What is Meetup Events Scraper?

Meetup Events Scraper extracts upcoming events from Meetup.com. Give it keywords and cities ("python; data science" in "New York; Berlin") and it returns every matching event with date and time, in-person / online / hybrid type, RSVP count, ticket fee, venue address and coordinates, the organising group with its rating, description and cover image. It pages through all results (hundreds per search), needs no login and no browser. $1 per 1,000 events.

Use it to find events for lead generation and sponsorship, map local tech or hobby communities, monitor competitors' meetups, or feed an events calendar.

How to use Meetup Events Scraper

  1. Enter Keywords, several separated by ;. Leave empty for all upcoming events in the location.

  3. Optional: pick Event type (in person / online), or paste Meetup search URLs from your browser.
  4. Set Max events per search (default 50) and run. Every keyword is searched in every location; events found twice are kept once.

How much does it cost?

Pay per result: $0.001 per event ($1 per 1,000), with volume discounts on paid Apify plans. Searches that fail (for example a location Meetup doesn't know) are listed in the ERRORS record and cost nothing. Set Maximum cost per run to cap spend.

Using Meetup Events Scraper with AI agents

The Actor is pay-per-event with limited permissions, so AI agents can call it through Apify's MCP server (mcp.apify.com), for example with {"keywords": "AI", "location": "London", "maxEvents": 30}. It also accepts keyword, query, city, locations and urls.

FAQ

Is scraping Meetup legal? The Actor reads the public event listings Meetup shows to logged-out visitors. It doesn't collect attendee lists or member profiles.

Can I get the list of attendees? No. Attendee data needs a login and is personal data, so it's out of scope.

Why is the venue empty? Online events have no venue. About 1 in 7 in-person events in our tests didn't publish a venue in the listing either.

How far ahead does it search? Meetup's search returns upcoming events, starting today.

Part of the webdatatools web-intelligence suite — every Actor is pay-per-event, reads public data without a login, and returns one clean row per entity:
