Who Are We
We’re Connect20s — a growing community for people aged 20 to 35 who are looking to make real connections in real life.
Whether you’ve just moved cities, feel like your circle’s shifted, or just want to meet new people without the awkward small talk — you’re welcome here. We host monthly events that bring people together through shared experiences, from laid-back hangs to fun city adventures. It’s about making friends, trying new things, and feeling more at home in your own city.
This isn’t just a social club. It’s your go-to community for connection, growth, and good times.
The best friendships are created through shared experiences
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: to build a community that actually feels like one.
We want you to come to our events alone — and leave feeling like you’ve found your people. We’re creating a space where friendships form naturally, where showing up as you are is enough, and where belonging doesn’t need to be earned.
Because at the end of the day, community isn’t just a nice-to-have. It’s the whole point of life.
Our Ultra Pre-Party group traveled together to the Ultra festival and really enjoyed every bit of it.
Connect20s teamed up with Venturo for The Hiking Games, strategising and teamwork were the key takeaways.

Impact
We’re still growing — but even in this early stage, Connect20s has already made a difference in real, small ways that matter.
People have come to our events not knowing anyone and left with new friends. Some have said it was their first time going to something alone — and they didn’t regret it. Others have found a reason to get out of the house, to try something new, to feel a little more like themselves again.
We’re creating moments that feel good. That feel needed. And we know that’s something.
Ambika's Testimonial
Since joining Connect20s, I’ve gained so much more confidence—in myself and in life. I’ve made amazing new friends and gone on fun, exciting adventures with them. Connect20s is a community where I can truly relate to everyone—a place where I feel heard and understood. I’m incredibly grateful for the Connect20s community
Keabetswe's Testimonial
Connect20s is exactly what I needed in my hectic early twenties life. It’s a fun, relaxed space where you can meet new people you can relate to and have real conversations. The vibe is chill, and everyone is friendly and awesome. Every time I go to a Connect20s event, I leave feeling more connected and uplifted
