Spring Break Science Slam


Science Slam YVR is excited about spring with with our next show happening March 16 at the Fox Cabaret!

Doors 7:00pm
Tickets: see below
19+/No Minors

Welcome to the wonder of Science Slam! We are Vancouver’s most epic science showdown. Sit back, relax, and watch as our competitors battle to achieve science communication fame and glory.

What exactly is a science slam? Based on the format of a poetry slam, a science slam is a competition where speakers gather to share their science with you - the audience. Competitors have five minutes to present on any science topic without the use of a slideshow and are judged based on communication skills, audience impact and scientific content. Props and creative presentation styles are encouraged — no slides!

Interested in participating as a Slammer? Please fill out this form by February 28. Thank you!

Doors open at 7pm, event begins at 7:30pm.

Early bird tickets are only $12 until March 9! General admission is $15.

See you there!
