Gaudium (the Latin for "Joy") is a membership club that has created a community to celebrate the vibrant energy of life over 45. Born of an independent generation who share a free-spirited love of life, a sense of adventure, and a passion for culture mixed with big dose of fun.
Gathering in memorable settings for unforgettable experiences, Gaudium is where connection, joy and the art of living well come together.
We invite our members to meet tastemakers, creators, and cultural insiders whose knowledge and access open doors to private events, hidden corners of cities, and exclusive encounters you won’t find on any normal itinerary.
We are a fully mobile and rapidly evolving club that is centred around events and experiences.
We are not a travel agent, we do not offer a concierge service, we are not a business or networking platform and we do not have a bricks and mortar premises.
A membership of Gaudium is an invitation to an enticing calendar of events, curated experiences and content to keep you informed, inspired and in the know.
We have created a beguiling community of engaging, curious, globe-trotting individuals who want to live life to the full and may be just a little bit mischievous.

Since we are fully mobile, we have no boundaries and we host our events in clubs, private homes or fascinating venues.
We invite our members to join us locally or overseas for fashion, sports, music, theatre or wellness experiences unavailable to the general public.
We curate inaccessible experiences, always with an unmistakable dose of the unexpected. Our supper clubs are hosted in original settings with inspiring guest speakers.
Everything we do is driven by the ancient Greek belief of Xenia, meaning hospitality and guest friendship. The respect from host to guest and guest to host.
We value the insight and connections that our membership community brings us through their friends and network.
We also believe deeply in giving something back – particularly to the next generation. We are on a mission to support up-and-coming artists and musician on their journeys and create events around them.

To ensure every moment is unique and personal, we prefer to work with our friends to organise extraordinary events and experiences. We are keen supporters of female-led businesses, and we love to partner with British brands.
Our members often have fantastic connections and we encourage recommendations on how we can evolve and enrich our calendar of member-only occasions.
Through our friends and our global network, Gaudium curates a series of enviable experiences and events that are inaccessible to the general public.
Join long weekends with a like-minded group to off the beaten track destinations, or join an event in places that you thought you already knew.
Contact the membership team to learn more about our 2026 programme – we'll be hosting events and experiences across the UK and in Madrid, Venice, Stockholm, Puglia, La Rioja and Lyon.
