Discuss death, free of agenda or ideology, with a friendly group.

No late admittance: entry is closed at 6:10pm.

This event is intended for ages 16+

Death Cafés are a growing international movement of people gathering together in a relaxed and safe setting to eat tasty treats, drink tea, and discuss death. Free of agenda or ideology, the aim is to increase awareness of death to help people make the most of their (finite) lives. Not a grief support group, it is no more and no less than a friendly group discussing death. Learn more at https://deathcafe.com/what/.
