“Daddi Club is a bit unstable. It moves from one venue to another. Some venues are OK, others dreadful. The Turks Head main area is good. Voodoo Lounge is the worst. Tramline is somewhere in between the two. You have to check the Facebook page to see where it is hosted next, and what date, and what night (again a bit unstable).
Promoters do not do a good job of clearly indicating venue and date / day or club. Seem more interested in 'interesting' graphics on their posters.
The crowd, however can be fun. Its not fetish, but some fetish go and are proud and not out of place. The crowd can be flirty and a bit cruisy. You can get a snog on the dancefloor if you're lucky. The crowd is a bit on the older side, but that's good.
Less women / girls go to this club, which is a relief (apart from shared toilet facilities mess in Tramline venue).
Overall can be fun, but is inconsistent.“
“A very bad party. It is not a fetish event. In the same building there are straight events happening, it feels like a zoo with groups of drunk girls laughing at the gays. It is appalling that the promoters arrange the event like this just to line their own pockets. Rip off entry, bar prices, no dark room.“
“DaDDi is not a genuine fetish party. Mostly overweight older guys go there. No fetish wear. Venue is small. 15 euro entry for a bar really. Don't go.“
“You pay 12e to get in, 5e for the cloakroom.
If you go to the "fetish" party, leave your rubber or leather at home because Fetish in Daddi means jeans a t-shirt.
If you do wear leather, be ready for the walk of shame amongst the other "normal" parties going on in the building when you go take a leak.
I was wearing a harness and the bouncer demanded me to cover my chest before going to the toilets.
The Darkroom is a joke: it's a curtain.
I am not sure the people who left reviews above mine have ever travelled.“
“It's only on once a month, or less, so a bit of a special night. The place is quite good, and a decent sexy vibe to the guys. Music is good, if a bit monotonous. Overall very good event. Some people make a great effort with clothes (or lack of), so that's interesting also..“
“When I'm going out in Dublin ,it's most definitely when daddi club night is on...the host Stephen and Mike make you feel so welcome and all the staff from door to cloakroom are super friendly.Fantastic international djs,gogo boys and all the hottest of Irish men to entertain.Wear what u want ..dance how u want to, with two floors full of fun.... what club nights in Dublin should be made off.. make sure u check it out...u won't be disappointed.....“
“Steve and his crew have taken the best of mainland Europe clubs and brought it to Dublin, then they added a dash of fabulous Irishness, known as "The Craic", and have ended up with an Überclub, which is so good, and attracts such a smorgasbord of hairy hotties, they're now re exporting back to various venues on mainland Europe. Hats off guys, it's an absolute winner!“
“My favorite night in Dublin. Even better now that's moved to The Voodoo Lounge. Always a great line up of local and international djs. Lots of hot men and always a sexy atmosphere. The hottest Go-Go boys too. Highly recommended. Eddie“
“Over the years I have visited cities all around the world and experienced a truly diverse range of parties and themes threw out but not one of them have a thing on DADDi. Not only does this party feel like home when entering you know a full effort is made every month. Dj's are flown in from across Europe playing some of the most amazing tunes - the talent is fit as f**k including the half naked dancers and what I love is each month is themes with collectibles to have as memorabilia including some amazing harnesses. A must go in my opinion.“
“I've been to Daddi now a few times & I'm never disappointed! The atmosphere is amazing & the variety of international DJ's are spot on! The hosts Mike & Steve always make you feel so welcome & are a pleasure do deal with! If you want a hot, steamy night full of hot men & bear fun while you dance the night away, then Daddi is your place! Can't recommend it highly enough! Next event is October that stretches over the last weekend in October. 3 Days of Daddi fun!! Can't wait!!! Whoohoo!!!“
“Been here a few times & it has the hottest Men in Ireland.
International & Local DJ's play great music. They just moved to a new venue called Voodoo Lounge & it's Grrrrr..eat!“
