A phone free night to connect with others, create, read, write, relax or just chill. No technology and lots of things to do.
A phone-free night in Dublin city centre to slow down and spend time offline.
Come along for an easygoing evening of reading, making, chatting, relaxing, or just having a break from screens for a few hours. No phones, no notifications, no pressure to do anything in particular.
The welcome event is taking place in a mystery venue near Temple Bar and will only be sent to ticket holders.
We’ll have a large upstairs space with light background music and plenty of room to settle in however you feel like. Attendees are encouraged to come alone as we want people to meet others.
There’ll be collage materials, paper, pens, magazines, and drawing supplies available throughout the night. Bring a book if you’ve been meaning to read. Start a collage. Draw. Journal. Meet someone new. Come with friends or come on your own.
You’re welcome to chat with people or keep to yourself. Both are equally encouraged.
This is simply a space to switch off for a while and enjoy being present, around other people doing the same.

Experience Dublin's mysterious legends and myths on this 90 minute walking tour.
### Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls!
Ireland has a unique relationship with its legendary past. Kept alive in the histories of the Filí and the Seanchaidhe, Ireland’s gods were not destroyed but - in the words of Mark Williams - demoted to lesser beings. This is an important element of Ireland’s oral histories, which in turn have coloured its popular histories and left many legends for us to parse over today.
On the other side of Irish history we have the ballrooms, the salons, and the private studies of Dublin’s litterati. The seances and unwrapping parties, the mysteries and the macabre, all combining into the secret esoteric orders that strove to unlock the secrets of existence.
Come explore with us where these two elements fuse to create the wonderful world of Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls that are just as much a part of Dublin’s history as any of its citizens and buildings…
