IDEAfest is Vancouver's and SW Washington’s annual one-day gathering of innovators, thinkers, creatives, and makers!

IDEAfest is a showcase of remarkable ideas and a platform for change, building upon the success of VANtalks as an annual event highlighting some of the best ideas and changemakers. Our mission is clear - to keep growing the connection builders and idea makers within our community.

Our Vision:

"A SHOWCASE OF CREATIVITY AND EXPLORATION DESIGNED TO CONNECT THE INNOVATORS, THINKERS, CREATIVES, AND MAKERS OF OUR COMMUNITY."

In the spirit of creating a future-focused space, IDEAfest aims to provide the inspiration needed to accelerate our community impact. It is a day where dreams and hopes for our community are shared, and where imagination knows no bounds.

What to Expect:

• Break the Silos: Connect and build relationships with individuals from diverse backgrounds who share your passion for making a positive impact.

• Talk, Discuss, and Dialogue: Engage in meaningful conversations about the community we aspire to be and explore ways to collectively make it happen.

• Be Inspired: Listen to local changemakers as they share their stories of how they are already making a difference in our community.

• Connect Seeds of Ideas: Contribute to an environment that fosters the exchange, amplification, and implementation of transformative ideas.

IDEAfest promises to be a day filled with inspiration, collaboration, and boundless possibilities.
