Are there any activities or groups in the downtown core to meet new people (especially other women)? I moved back to Edmonton in 2022, from the East Coast ( I first moved here back in 2012 but left for school) and honestly, I haven’t made any real friends yet. Life feels a bit lonely apart from work and the occasional mall trip. I mostly just stay home and feel like a grandma, lol.

I’ve noticed that a lot of people here seem to have their own established circles, and the city can feel quite spread out and segmented. I also get the sense that many Edmontonians tend to stick within their own communities or friend groups, which makes it harder to connect as someone new to the city.

I’ve tried joining my neighbourhood community league, but people didn’t seem very open or welcoming to newcomers. So if anyone has any leads, events, or activities where it’s easier to meet new and open-minded folks, I’d really appreciate it!

Thanks
