What is Péint, Cúpla Focal agus Ól?
Péint, Cúpla Focal agus Ól is a laid-back, social paint and sip experience based in Belfast that blends creativity, culture and craic. It’s a welcoming night out where no pressure, no art experience and no Irish fluency are required. All that’s needed is a positive attitude, good company and a willingness to try something new.
Although I’m based in Belfast, I travel to bars, venues and private spaces across the island of Ireland to run public events, corporate bookings and private parties.
If you haven’t picked up a paintbrush since school, or if “Sláinte!” is the height of your Irish, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re coming with friends, on a date, with colleagues or organising something special, these creative evenings offer something different from the usual night out.
Each session is guided step-by-step by Tuathan (me), helping you create your own painting in a relaxed, informal setting. With music, laughter and a cúpla focal (a few Irish words) woven in naturally, you’ll relax into the experience and surprise yourself with what you can make.
It’s not an Irish class, and it’s definitely not a serious art workshop. It’s a creative paint and sip night in Belfast and beyond, perfect for beginners, group outings, corporate team-building, hen and stag parties, or anyone looking for a unique Irish language event with an artistic twist.
You’ll leave with a finished painting, a smile and a few new phrases as Gaeilge. Grab your chairde and join a paint and sip experience that’s all about creativity, culture and craic.
Is imeacht péinteála agus óil suaimhneach, sóisialta é Péint, Cúpla Focal agus Ól atá lonnaithe i mBéal Feirste, a mheascann cruthaitheacht, cultúr agus craic le chéile. Níl brú ar bith ann, ní gá taithí ealaíne ná Gaeilge líofa a bheith agat. Níl uait ach meon dearfach, cuideachta mhaith agus fonn triail a bhaint as rud éigin nua.
Cé go bhfuil mé bunaithe i mBéal Feirste, téim chuig tithe tábhairne, ionaid agus spásanna príobháideacha ar fud oileán na hÉireann ag cur imeachtaí poiblí, áirithintí corparáideacha agus cóisirí príobháideacha ar fáil.
Mura raibh scuab péinte i do lámh agat ó bhí tú ar scoil, nó más é “Sláinte!” buaic do chuid Gaeilge, tá tú san áit cheart. Cibé acu le cairde, ar dháta, le comhghleacaithe nó ag eagrú ócáid speisialta, tugann na hoícheanta neamhghnácha cruthaitheacha seo eispéireas den scoth duit.
Tugaim treoir céim ar chéim duit chun do phictiúr féin a chruthú i dtimpeallacht shuaimhneach, neamhfhoirmiúil. Le ceol, gáire agus cúpla focal Gaeilge fite isteach go nádúrtha, socróidh tú san eispéireas agus cuirfidh sé iontas ort cad é is féidir leat a dhéanamh.
Ní rang Gaeilge atá ann, agus is cinnte nach ceardlann ealaíne dáiríre é ach oiread. Is oíche shóisialta chruthaitheach é, foirfe do ganthosaitheoirí, do ghrúpaí, d’imeachtaí corparáideacha, do cheiliúrthaí cearc agus stág, nó d’aon duine atá ag iarraidh imeacht Gaeilge le ealaíne a bheith acu.
Fágfaidh tú le pictiúr críochnaithe, aoibh gháire ar d'aghaidh agus cúpla frása nua Gaeilge i d'theanga agat. Beir leat do chairde agus bí linn ag Péint, Cúpla Focal agus Ól, áit a mbuaileann cruthaitheacht, cultúr agus craic le chéile.

An easy-going social night where painting, a cúpla focal of Irish, and good craic come together. No pressure, just paint, sip and enjoy the craic.
Not at all. You don’t need to be fluent, or even have any Irish at all. We use simple phrases, plenty of English, and keep everything relaxed and welcoming.
You’ll be guided step-by-step through a painting, with time to chat, sip, and enjoy the atmosphere. All materials are provided, just turn up, grab a drink, and paint along.
Not always. Most nights use acrylic, but some events feature different themes and materials. Each event page tells you exactly what to expect.
This can vary depending on the venue, please always check event details.
Aprons are provided, but I’d still recommend wearing something you wouldn’t mind getting a splash of paint on, just in case we get a wee bit carried away.
