We are rounding off 2025 with something relaxed, festive and well deserved after a busy year of pixels, prototypes and AI.

Join us on Thursday 4th December for our end of year FoF Southampton Christmas Social at Oasis Bar, an independent family run spot just off the High Street and a short walk from the Christmas Market.

This is our chance to unwind with the community we have built this year. Expect a friendly evening of casual drinks, creative chat and light networking with familiar faces from previous events and a few new ones too.

We will be there from 6:30 PM, the perfect time for an after work Thursday. The official event wraps up around 8:30 PM, but you are welcome to stay longer. Many of us will likely wander over to the Christmas Market afterwards for food and a bit more festive fun.

The venue 🍸

Oasis Bar is a hidden gem on Southampton High Street that serves a wide range of drinks. It is within walking distance of Oxford Street and Westquay Watermark, making it an ideal spot for a Thursday night get together.

The team at Oasis have kindly reserved tables for us. Please be respectful of regulars and the bar staff while you are there so we can keep that warm FoF atmosphere alive.

A note on drinks 🍻

This is a relaxed, buy-your-own style social. There is no bar tab or sponsored drinks for this one, so please support our venue by purchasing directly from the bar.

Tickets 🎟️

As always, tickets are free. Please sign up so we know how many tables to reserve.

After a year of live challenges, creative talks and plenty of new faces, we wanted to end 2025 with something simple. Time to reconnect, relax and celebrate another year of creativity, collaboration and community.

So grab your coat, join us for a drink and help us toast to 2025 and the exciting things ahead for 2026.
