Offline Challenge EU

Hi Graz! Want to put your screen down and get control of your time again? Find out what to expect at our Offline Hangout Zones

It's really up to you how you want to spend your offline time. Join to read a book you've been wanting to read, finish a passion project, get creative, talk with strangers or just take that well deserved nap

No pressure, we're there to chill either alone, together or meet some new friends. We bring some games and usually have a theme to keep so you can keep hands busy.

We have a phone locker and we encourage each other to get a few hours of disconnecting to reconnect with ourselves, and you're very welcome to come give it a try.
We're an international group so our main language is English :D

Disconnect to finally relax, make time to read that book, get 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞, be 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞, take a well deserved nap or join us in with whatever experience we offer that day.

Being offline for a few hours can help us feel more 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐭, 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝, and increase 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬

There is nothing to lose, and so much you can accomplish. We often realize we haven't missed anything important by being offline for a few hours.

Come and find out for yourself how it feels to disconnect.

𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐝?
Generally our experiences are meant to help you unplug, and we encourage you to try a few hours of disconnecting to reconnect with yourself and others.

𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐲 𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞?
We suggest you use our phone locker. We’ll give you a chip with a number, just return it and show us you can unlock your phone to get it back whenever you wish.
