Need to vanquish a dismal date? Then ditch them for The Kraken’s ‘Date Escape’ party!
Valentine’s Day is supposed to be the most romantic night of the year, but what if your date is an absolute [sea] beast? Or you’re two sips into your bland Valentine’s cocktail, AKA the ‘Love Potion’ or ‘Cupid’s Arrow’ (kill us now), and you realise you’re stuck with the muse for Uncle Colm in Derry Girls.
This Valentine’s Day, The Kraken Black Spiced won’t stand by and watch its loyal minions suffer through tedious dates, and so has summoned the mighty Beast to roar to the rescue in a benevolent plot to pluck 50 loyal minions from Valentine’s Day misery, offering tickets to an exclusive Kraken Date Escape party in Dublin.
This Valentine’s, The Kraken is saving your soul
A recent study into dating* discovered that 58% of dating hopefuls, instead of heading for the door, sat through a bad date out of politeness, discomfort or because they naively hoped it would get better… But the benevolent Beast cannot abide suffering in silence, and demands his loyal followers crush their Valentine blues to embrace a truly magnificent party in Dublin’s closest equivalent to The Kraken’s lair.
Your bold escape plan
If you’re one of the 50 lucky ticket holders, on the 14th of February, the Beast will crash into your DMs with an emergency escape story and an exclusive invite to The Kraken’s Date Escape party in the devilishly decadent NoLIta in Dublin’s city centre.
So get ready to jump ship and ditch that bad date for the Kraken’s Date Escape party, where you can let loose and savour delectable Kraken cocktails and canapés with only the most magnificent of people. There’ll also be a tidal wave of absolute bangers across the dance floor, ensuring that soppy slow songs are out!
Tickets are €10 and go on sale on Thursday 1st February at via Eventbrite. But be quick, the Beast can only rescue 50 of you tortured souls from Valentine’s Day hell.
And fret not, if you can’t make it to Dublin for the Date Escape party, the Beast can still save your soul. Head over to @KrakenRumIRL for a chance to win Date Escape @ home cocktail kits for you and your fellow adventurers. Or why not whip up a darkly delicious Kraken cocktail yourself…
