Hey guys...well after a lot of planning ive finally got the ball rolling with Professional Gay Speed Dating. Ive preliminary booked the VIP section of Brasserie 66 on Georges Street and will be confirmed by the end of the week.
The cost will be e15 per event with a maximum of 20 dates, the events are limited to 40 people.

I will be launching on the first weekend of October and events will begin from there forward, frequency will be pending on demand.

So...if your interested, just drop me an email:

Men....Romeoromeo@Dublin.ie
Ladies....JulietJuliet@Dublin.ie

The night will more then likely be a Monday/Tuesday, registration from 7pm, Dating starts at 8, possible 20 x 3min dates with break and drinks afterwards...I will email all attendees after the event with their friend matches and love matches and pass on contact information.

Really hoping to get this new event up and running and hoping it will be a great way for people to network, make friends and hopefully find the one!

Im on facebook also...

It wouldn't work for me personally, (The logistics would be too awkward) but it sounds like a great idea for the general public.

Hope it goes very well for you.

Can I wear a paper bag with holes for my eyes?
If so,count me in.

Sounds like fun but I don't think it's my thing..

sound intreseding

Well ive thought about how people would feel about going to something like this, hence I chose a location that would allow anyone at the event complete privacy, we will have a section closed off to ourselves and your contact information is only passed onto anyone who who mark as a friend or match...and they marked the same also.

I think it's a really good idea though.

I will definitely consider coming to this, and wish you luck with it!

Thanks 'Stewie' (Love the pic ), im hoping everyone tries it at least once and that word spreads...i dont want it to be a once off...im aiming for another regular event in the community calendar!

by the was is this a commercial enterprise

is this you coming out?

I think this is a brilliant idea. I would consider going. I know plenty of straight friends who have been spped dating and thinks it's great.

its amazing how many think its a great idea, but never go. There have been other attempts to organise speed dating but they have usually failed or never lasted long

Have there really been other attempts? God I honestly never heard of them I was only chatting about speed dating the other day with a friend of mine. I was adament that to my knowledge there was no such thing as gay speed dating. I do think that some people might get a bit frightened by the idea. Some people might think theres a social stigma attached and therefore dont go.

is it not a bit passé

I'd be up for this.
