SpeakIt NYC is a language exchange group in Astoria, New York.

SpeakIt NYC is a community group dedicated to practicing and learning languages naturally through conversation and meeting new people in the heart of Astoria. The group welcomes all cultures represented in New York City, regardless of the language or proficiency level. Participants arrive at the Heart of Gold Bar wearing flag stickers representing their native language and any languages they are learning. The event operates on a simple model: attendees spend time practicing a language they are studying and then spend the rest of the time speaking in their native language to help others. The suggested entry fee is $2, which helps cover the cost of flags and the meetup subscription, and guests are encouraged to support the venue by ordering from the bar. While the group does not guarantee specific language availability, attendees are welcome to come alone or with friends, and those seeking a specific practice partner can message in advance or simply arrive to find someone who speaks their language.
