H4ES

Hannover4EnglishSpeakers

Hannover4EnglishSpeakers (or H4ES for short) is a group of English-language ex-patriates and other English speakers who get together regularly in Hannover to chat and meet new people. Our members come from all over the world — Americans, British, Canadians, Irish, Australians, Indians, and many other nationalities besides.

Regular meetings

The main monthly H4ES meetings are (please note the new date and time!):

• on the third Tuesday of the month (check calendar for exact date)
• starting at 7:00 pm, going until whenever
• Café Mezzo Lister Meile 4, 30161 Hannover Map here

Just ask the staff at the Mezzo, and they'll point you to us. We meet in a back room in the Pavilion (entrance to the right of the Mezzo entrance). We meet and chat over food and drinks in a relaxed, informal atmosphere. Come as you are.

Other meetings

In addition to the regular meetings, we also have children's groups twice monthly, held at the Old Catholic parish hall in Kirchrode (map here). We also have occasional dart evenings and quiz nights — or organize your own with group members. Check the calendar of events in Hannover for more information on all events.

Who may attend?

Anyone who wants to meet other ex-patriates and English speakers may attend. There is no charge or membership fee. (Though you'll have to buy your own food and drinks, of course!)

Mailing lists

H4ES has two mailing lists with different areas of focus.

Announcements mailing list

If you wish to participate in H4ES meetings, then at a minimum you should sign up for our H4ES Announcements mailing list to be notified of events and meetings. Members also can use the list to ask questions about living in and around Hannover. However, discussion and chat are strongly discouraged on this list.

H4ES Chat mailing list

If you wish to chat with other H4ES members, and have signed up for the Announcements list already, then by all means, sign up for the H4ES Chat mailing list. Visit this link to sign up for H4ES Chat.
