Belfast Local Dates from Your Couch
**💞 Zoom-Hosted Speed Dating for Belfast Singles Mutual Matches After**
You get to work through quick timed video chats with people from Belfast sorted by age and compatibility, while the host manages transitions so you can focus on the person in front of you.
Before the event, you answer a few quick personality questions — those answers are used to line up well-matched Belfast people for your rounds, ensuring your matches are intentional and not random.
Once the rounds are done, mutual connections are confirmed and shared — contact details flow only on mutual selection — and everything that follows is on your schedule.
**Register via your age group:**
- **Ages 18-32** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=470.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Belfast&groupurlname=club-of-intentional-singles-seeking-depth&ar=18-32&face_v=3.0)
- **Ages 30-46** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=470.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Belfast&groupurlname=club-of-intentional-singles-seeking-depth&ar=30-46&face_v=3.0)
- **Ages 40-58** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=470.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Belfast&groupurlname=club-of-intentional-singles-seeking-depth&ar=40-58&face_v=3.0)
- **Ages 55+** → [REGISTER HERE](https://tempodating.com/product?productId=470.0&productType=onlineSpeedDating&city=Belfast&groupurlname=club-of-intentional-singles-seeking-depth&ar=55+&face_v=3.0)
**⚠️ Please note:** Clicking rsvp is only the first step not the whole process, so click your age group link, complete the form, and take the short personality questionnaire — limited capacity means you should not wait, and the quiz plus registration together hold your place.
---
**At a Glance**
- **Format:** Real-time via Zoom with host-managed video rounds throughout, age-grouped and personality-curated from the start.
- **Where:** No travel required — from whatever device you have handy, a connected device with a camera is everything you need, and at home or wherever you are most relaxed is fine.
- **Host:** A welcoming host manages all transitions so you can focus on conversations, giving the whole session a relaxed and easy feel — the format, timing, and transitions are all in their hands.
- **Vibe:** Low-pressure Zoom date rounds with locals from Belfast who skipped the apps, and the conversation always feels more real than an app date.
- **Duration:** Usually sixty to ninety minutes from round one onwards, and most people wish it were longer.
**Made for:**
- Anyone around Belfast who are tired of profiles that never convert to actual dates and want to talk to real people tonight.
- Someone near Belfast leaving behind conversations that fizzle before a first date and want actual face-to-face conversation.
- People in the Belfast area ready to move past digital dating that never converts to anything real and are ready for something that feels natural.
- Those around Belfast who no longer want apps that waste evenings for no return and want actual face-to-face conversation.
**The process**
1. **Register** – through the link corresponding to your age range, then submit the quick matching questionnaire, because this step is your confirmation not the RSVP.
2. **Join the session** – by clicking the Zoom link at the event start time, zero setup is required — just open the link, and a live host guides every step from there.
3. **Get into the rounds** – short one-on-one rounds with Belfast singles sorted to your age and personality, as the host signals round starts and ends, because every conversation has been set up to feel natural.
4. **Check your results** – mutual connections are confirmed and sent after the session, so your info only reaches someone who also chose you, and then the rest is yours to decide entirely.
💡 **Top tip:** find a quiet well-lit spot beforehand, so you can be fully present from round one, as it is worth doing before you need it not during.

✨ Done with digital connections that lead nowhere — secure your place via the link above and we will handle the rest for this one. The evening starts the moment you register. 🕊️ ✨
Sunday boardgame meetup
Our free-of-charge meet-up in the Black Sheep Pub on Capel Street.
This is a casual meet up for people who want to play boardgames. Lots of people bring plenty of games and rules will always be explained so don't worry if you're new to the hobby and you don't have anything to bring along or think you won't know how to play.
The meet-up runs for the whole day but late comers always welcome, you just may have to wait a little for a game to open up but games will be starting and ending throughout the day.
**IMPORTANT!**
**The meet up is free of charge but we do ask that people support the bar by buying food and/or drink. The bar is very accommodating to us and it's important that we support them in return. Bringing in outside food or drink is completely unacceptable.**
Check out the comments below where people will say what games they are bringing and express your interest in joining if interested.
Any questions contact either of the organisers Gavin or Stephen.
Let’s play… Desperation: Dead House / Hex and the City
Join us every Sunday and tell a story as a group by playing a beginner-friendly roleplaying game. Every week we have 2-3 different games - you will choose which game you play on the day. All materials provided and rules are explained at the start of each game, you just need to bring your imagination.
🎭 **This week's facilitators:**
* 🏚️ **Eoin** with *[Desperation: Dead House](https://bullypulpitgames.itch.io/desperation)*, a card-based RPG where you build a 19th Century Nebraska town and then roleplay its inhabitants experiencing an apocalyptic winter. As supplies and sanity dwindle in equal measure, who will live and who will be added to the dead house?
* 🌆 **Vishnu** with *[Hex and the City](https://theinvulnerabletide.itch.io/hex-and-the-city)*, an urban fantasy game based on *Lasers and Feelings*. You are all that stands between the forces of darkness and the innocent people that don't believe in them. Whatever hijinks and personal drama you have going on in the background, you have always managed to come through and save this City. Or at least, you have until SERENITY, THE CHOSEN ONE got herself grievously wounded in the last battle, leaving you with no prophetic visions to guide you, or convenient one-shot monster killing powers while she recovers. (Or maybe she's off "recuperating" with her demon boyfriend again, who knows?)

Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin)).
