One of the best things to do when you're couchsurfing in Lyon, is to meet the very active Lyon's CS community. For this, we usually have several "traditional" meetings planned:

====The Monday Meeting at The Antidote Pub ====
Every monday , the Lyon couchsurfing people meet at The Antidote Pub, 108 Rue Saint Georges ( Metro stop Vieux Lyon ). The Antidote has became one of our local headquarters. Bartenders are great and beers is good 
We start our meetings every monday around 8:30 pm with some of our new couchsurfers to have happy hour.

==== The Newbies Apero ====
Every month we organise an apero for new members at someone place. Everybody bring something to eat or drink. This is a perfect occasion to be introduced in the community and meet volonteers and other members. Volonteers can help to use the website and give informations. Also a good meaning to share experiences. Just look at the Lyon Group to know when the next Newbie Apero will happen.

====The Festival of Lights ==== 

This is the biggest event in Lyon and one of the biggest in Europe. Each year in December The Lyon community host more than 300 surfers from everywhere. During four days the city is illuminated in an artistic way . The most popular party of the city. Do not miss ! [http://www.couchsurfing.org/meetings.html?mid=85054 Festibal of Light 2010]
