, respect, open hearts, and conversation.
Our monthly meet-ups were created with the sole purpose of giving women of all ages and backgrounds a place to make friends and find community in their city. Our events are ALWAYS free, no RSVP required, and open to any woman living in Paris - not just for expats!
Ages
ALL ages welcome. We have welcomed women from their 20s to their 70s.
Dates
The date changes each month, and is announced that same month. I share it on social and it is on our substack.
Time
The time is always different, but always three hours. You are welcome to come and go at any point.
Location
We are in a different location each month. This is usually a locally-owned business to help support and share our community here in Paris, or public park.
