Nerd Nite has chapters in 100+ cities worldwide. North Van’s freshly rebooted outpost is back with The Redux — a new season of mind-blowing talks, awesome trivia and one of the city’s most unique 19+ nights out, where science gets social and curiosity takes the mic. Join us February 2026 at our new venue.
Every Nite features three 15-minute talks from scientists, experts, and curious thinkers who can explain big ideas in plain, human language. No decoder ring required. Just real knowledge, shared easily with humour and beer. We’re grounded in the simple idea that learning is better with friends and a beverage. Nerd Nite is for Adults 19+.
After each talk, the audience joins in a live Q&A. That’s when things heat up – questions, debates, surprising tangents and the occasional piece of scientific gear or space rock passed around the room. **Extreme Rabbit Hole Warning: Many audience members have lost hours to rabbit holes after a nerd nite talk.**
Between talks, we run themed trivia rounds to keep the neurons warm. Check the site for upcoming trivia topics. Vote in our online survey to help choose the next trivia theme – and maybe score free tickets to a show. Stay tuned for our new survey!
It all happens in a classic pub, lit with laughter, clinking glasses, and a healthy amount of nerdy energy. Officially, we’re a volunteer-run science-communication community for adults 19+. Unofficially, we’re the place where particles go to party.
This is a 19+ Adults only show. Please learn responsibly, don’t drink & drive. For Teen Nerd Nite info, check out our Teen Nerd Nite website.
