OVERVIEW

We are the PANDAS

🐼 3 COMMUNITY. 1 FAMILY.

The family for anyone who wants to enjoy their free time in good company, meet new people and share real experiences.

Through our communities we organise snow trips ⛷️, social events 🎉, aperitivos 🍻, travel 🌍, hikes 🥾, outdoor sports 🚵 and loads of other chances to break the routine and make new friends.

IT’S NOT JUST WHAT YOU DO.
IT’S WHO YOU DO IT WITH.

Snow, sport, nature, adventure, aperitivos, dinners, concerts, parties, festivals, trips: the activities change, the people stay. The real value is the friendships that grow over time.

That’s what makes followthepanda different: we DON’T treat the community like a catalogue where you pick what you like and go home.

We often throw ourselves into something we’ve never tried, step out of our comfort zone and do it together with the other Pandas.

Over time you end up in a group you never want to leave: one big bunch of friends, always open to new faces. 🐼

What matters is wanting to share something.

Our goal is to create experiences and share them with people — maybe people you didn’t even know yet — who make you feel good.

🏔️ THREE SOULS, ONE PHILOSOPHY

Three different worlds. One Family.

🐼 NO LABELS HERE
18 → 79the ages you meet at our events today

No limits, just a starting point: we’re looking for people who want to share something — and who are over 18!

At our events you’ll meet people aged 18 to 79 (depending on the activity, of course!), from all over Italy, with all sorts of jobs. What do they have in common? Our Panda Philosophy: respect, inclusion, irony, spontaneity and a love of being together.

+ A FAMILY THAT KEEPS GROWING

We started as a small community of snow-crazy people and, year after year, built something much bigger.

Karibu Tribe and Dopolavoro were born partly because the Pandas asked for them: not to lose touch over summer while waiting for the snow season, but to keep living experiences together all year round.

Today the Family is in lots of Italian cities, with a strong presence in the North and steady growth towards new cities and new places.

Our goal isn’t simply to get bigger.

It’s to take the same energy, the same spirit and the same sense of belonging further and further.

OUR MANIFESTO

WE ARE THE PANDAS

The Family for anyone who wants to enjoy their free time in good company.

THE PRINCIPLE Activities are the tool. Wellbeing and sharing are the result.

01 /

PEOPLE FIRST

We start from people, the passions they share and the experiences they live together.

02 /

EXPERIENCES THAT STICK

We choose quality, authenticity and relationships that last — even if it means fewer events.

03 /

IDEAS BELONG TO EVERYONE

Anyone can suggest something. If you organise, you chip in too — your car, your time, your energy.

04 /

WE RESPECT PEOPLE

No unsolicited private messages: manners, boundaries and common sense come first.
