Offline Reading Party 📚 (& book swap!) | Marlin Indoor Garden
📚 Join The Offline Club at the Marlin Hotel's Indoor Garden for our Offline Reading Party + book swap!
Use the code: CASH for cash payments.
Lock your phone away and enjoy a relaxing reading time free of digital distractions. This reading party is your time to disconnect from screens, unwind from the daily buzz and meet like-minded people (and their books).
It’s like a little escape into a different world where time slows down, people are open to connect, and you can truly focus on yourself.
What to expect:
📖 Peaceful (me-)time to read that book you keep meaning to start (or finish!)
🤝 The chance to meet and connect with like-minded booklovers
💬 A space where connection is easy - no rush, no pressure, no notifications
🫖 Community vibes, calming background music, and a welcoming atmosphere
📵 Valuable time offline that leaves you feeling rested and fulfilled
📚 Book swap - bring a book and take another one home!
*Marlin is kindly hosting us to support our mission, so let’s return the love - your own drinks and snacks may stay home, you can purchase the drinks and snacks in the cafe.
The Program, curated by our community hosts:
18:30 - 18:45 | Arrive & make yourself at home
18:45 - 20:00 | Dive into your book
20:00 - 21:20 | Connect with others
21:20 - 21:30 | Round-up and goodbye
👉🏼 Dive into your book
This is your time to sit back and enjoy uninterrupted reading time. Slow down, recharge and feel the magic of reading alone, together. Please bring your own book, ebook, graphic novel, or poetry bundle - we love all literature.
👉🏼 Connect with others
Chat & connect with others, but only if you feel like it. This is the time to meet new people, connect over books, and enjoy meaningful conversations. We create laid-back spaces where talking to strangers is the norm and connection is made easy. Feel free to come solo, or with friends.
We can’t wait to swap screen time for real time with you.
Love, The Offline Club Dublin
About your phone: Your phone will rest in our phone hotel, and we’ll be its bodyguards. But just so you know, if it magically disappears, learns to fly, or mysteriously breaks, The Offline Club can’t be held responsible.
In case you’re not quite ready to let it go, no worries - feel free to turn it off and keep it tucked away, out of sight!
Refunds? Sorry, no take-backs.
But! If you cancel at least 48 hours before the event, you can request a €10 voucher to use toward a future event.
