About this Event
This is not your average singles event. Itβs a full-day celebration of connection, craic, and a little bit of luck. With 1,000+ singles all in one magical space, the Matchmaking Festival is where fun, flirtation, and fate come together.
Your Free General Admission RSVP gives you all-day access to the festival from 12 PM to the wee hours of the night. Pop in early, stay late, wander about, and see where the day takes you.
Explore the festival grounds, soak up the good vibes, and jump into a lineup of free experiences designed to spark chats, create meet-cutes, and make connecting feel easy and playful.
All day long, youβll find dancing, games, social moments, and pop-up surprises tucked around every corner. Everything is thoughtfully planned to keep things light, flirty, and pressure-free. Behind the scenes, our matchmaking technology quietly does its thing, helping the right people find each other so no sparks slip through the cracks.
