New in Lyon, or simply looking for new people? With S'Up you can spontaneously find friends, events and connection in Lyon — from game nights to sports to the semester party. No dating, just real meetups.
Lyon ist mit rund 520.000 Einwohnern Frankreichs drittgrößte Stadt und nach Paris die zweitwichtigste Studierendenstadt des Landes mit etwa 160.000 Studierenden. Das bohemienhafte La Croix-Rousse, das studentische Viertel La Guillotière und die zur Fußgängerzone umgebauten Berges du Rhône mit ihren Bar-Péniches prägen das Ausgehleben. Wer hier studiert, denkt an Electro-Nächte im Sucre über der Confluence, Apéros auf den Rhône-Quais und das Festival Nuits Sonores im Mai.
