Event Description

LOCAL FOOD. LOCAL TALK. GLOBAL MOVEMENT.

Calling all foodies, entrepreneurs, changemakers, creatives, influencers, activists, artists and generally awe-inspiring folks!

The Feast Worldwide is a day of global dinner parties in 40+ cities across 6 continents. The goal? To spark collaboration that drives local entrepreneurs and social initiatives forward. More information at feastongood.com/worldwide

On October 18, we're inviting Vancouver to envision, "PROGRESSION: A world where growing and eating healthy food connects people." Come dine with us + join the conversation!

The idea is simple. Come for an interactive dinner that explores connections between food, community, technology, sustainability, business, health, design, and more! We're inviting incredible entrepreneurs to share their work to inspire greater discovery and ideas. Let's sit together over dinner - and instead of talking about problems, talk about ways to support each other, collaborate, and make things work a tiny bit better.

This dinner is about connecting with each other over a simple meal and weighing into a global problem solving session. It’s a movement to get full on good.

Tickets cover delicious local food at a beautiful venue, inspiring speakers, and new connections. Proceeds will be donated to Mealshare to feed others in need.


Special Deals: Student and Group Admissions Available!

LOCAL TALK
We have curated an amazing lineup of speakers to share their experiences of growing an entrepreneurial idea. Each speaker supports Vancouver's food, culture, business and sustainability scene in a unique way. But wait, you won't just be listening to them. You'll be sitting with them over an intimate meal! Be prepared to make new connections and to be inspired.

- Derek Juno, VP of Business Development for Mealshare
- Joey Liu, Founder of The Food Connection
- Annika Reinhardt, Community Impact Creator at Social Bites
- Ruth Warren + Katie Ralphs, Co-Founders and Co-Farmers of City Beet Farm


GLOBAL MOVEMENT
On the same evening we will connect live with The Feast Worldwide, North Vancouver, who will be envisioning "A world where education empowers people to strive in the face of change."

We will also monitor social media to see what ideas and actions come out of Feasts in New York and Helsinki to Singapore and Nairobi! This is for sure: You'll leave feeling full on good.
