About Event

Join The Offline Club at the cozy Elixer for our first ever Offline Writing Party ✍️.

📵 Lock your phone away and enjoy a relaxed morning free of digital distractions. Whether you're a best-selling author, poet-in-the-making, or just love to journal, this screen-free writing party is yours to unwind from the daily buzz, find your flow, and meet-like minded people. Journal your thoughts, put stories to paper, write a letter, pick up your abandoned poetry bundle, sketch out new ideas, or engage in any other personal writing project.

It’s like a little escape into a different world where time slows down, people are open to connect, and you can truly focus on yourself. More info on what to expect below 👇🏽.


What to expect: 
✍️ Peaceful (me-)time to enjoy your personal writing project
🤝 Meet and connect with like-minded others + an (optional) guided activity to mingle. No rush, no pressure, no notifications.
❤️ Community vibes, calming background music, and a homey atmosphere - so connection feels easy.
📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled
☕ Delicious coffee, drinks, and freshly baked croissants are available for purchase on location.

*Elixer is kindly hosting us to support our mission, so let’s return the love - your own drinks and snacks may stay home, and purchase of one consumption is required. More than just a restaurant, Elixer is a (cozy) community-driven space with a focus on promoting ideas around sustainability and social-inclusivity.


The Program, curated by our community hosts:
10:00 - 10:30 | Arrive & get cozy
10:30 - 11:30 | Write, journal & sketch in shared silence
11:30 - 12:45 | Connect with others + optional social activity
12:45 - 13:00 | Round-up and goodbye

👉🏼 Write, journal & sketch in silence
This is your time to sit back and enjoy uninterrupted writing time in shared silence, with a backdrop of calming tunes. Slow down and recharge by journaling your thoughts, sketching out new ideas, exploring your inner poet, work through that troubling script, or enjoying focused time to make progress on your creative writing project. 🤔 Not sure where to start? We'll have journaling & writing prompts for inspiration and new ideas.

Since this is a screen-free event, no laptops/iPads please, just notebooks/printed material.

👉🏼 Connect with others
Chat & connect with others, but only if you feel like it. This is the time to meet new people, connect over your writing projects & have meaningful conversations. Our community hosts will guide you through one (optional) social activity designed for you to mingle and meet a variety of like-minded people. The Offline Club is like a laid-back communal living room where talking to strangers is the norm and connection feels easy. Feel free to come solo, or with friends.

What to bring
​Bring your journal, notebook, favorite stationery, poetry bundle & writing supplies... whatever inspires you to write. Don't worry if you don't have your own supplies - we'll provide paper and pens on-site.


We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.

Love, The Offline Club ❤️

📵 About your phone:
Your phone will rest in our phone hotel, and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible. In case you’re not quite ready to let it go, no worries - feel free to turn it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight!

💰Refunds?
Sorry, no take-backs. But! If you cancel at least 48 hours before the event, you can request a €14.50 voucher to use toward a future event.
