Board Game Meet Up in Celbridge!
A weekly board game meet up in "Mc Mahon’s Bar and Eatery" which is a pub. We get our own section, it's wheelchair friendly and parking is free! 🙂
Whether you are new or a veteran player you are all are welcome!
General guidelines are:
1. Avoid handing drinks to people OVER a game.
2. We cannot take responsibility in the event of theft so keep your valuables close to you.
3. Strictly over 18+ only.
The "rules" would be:
1. Be respectful to each other.
2. Don't be a creep.
3. Be patient to players of all skill levels.
Failure to be a decent human being\* will jeopardise your participation in future events.
The pub owner is really nice and are letting us use the space so if you can - please buy a tea, coffee or a drink on the night to support them if you can but don't feel obligated to do so.
They also do food so you won't go hungry!
The event starts at 7 PM and everyone is free to play until 11 PM where we'll wrap it up for the cleaners.
Feel free to bring your games, join in on a game if there's space or organise a game here for the upcoming event to get participants. We advertise the games we want to play ahead of time on our discord server, so feel free to check it out. https://discord.gg/xW8WryXmKu
If you get lost or have any questions feel free to message me on WhatsApp at 0858405446.
Just a note for those coming by car from Dublin:
1. I highly recommend using the motorway then driving into the pub. There's a slightly faster way with the back roads but unless you are from the area its not worth the 2 minutes saved since it's barely lit and the bends are somewhat hazardous.
2. Traffic from 5 - 6:30 is horrendous but the roads are clear enough after this time.

The Literati Dublin
Hello Everyone!
Let's read something before coming to the event. It can be a few pages from a book, an article, a poem, an advertisement, a joke, a recipe, a quote, social media content - anything you find interesting. We meet and chat about it, as a starting point of conversation.
Please feel free to bring books :)
Art, Culture & Conversation | National Gallery of Ireland
Looking for a different kind of evening in Dublin?
This Thursday, NomadÉire is heading to the National Gallery of Ireland for an evening of art, culture, and conversation. We'll spend a couple of hours exploring one of Ireland's premier cultural institutions, taking in everything from classical masterpieces to contemporary works while getting to know fellow members of the community.
Whether you're an art enthusiast, a casual museum-goer, or simply looking for an interesting way to spend an evening with great people, this event is for you. No art history knowledge required.
Whether you are a digital nomad, remote professional, entrepreneur, creative, founder, traveler, student, or local, come join us. This is a relaxed opportunity to connect with curious and interesting people while experiencing one of Dublin's most iconic cultural destinations.
What to expect:
• Explore the galleries at your own pace while meeting fellow NomadÉire members.
• Discover Irish and international artwork spanning centuries.
• Enjoy thoughtful conversations inspired by art, culture, travel, and life in Dublin.
• Meet new people in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
• Optional pub visit afterward for anyone who wants to continue the evening.
We'll meet outside the National Gallery of Ireland at **6:30 PM** and explore the gallery until approximately **8:00 PM**.
Afterward, we'll see how the group is feeling and may head to a nearby pub for a drink and some additional conversation.
Come alone or bring a friend. Either way, you'll be warmly welcomed and quickly introduced to the group.
Sometimes the best conversations happen when you're wandering through a gallery with interesting people. Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
Ideas On Tap
Come spend an evening in the pub listening to fascinating talks, meeting interesting people, and diving into ideas you probably won’t hear anywhere else.
Join us for a chat about ideas while having a pint. Meet new people, learn about new things and try something different.
**PLEASE NOTE: Our events are ticketed, so you need to get a ticket to attend, RSVPING does not gain entry.**

**How Ireland Became a Battlefield for Hollywood by Noel Donnellon**
From *Saving Private Ryan* to *Michael Collins*, Ireland has played a surprising role in bringing some of cinema's most memorable war stories to life.
Drawing on decades of experience working behind the camera, cinematographer Noel Donnellon explores the remarkable history of war films shot in Ireland.
Through rare behind-the-scenes stories, production insights and film history, he'll reveal why filmmakers have repeatedly turned to Irish locations to recreate conflicts from around the world.
Expect stories from the sets of major productions, insights into the legendary Flying Films era, and a fascinating look at Ireland's unexpected place in war movie history.
After each talk there’s a live Q&A, drinks, conversation, and a chance to meet new people who are curious about the world and up for a good night out that’s a little different from the usual pub routine.
We’re also looking for new speakers from all kinds of backgrounds. Academics, writers, artists, researchers, comedians, creatives, or anyone deeply obsessed with a topic they love talking about.
If you’ve got an idea that could make for an unforgettable night in the pub, we want to hear it.

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… The Wildsea / The (Orc) Pope Is Dead
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:
* **Colin** will run The Wildsea: Centuries ago, the old world was swallowed by a sea of mile-high trees. Now you and your crew sail across the treetops of the Wildsea in a shop driven by a chainsaw. Low magic, high weird, leaf-punk adventures await! Your crew has heard rumors of same rare materials revealed by a recent storm and you are off to explore!
* **Silvia** will run The (Orc) Pope Is Dead, yet another silly adventure by Grant Howitt.
Terrible news: you and the lads went out drinking with the Pope last night and now he’s dead. The orcish church of Bog-Al-Kurruk is without a leader. Can you and your mates - esteemed clerics all - work out which one of you it’s going to
be, and then outdo or discredit your rivals to claim the most prestigious title in the orc nation?

Details for the event (number of groups and games) will be published here or earlier on our [Discord server](https://tinyurl.com/indie-rpgs-dublin). Feel free to ask the organisers any questions you have (here or on Discord).
