Hey there, I always recommend the smaller coffee socials. It's so much easier to chat to people at those than at the larger socials which can be (dare I say it) clicky. We are guilty of that as we are comfortable with the friends that we meet at them. But you need to go outside of your comfort zone as well. Good luck. |

It depends on what you’re looking for. If you want to meet people and network then the small socials are best, I’ve been to a few of Jaffa’s coffee socials and recently went to Beija’s midweek social. Between 30-60 people so you get to chat to folk.
The bigger socials like the RVC one are great craic but unless you have prearranged to meet people it can be quite difficult to meet new people. So if you’re looking for a “nightclub” experience then I’d recommend the bigger socials. |

Where do you shine?
If your up for having the craic in a busy bar there's plenty of those going on.
Prefer quieter tables you can just sit in at where everyone is having a coffee and a chat. There's those too.
Jaffa's coffee socials always been great. I tend not to go to busy nights out. |

If you fancy a trip up north - we have two events coming up.
We pride ourselves on coming up with Original themes, we always have a group chat for people who are attending upcoming event to get to know each other, we play party games with guests, put on entertainment and actively try to go out of our way to introduce people to one another.
Check our verifications 😊 |

"Try joining one of the walking groups on here. A very safe, discreet, relaxed way to meet new people with lots of chat and banter during the walk and over coffee and cake afterwards.

I’d advise going onto forums and all events for the year is on there, you have been to the RedVelvetClub’s M&G lately so that is the biggest one in Ireland, there’s lots more including RVC’s club nights in Cork, also on in Cork is L.U.S.T a fellow friend and hostess 😉 there’s so many events throughout Ireland north and south 😉 so many to choose from. So again in Ireland section look for fab events and the worlds your oyster 💋💋 |

"Advice to original poster: it's nice to acknowledge the effort people have made to give you advice when you requested it. Ignoring the responses is pretty lame imo."
You are correct and to the previous posters I am sorry. I have been busy, but will get around to it soon. |

I have been to both small and large M&G events, both have pros and cons as you have stated.
With my limited availability I just need to figure what I should invest my time in. |

Yes Jaffa and RVC events are enjoyable.
I am initially looking to socialise.

"Beija’s socials, DV8 socials, keep an eye on the forums lots advertised and all good"
Honestly have not heard about Beija's socials before I started this post.
With two recommendations I may have to learn more. |
