Annual Reunion Dinner 2026 – Note for your diary

Time is of the essence when it comes to enabling Leaving Cert Years to organise themselves for the forthcoming year’s Annual Reunion Dinner – be it through personal contact, WhatsApp Groups or other social media channels.

So, we’re pleased to let everyone know that next year’s Joeys Alumni Annual Reunion Dinner has been arranged for Clontarf Castle on Friday, 27th February 2026 @ 7:30pm.

Ticket Price has yet to be decided and will be published closer to the date. As an indicator, price for the 2025 Dinner in February (incl. online booking charges) was €75 per person.

To make this fun night as attractive as possible (last 8 had attendances of 130 – 200), we will aim to keep our ticket prices as close to or below cost, with a bit of financial support from individual past pupils.

Our Annual Dinner provides an ideal opportunity to meet up, sit together for a meal / drink, talk about what is happening in each other’s lives (career, business and / or otherwise), remember past events and have a bit of craic.

At this stage, all you need to do is note in your diary and start linking up about it with former classmates. Some LC Years are better connected than others, through sharing contact details in person, on our website, WhatsApp Groups, Facebook, LinkedIn, etc. So, if you are finding it difficult to get in touch with people from your LC Year, just contact us and we’ll help in whatever way we can.

We are taking this approach based on feedback from fellow past pupils and research by our professional advisors.

We will arrange an online prepayment facility, closer to the date. This will make the event as inclusive and enjoyable as possible for everyone, minimising the need to divert fellow past pupil time towards cash collecting at the door. It will also help us to arrange tables for large groups, provide accurate numbers to Clontarf Castle and avoid costly "no-shows".

Table Reservations: As in previous years, seating arrangements will be made for groups of 10 – 12 people from related LC years to sit at their own reserved tables. We will also be liaising with “Year / Class Contacts” for groups with large bookings (including “Anniversary Years”).
