SweetTalk is the name of CandyCollective’s self-initiated series of creative-to creative live events. Away of bringing together local creative talent with international luminaries in a relaxed, social environment. While originally based in Ireland (Dublin, Belfast, Limerick) the series has become popular internationally (London, Newcastle, Copenhagen, Berlin, NYC) and now exporting some of our leading lights to enthuse others as well as focusing attention on homegrown talent. To date they have held 33 editions of SweetTalk in Ireland (Dublin, Belfast, Limerick, Sligo), the UK (London, Newcastle), Germany (Berlin), Denmark (Copenhagen), USA (NYC) and in the next year we aim to expand SweetTalk into as many countries as possible.
