Späti Stories x The Next Day Berlin - Book Swap Picnic #1
Looking for a book that could change your life? Or a cozy meetup to connect with fellow bookworms? We've got you covered.
📆Tuesday, July 22nd, 6pm at Körnerpark, Neukölln
We'll get a spot in the park close to the Orangerie
Späti Stories and The Next Day Berlin are partnering for a book swap picnic this summer—and we promise it will be inspiring, comfortable, and easy-going.
How it works:
Everyone brings a meaningful book
When you arrive, you'll write a dedication for the next person who'll have it
We'll create a circle with all the books, and each person gets to choose a new one (like Secret Santa!)
After that, you can swap again with other participants or connect with the person whose book you chose
To participate:
Grab a free ticket (we need to know how many people to plan for)
Bring a meaningful book—this is mandatory, and please don't bring something you just want to get rid of. Bring something that means a lot to you
Bring your own drinks and a blanket
Optional: bring snacks to share (we'll have some easy snacks for everyone, but feel free to contribute!)
Important: If you can't attend, please cancel at least a day before. Commitment matters—we plan to host similar events regularly, and if you don't show up without canceling, you might be blocked from future events.
We're really looking forward to meeting you in person and discussing many different inspiring stories together.
Cheers
Isabelle, Lua and Lalai
