At a Death Cafe, people—often strangers—come together to enjoy treats, sip tea, and openly discuss death. Our goal is to encourage greater awareness of death, helping us all to live more fully in the time we have.
We’re creating a warm, welcoming space where you can engage in meaningful conversations about a subject that, while often considered taboo, connects us all. Whether you’ve faced death personally or are simply curious about your own mortality, you’ll find authentic, lively discussions with individuals from diverse backgrounds.
Our gatherings are led by volunteer facilitators, with the aim of fostering positive, thoughtful dialogue within a supportive community. By coming together as a community, we forge meaningful connections that honor our shared curiosity about death.
