Nerd Nite Solstice Spectacular
December 20, 2017 - 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
We made it everyone! We’ve wrapped another amazing year, and we want to see you all before the end of it! We’ve invited all of our speakers from 2017 to celebrate with us, and we want to give you all a chance to continue to nerd out with them over drinks. Plus it’s Kaylee’s last Nerd Nite for a while. So let’s get her wasted!
For this year’s solstice party we also want you up on our stage to play Powerpoint Kareoke!
The rules of the game are as follows: you go on stage and give a talk to a random powerpoint presentation that has been curated to show 20 slides that randomly switch every 20 seconds. There will be lots of prizes and shenanigans!
Send us an email if you’d like to sign up! vancouver@nerdnite.com
As always we can’t have a Nerd Nite without some learning so we’ve got a featured classic Nerd Nite talk!:
Dr. Jennifer Gardy – Canada Research Chair in Public Health Genomics, MSFHR Scholar, UBC School of Population and Public Health, BC Centre for Disease Control
Confirmed past Nerd Nite speakers that will be in attendance and hopefully on stage playing PPT Kareoke!
