My main goal in giving this review is NOT to induce hibernation in the audience. Rather, it is to survey the known cases of erupting classical novae in open and globular clusters, and galaxies external to the Milkey Way. More important, I want to emphasize what these novae in stellar systems can teach us about nova eruptions. In my conclusions I will make a few brief remarks about what we might hope to know about classical novae by the time IAU Symposium #222 occurs (by then Space Telescope will hopefully have been in orbit and producing scientific results for many years!). References to older works may be found in the reviews of Trimble (1980) and Webbink (1980).
