Welcome to a night of actual conversations, genuine sparks, and a room full of incredible men looking for the exact same thing you are.

🕒 Event Schedule

24th of June

• 19:10 – Arrival & Mingle
• 19:20 – Registration & Table Assignments
• 19:30 – Speed Dating Starts SHARP (Please don’t be late, or you’ll miss your first dates!)

📍 Location: Downstairs at The Black Sheep (61 Capel St, Rotunda, Dublin) 🎂 Age Group: 25+

📋 How It Works

It’s incredibly simple, relaxed, and designed to make sure everyone gets a fair chance to connect.

• The Welcome: When you arrive, our host will welcome you, sign you in, and hand you a dating scorecard and a name badge.
• The Dates: Your badge will match a starting table. You will have a series of one-on-one dates lasting about 5 minutes each. When the bell rings, it’s time to rotate!
• The Mix: Because this is an all-men event, our rotation system ensures that everyone will get a chance to date across the groups throughout the evening. No one gets left out!
• The Scorecard: After each date, simply mark on your card if you felt a spark or are interested in seeing them again.
• The Results: Hand your card to the host before you leave. Within 24 hours, we will share your matches via WhatsApp!

💬 The Next Step

Once you receive your matches, the ball is in your court! It is up to you to make the first move, send that first text, and organize that second date.

⚠️ Important Notes

• Privacy & Matching: By participating, you agree that if you hit a mutual match, we will share your mobile phone number with the person you matched with so you can connect directly.
• Accessibility: Unfortunately, the venue is not fully accessible as there is no lift to the downstairs area.
• Inclusivity: Of course, all men and all nationalities are welcome! 🫶
• Stay Tuned: This is the perfect warm-up just before our next big celebration: the Pride Parade! Keep an eye on our Instagram page for more updates: @manas.dublin
