Think of it as a TED talk meets happy hour! You'll experience an engaging 40-minute presentation by an expert speaker in a casual bar or cafe setting, followed by an interactive Q&A session. It's a chance to learn something new while meeting fellow curious minds in a relaxed atmosphere.

Not at all! Our events are specifically designed to be accessible to everyone while remaining intellectually stimulating. Our speakers are experts at breaking down complex topics into engaging discussions that anyone can follow and enjoy.

Your ticket covers the expert-led presentation, interactive Q&A session, networking opportunities, and usually includes a welcome drink (depending on the venue). You'll also get access to any digital materials or resources shared by the speaker.

We partner with various bars and cafes throughout Chicago to create the perfect casual learning environment. The specific venue for each event is listed on the ticket page, but we always choose locations that are easily accessible and comfortable for group discussions.

We offer full refunds up to 48 hours before the event start time. You can also transfer your ticket to another person if you can't attend – just let us know their name in advance.

While each venue is different, most of our partner locations offer food menus that you can order from during the event. Check the specific event listing for details about food options at that venue.
