Description:

Dad La Soul is a multi-award winning revolutionary, grassroots movement that uses the arts, music, tech and play to tackle social isolation in dads and kids.

We produce kick-ass Saturday morning playdates for dads, stepdads, granddads and male carers who want to hang out with their kids, play/learn/teach new skills and make some new cool friends.

We bring them together, challenge conventions, spark conversations and start friendships with dads that perhaps might otherwise struggle in silence or isolation.

You can expect: Soft play, crafting, Lego, Giant Jenga, VR headsets to use in order to explore different places, times, planets, dress-up. And, as part of a monthly theme, everything from filmmaking, DJ workshops, circus skills, zombie mask making, den building, science lessons and a whole lot more.

Expect old-school tunes, games, card-making, free tea/coffee and general dad-related daftness.

Bring your favourite toys and games and join the party.

We have an incredible HQ based in partnership with the lovely folks at Plus X. Plus X is a seven-storey innovation hub that houses all types of business members from freelancers to corporates. The innovation hub encompasses business growth innovation programmes, support for sustainable product makers, design workshops, podcast studios, media suites, meeting rooms and event spaces - which is exactly where we will be! It includes a state of the art High Definition projector & sound system too!

Usually full of a smorgasbord of professional change-makers and purpose-driven entrepreneurs, Plus X is the perfect space for us to bring an army of kids into.

We are combining it with the heart and soul of the wonderful folks at Sussex Business Times Magazine, The County Business Group, and The Bevy - Brighton’s number one community pub/hub - to ensure that everyone gets access to this wonderful event.

Dad La Soul is a safe space for dads and kids to let off steam, have some banter and ask for help.

Plus X is an inclusive & accessible building that remains a safe space for all visitors. If you have any additional requirements needed to access this event, please email aliciacsullivan@plusx.space at your earliest convenience.
