What we’re about

Come join America's largest LGBTQ+ Meetup!

The "Non-Scene" Friends is a place for the LGBTQ+ community to hang out, make friends, explore the area, and have fun doing a wide variety of activities typically separate from the gay bar "scene." We hold events in Southeastern New England, primarily in Boston, but also Worcester and Providence, as well as their various suburbs. We'd love for you to join the group and introduce yourself! We are welcome people of all ages(18+), genders, and sexual orientations. Transgender people are encouraged to join!

We have primarily in-person meetups. Meetups include:

  • Eating Out
  • Standup/Improv
  • Escape Rooms
  • Board Games
  • Movies
  • Strawberry Picking
  • Hiking
  • Laser Tag
  • Ice Cream
  • And more

Ways you can help: If there is an event you'd like to see, talk to an organizer to try in make it happen! Even better, join the group as an event host. If you'd like to pitch in to keep the group going you can do so here.
