🤝 **Instant connections!** You might walk in alone, but you’ll probably leave with new friends.
📅 **This Saturday at 4:00pm!**
We’ll be meeting at **R.I.O.T.**, in a brilliant private space downstairs. It’s a much bigger setup than before, with room for **up to 100 people**, so there’s more space to mingle, move around, meet new people, and settle into conversations naturally.

📍 **How to find us:**
Come into R.I.O.T. and take the stairs on the left down to the basement room. That’s where the Mishmash crew will be waiting for you.
🎉 **Theme: “International Mishmash”**
A chill space for people from all over, including Ireland, to swap stories, share laughs, and practice languages if you fancy. Shout-out to our lovely Irish regulars!
🍻 And the best part? Since we’re already at R.I.O.T., you can stay on for tasty burgers, proper pints, and more good craic. No need to move venue this time!
