Social events

About this Department

Social events are central to WICE's mission of creating and strengthening ties between the Anglophone and Francophone communities in Paris. We currently try to have either a lunch or apéro each month, and soon we plan to start having morning coffees, afternoon teas, and possibly a monthly WICE Salon. Our weekly in-person French/English conversation groups usually go to a nearby café after their meetings for a bit of socializing, too.

Come join us for a pleasant hour or so of mingling with your fellow WICE members.

    Tuesday In-Person French - English Conversation Group

    Looking for a relaxed and welcoming place to practice and improve your French or English? WICE conversation groups allow you to practice your language skills in an easy, convivial atmosphere with native speakers.

    Participants are divided into small groups of 5 - 6 people, and the conversations are 45 minutes in French and 45 minutes in English. The subjects are of  the group’s choosing. Though an intermediate level of English and French is expected, there is a wide range of abilities.

    There is no need to register, but if you wish to participate in person in Tuesday's group, please contact Mary-Jo at mary-jo@wice-paris.org.


    This group meets at the Maison Communale, 69 rue Violet , 75015 Paris from 15:00 - 16:30, and then typically goes to a café afterwards for a bit of socializing.

    Metro line 8 stop Commerce, and busses #42, #70, #88.
