As attendance grows, there\u2019s less opportunity to talk to everyone you know, or would like to know better, in between sessions and workshops or even songs and dancing at the After Party. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Warm-up events and activities provide a wonderful way for smaller groups of people to spend time together, allowing you to make new connections or make new memories with existing friends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year they\u2019re set to take place on Wednesday 19 June 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">WCEU warm-up events<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"754\" src=\"https:\/\/2019.europe.wordcamp.org\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti-1024x754.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-8503\" srcset=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti-1024x754.png 1024w, https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti-300x221.png 300w, https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti-768x566.png 768w, https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti-407x300.png 407w, https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2019\/files\/2019\/04\/berlin-graffiti.png 1230w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a lot of first-timers to Berlin who are arriving early to explore, as well as locals who know the city well.
