How we manage bookings

Event bookings in Exchange are decided upon in the space, every Wednesday evening at 7pm at our open Collective Meeting. These meetings are completely open to anyone at all who wants to pop along and listen in - you're free to participate as much or as little as you like. If you are looking to book an event, it's a very good idea to attend a collective meeting both to get a feel for how the space works, and also to pitch your idea and get some feedback/answer people's questions/recruit help/etc.

How to book your event

As well as our Collective Meetings, please DO email us at bookings@exchangedublin.ie or fill out the form below so we have your contact details and event on record - we can be a little forgetful at times. Exchange is entirely run by volunteers who manage things like this in their spare time, so please be patient if you're waiting for a reply to your correspondence.

Promoting your event

If you're running an event in Exchange, it's a good idea to send us an event blurb and if possible some relevant photos/promotional designs/etc. so we can post them on our website - these can be sent on to us at promotion@exchangedublin.ie Again, this is manually updated by volunteers whenever they find the time, so please don't get mad if we're occasionally a bit late - we do our best.

If you're producing promotional material for an event that's happening in the space, please be sure to include the following five logos on all of your posters for our lovely friends who help us out now and again. Exchange Affiliate Logos. You can also find our own logo here (colour) and here (BW).

Rules of Exchange Bookings

After a great deal of deliberation, debate, and experience in handling double-bookings and tight calendars, the Exchange Collective recently settled on a set of rules regarding regular bookings in the space. Due to a huge demand on time and space in our calendar, these should (we hope) serve to ensure the space remains as open as possible to new things, and that everyone who wishes to run events in the space gets an equitable opportunity to do so regardless of how busy our schedule gets. The new rules are as follows:

1. We do not make perpetual bookings. If you wish to book a regular event, it must run for a set period.
2. Weekly bookings should ideally run for a maximum period of one month/four weeks at a time - longer periods should be discouraged, but are at the discretion of the collective
3. Fortnightly bookings should ideally run for a maximum of two months/eight weeks at a time, etc. etc.

These rules are (like everything in Exchange Dublin) an experiment. Please do feel free to let us know what you think.
