We have had to postpone until October 31 given current events, but ENGAGE: Deeply (Take 2) will be even stronger and more meaningful when it happens! Join us for a day of new connections and deep conversations, with plenty of awesome ideas to be shared by our speakers and participants alike.
And, stay tuned for news on other online events we'll be holding in the coming months. Although we're in a period of necessary physical isolation, we don't think that should mean being truly isolated socially from one another and the exchange of ideas.
Our regular community salons were suspended back in March due to closure of programming and event spaces in our partner facilities of the Calgary Public Library. But we're getting set to resume these salons virtually!
Stay tuned for additional information coming soon, as we work out the details for offering new virtual salons as part of the CPL's "Library at Home" series

Our partners in the community support the rich interactions and experiences of our participants. They are an essential part of engaging our vibrant community of curiosity and nurturing a garden of powerful ideas. Thank you to all of the amazing partners who have made this event possible!
When we have an active event, registration links will be provided in our Events section.
Speakers for upcoming events are usually announced about 4 weeks in advance of the event. Please note that all events are "as is", and we cannot guarantee that a particular speaker is able to appear.
Compared to watching an individual TED or TEDx talk online, a TEDxCalgary event is an opportunity to immerse yourself in a full day of ideas and conversations with others who are equally curious about the world around them. In addition to the amazing speakers and performers we profile on stage, all of our participants at the event contribute to the awesomeness of the day through their interactions with one another, and with our interactions partners in the venue. As part of your ticket, we provide refreshment and meal breaks throughout the day to nourish the body as well as the mind! Read our What to Expect article for more information on how to make the most of the event!

Each TEDx team brings a different approach to organizing their event, while conforming to the general TEDx licencing rules.
