Sober Rave
This sober event takes place at The Complex Gallery & Studios in Dublin 7, and is for those who want to let their freak fly without the influence of alcohol.
As stated on-site, while this event isn’t anti-anything, it instead “wants to promote rave energy without the need for alcohol/drugs.” It compares it to the feeling of dancing around your bedroom to a song you love, a distinct feeling and joy we all know too well.
Location:
The Complex, Dublin 7
When:
Saturday April 8th, 7pm – 10pm

Scéal Bakery Pop-up
Ever since Scéal stopped their regular Thursday and Saturday schedule, we’ve been devastated. There’s nothing quite like their pastries in Dublin, which is why it’s even more exciting when they have a pop-up event, like this Saturday.
Their special for the weekend is a Shokupan bun filled with lush vanilla crème diplomat, finished with a burnt honey and chocolate glaze and a sprinkle of sea salt. And naturally they’ll have some hot cross buns too.
Location:
Fumbally Stables
When:
Saturday April 8th, 10am – 1pm
