Seomra Spraoi (English: Play Room) was an autonomous social centre in Dublin, Ireland which first opened in 2004 and closed in 2015.[1] The space was run by an anti-capitalist collective along autonomous principles.

It was formerly located at Ormond Quay,[2] then Mary's Abbey, and most recently situated at 10 Belvedere Court, behind Mountjoy Square and off Gardiner Street Upper, in Dublin's north inner city.

In February 2011 the project was the only space in Dublin that would host a public talk by Philip Nitschke, founder and director of the pro-euthanasia group Exit International, after several other venues cancelled on short notice due to pressure from small right-wing Christian groups.[3]
