PechaKucha Night Winnipeg is turning TEN years old! On February 20, 2020 (which just so happens to be International PechaKucha Day), we're putting together the Ultimate Throwback Thursday as we've invited some of our very first speakers from Volumes 1 and 2 of PechaKucha Night Winnipeg. Join us in celebrating ten years of inspiring 20x20 talks at the place where it all started, the Park Theatre, and watch as our all-star speakers bring you stories from the past ten years.

Doors open as usual at 7:30 PM, and the show starts at 8:00 PM.

Admission is pay-what-you-want, but we suggest $10. Tickets and registration are not required, but feel free to register to let us know you’re going!

☰ WHAT IS PECHAKUCHA NIGHT? ☰

PechaKucha is a presentation format invented by Tokyo-based firm Klein Dytham Architecture in 2003. At every event, speakers are given 20 slides to talk about whatever they like, but each slide advances automatically after only 20 seconds. This 20x20 format gives each speaker a total time of six minutes and forty seconds. PechaKucha Night has over 1200 city chapters all over the world.

PechaKucha Night Winnipeg was established by the Graphic Designers of Canada in 2010. Each PechaKucha Night – or PKN – is a fun, and informal evening where creative and inspiring Winnipeggers talk about their ideas, stories, experiences, or work. PKN Winnipeg is held quarterly and usually at the Park Theatre.
