The new €5 million, 15,000-square-foot venue will introduce ‘competitive socialising’ to Ireland like we’ve never seen here before, creating over 50 jobs in the process.
Super Social, Ireland’s newest (and largest!) competitive socialising venue aimed at adults, is set to redefine nights out and social gatherings with friends, colleagues, dates, and loved ones! Opening next Friday December 20th, the massive new venue spans an impressive 15,000 square feet at Leopardstown Racecourse. Somehow, the owners have managed to keep the enormous and exciting new Dublin opening a secret until now! The ground-breaking space blends cutting-edge technology with hands-on fun, offering a ‘competitive socialising’ experience never seen before in Ireland. Super Social promises to be the ultimate destination for groups seeking thrilling, interactive entertainment with a modern, high-tech twist.
The venue has been in the planning since 2019, with its €5 million investment bringing a host of unparalleled attractions, including 12 Holes of High-Tech Mini Golf, NxGen Interactive Darts, Supercharged Shuffleboards, and the ground-breaking Super Social Arena – a first outside the United States. These activities take traditional games to the next level, featuring innovative tech like magnetised golf balls that track scores, automated puck tracking for shuffleboards, and darts with digital overlays and automatic scoring. Each activity is designed to appeal to a broad spectrum of visitors.
Co-founder Paul Quinn explains: “The days of people just going to the pub and drinking pints is becoming a thing of the past; people want a lot more of an experience now. We toured the US and saw incredible social venues that pushed the boundaries of entertainment. We knew we had to bring that level of tech and excitement to Dublin, and we’ve been working on this for many years now to do so.”
Dan Begley, his co-founder, adds: “The changing trends in how people socialise – especially post-pandemic – gave us confidence in this model. Super Social’s variety and quality of attractions create an experience unlike anything else, even in the US or UK. Whether it’s team-building, a fun date night, or a catch-up with friends, we’re redefining what a night out looks like.”
Super Social’s location at Leopardstown Racecourse was carefully chosen to tap into a vibrant local community. The venue is minutes from the Central Park Luas stop and offers easy access via the M50, with ample parking available. With over 500,000 people living nearby and 30,000 professionals working in Sandyford, it’s perfectly positioned to attract groups of all kinds, from after-work drinks to corporate events and even gym-goers seeking a bite to eat on their new outside terrace or 150-seater restaurant.
The venue’s stylish restaurant complements its entertainment offerings, providing a relaxed dining experience perfect for enjoying a meal before, during, or after the fun. Paul Quinn explains: “It’s not just about games. We’ve taken the standard restaurant and bar offering and elevated it to match the high-tech, interactive vibe of the rest of the venue.”
Super Social officially opens on December 20th and will operate from 12:00pm Monday to Friday and from 11:00am on weekends, closing late. Reservations can be made at www.supersocial.ie or upon arrival. Pricing for activities starts from €12.95 for Mini Golf up to €220 for the Super Social Arena for up to 10 people, with prices varying for larger groups and extended sessions.
