Meetup Events Scraper - Groups, Venues, RSVPs & Organisers

Export Meetup events by keyword and city, or straight from group pages. Returns date, venue, RSVP count, hosts, group rating and description. Reads the data layer directly, so no browser and no login.

✨ What this Actor does

• Find every tech event in a city this month, with venue and expected turnout.
• Build a list of community organisers to sponsor or speak to, with group size.
• Track which topics are actually drawing attendance in a given market.
• Watch a competitor's user-group activity without joining anything.

🚀 Quick start

1. Fill in the input below — the example is already prefilled, so you can just press Start.
2. Watch the log: it names every source it reaches and how many rows each returned.
3. Export from the Storage tab as JSON, CSV, Excel or feed it straight into your own tools.

📥 Input

{
  "keywords": "python",
  "location": "gb--London",
  "maxItems": 100
}

Every field is documented in the input form. Nothing here needs an API key or a login.

❓ Frequently asked questions

Do I need an API key or an account? No. This Actor reads a public feed.

What happens if the source blocks the run? A refused exit IP is replaced within a quarter of a second, up to five times, before the Actor tries anything else. If nothing gets through, the run fails with the reason — it never reports success with zero rows, because "there is no such data" and "the source would not answer" are very different answers and you should not have to guess which one you got.

How do I schedule this? Use the Schedules tab. Daily is usually enough; the sources here do not change by the minute.

Can I get the results into Google Sheets or a database? Yes — use the dataset export, or the Apify API and integrations. Every run writes a SUMMARY record to the key-value store with the outcome and counts, which is handy for monitoring an automated pipeline.

💰 Pricing

Pay per result. You are charged for the rows you receive and nothing else, so a run that finds nothing costs nothing.

⚖️ Legal

This Actor collects publicly available information only. It does not log in, does not bypass access controls, and collects no private data. You are responsible for using the output in line with the source's terms and with applicable law, including GDPR where personal data is involved.
