Non Drinking Quiz Night in Dublin City Centre!

NonDrinkersClub

I'm thinking of organising a Non Drinking Quiz Night in Dublin...but before I start making plans, I'd just like to see if there's enough people interested. There'll most likely be a bit of live music too!

I been organising stuff like this for years and it's always really fun.

I'm thinking the quiz could start at around 8.30 in either a coffee place or non-drinking area of pub (Cassidy's Westmoreland St upstairs is lovely). Any other ideas for venues welcome. I could have it on a weekend but it will cost more than a weekday. What would people prefer?

There'll be a small charge per table which should cover the quiz prizes and hopefully the venue. I am contacting various organisations to get sponsorship for prizes, etc.

So whatta ya think? Any suggestions welcome

monkeyfudge

Yep. It's something I'd attend anyway.

Karen_*

I'd attend too!

Richie860504

Yeah, I'd be there.

jhayden

Yep, I'd be there too if available.

barneysplash

Yes, me too. Let me know if you want some questions, I love a table quiz.

cailinoBAC

Yeah, I love table quizzes. And I know a non-boards non-drinker who would come along too...

zAbbo

NonDrinkersClub

Thanks to everyone who has replied so far!

If anyone else is interested, please post a reply on this thread! I need 16 people minimum. Also, if you are planning on bringing friends, please say so

I recently contacted Cineworld & they have very kindly given me some lovely cinema related prizes for the table quiz winners! Prizes will include cinema tickets, soft drinks vouchers & large popcorn vouchers.

There will be other great prizes on the night too.

Many thanks to Cineworld!

Sounds good, mid week is good too. A small function room in a hotel could cover it too.

headlessloon

i'll be there and i have a friend who'll go too. midweeks cool.

Skitbra

Yep, myself and my mate would go.

I'm not from Dublin but work there from time to time, Id definitely be interested, depending on when its on

Bottle_of_Smoke

I'll go & try & bring a friend/friends. Will update if I get confirmations. Weekday probably best/

quickbeam

I'd be up for it. Weekend or weekday - I don't mind.

Earthhorse

I'd be up for this too. Don't mind if it's weekday or weekend either.

lostexpectation

as a btw, where would you find a venue that wasn't that back room/upstairs of a pub, I guess a fucntion room in cheap hotel is a good idea, or perhaps a communtiy centre.

NonDrinkersClub

This is great - I reckon that we have enough people to get the ball a rollin'! It's tough enough finding a venue but leave it with me...I know a lovely quiet pub function room seperate from the bar that would be good if we got some food and softdrinks brought up...I'll send around event details later this week! if anyone else wants to go, please post on this thread!

Hi there

I would be interested in this.Probably get a few friends along to. Just wondered if you'd had the chance to get any updates on it yet.

Thanks Zan Tropical

NonDrinkersClub

Hi All - great news! I've found a venue called 'Cassidy's' on Westmoreland Street. It's been done up recently and has a cool bohemian-type vibe.

I've spoken to the manager and he said they would fully support any non drinking events we want to have there. Monday / Tuesday nights are all good. Let me know what suits you!

They just got a new fancy coffee machine which he claims is better than Starbucks! Lots of yummy food on the menu and if it's cool with people, we can order a few platters on the night.

I'm thinkin of chargin 20euro per table (4 people) and I'll use the money to buy platters & prizes. That ok?

Richie860504

Hi. Tuesday night is probably better for myself but would need a date as I do be down in the country alot sometimes during the week. But if everone else goes with Monday I'm sure I could make it. 20 euro is grand. Looking forward to it

jhayden

Tuesday would be better for me also though I should be able to get down on monday also.

Tuesday would be better for me also though I should be able to get down on Monday also.

monkeyfudge

That sounds great.

Might be worth starting a thread in events to publicise it as well.

I'll happily do up a few sigs for you as well to help promote it around the site.

Hermy

Monday or Tuesday (except next Tuesday - Rollins in Vicar Street) is good for me. I'll try making a team of four but I'll bring at least one other person with me.

Zan tropical

Firstly, thanks very much for your efforts in organising this. I know it can be a hassle getting things together. Tuesday in general is a better night for me although I'm happy to chime in either way.

Thanks Zan

cailinoBAC

In general I would say Mondays were better for me, but they're a bit busy now too. I'll see if I can make it on whatever night is chosen. I'll let some friends know anyway. Cassidy's is nice, that's where we were having the book club until recently.

monkeyfudge

I'm sure I could do either night... but Tuesday might suit better.

Angus MacGyver

sounds good. could prob get a few people to come along.

Bottle_of_Smoke

any hope in this still happening?

cailinoBAC

Yeah, I was wondeing too...

NonDrinkersClub

Hey All

I'm still working on this! It's harder to organise then you'd think. I have a volunteer who's getting the questions part sorted. Pretty much you're gonna have to watch this space...but fear not, I'll let people know as soon as I have it sorted.

Cheers

monkeyfudge

Good stuff.

Keep us posted. I'm still interested in attending.
