Let’s kick off the semester together! Welcome Night is the first big gathering of our Erasmus family in Zlín.

We’ll start with a cozy welcome dinner at U13. Don't forget the little paper you got with the nametag. It's your food ticket. Durning the dinner, you’ll get the chance to write a letter to your future self – five months from now, when your Erasmus journey is coming to an end, we’ll give it back to you. It’s a fun way to reflect on what you hope to experience and to see how much you’ve grown.

Next, we’ll head over to U18, where ESNers will guide you through everything you need to know about life in Zlín. We’ll introduce the ESNcard, explain how it works, and share tips and important info to make your semester smoother.

And of course, no welcome night is complete without a party! We’ll wrap up the evening at pub Sklep.

Join us for Speedfriending! It’s like speed dating, but without the pressure – this time it’s all about making friends.

We’ll meet at 19:00 in U Máců pub, where you’ll rotate through short conversations with other students. To make things even more fun, we’ve prepared a special bingo card filled with challenges and facts to discover about each other. As you chat, you’ll check off boxes, learn funny details, and connect with people you might not have met otherwise.

By the end of the night, you’ll have a bunch of new friends, plenty of stories, and maybe even a completed bingo card. A relaxed evening, lots of laughs, and the start of friendships that could last your whole semester – don’t miss it!

Ready to discover Zlín in the most fun way possible? Tour de Zlín is not just a walk around town – it’s a challenge! Everyone will be split into random teams and sent on an adventure across the city. At each checkpoint, ESNers will be waiting with tasks for you to complete, from tricky puzzles to creative challenges.

Your mission: Finish all the tasks and reach the final destination faster than the other teams.

Along the way, you’ll get to know the city, explore its most important spots, and bond with fellow Erasmus students. Once the race is over, we’ll all gather in a cozy pub to relax, share stories, and celebrate the winners.

Tour de Zlín is the perfect way to kick off your Erasmus adventure, so don’t miss it!

Don’t miss the best way to kick off your semester—we can’t wait to meet you!

You’ll get bracelets in one of the 3 colours. Here's how it works: green means GO, you're single and ready to mingle; orange signals "it's complicated," and red says you're happily taken. And there will be another fun part, our special drink and the competition connected with it!  You’ll get more info at the place, but can you guess the price for the winner? 

Don't miss out, it's going to be a night to remember!✨

We're taking you on a trip down memory lane to an indoor playground where the fun is as wild as your younger self. Join us for games, giggles, and all-around good vibes. No grown-up stuff allowed – just pure, unfiltered joy. Let's play, laugh, and relive the awesome moments of being a kid. See you there for a throwback to the best days ever!
