Valentine’s Day – it’s either a rom-com fantasy or an absolute farce depending on your current dating situation. But whether you’re smitten, single, or just here for the craic, we’ve got something to spice up your midweek.
On Thursday, February 13th, SuperValu and Lovin Dublin are throwing a Valentine’s event, 'Turnip the Love', at SuperValu Ranelagh, with Annie Lavin, relationship therapist and master coach & our own Marcus O’Laoire at the helm – and let’s be honest, they know how to throw a party. Expect games, chats, prizes, and some top-tier matchmaking potential.
Forget awkward dinner dates and overpriced roses – this is Valentine’s, but with a twist. Whether you’re looking to meet someone or just fancy a laugh, here’s what’s in store:
💘 Supermarket Dash – You’ll grab an item from the shelves that best represents you (bonus points for creativity) and explain your choice to the person beside you. It’s an icebreaker.
👂 The Art of Listening – Relationship expert Annie Lavin is on hand to help you fine-tune those listening skills. Because let’s face it, nodding and winking while thinking about your next pint isn’t gonna cut it.
🍓 Fruit & Veg Profiling – Pick your fruit or veg of choice (think strawberries, chillis, pineapples) and let Annie reveal what it says about you. Does choosing a chilli mean you’re spicy in the DM’s? Only one way to find out.
🎤 Q&A & Prize Time – Get your burning relationship questions answered, or at least witness some juicy ones from the crowd. And yes, there are prizes – so even if love isn’t on the cards, you might still bag something decent.
Eh, yes. Whether you’re a romantic hopeful, a committed ‘galentine’ squad member, or just here to watch the chaos unfold, this is set to be a serious bit of craic.
TL;DR? Good vibes, good chats, a deadly host, and a much better alternative to scrolling through Hinge alone.
Only 25 places available so get your name in the hat quick! Starts at 18:30 and wraps up at 20:00.
