TEDxStanleyPark is one of our favourite events of the year. It’s thought-provoking, intellectually-stimulating, enlightening, encouraging, reasonably-priced, thoroughly entertaining and so worth attending. We highly recommend it.

Tony Izzard

The TEDxStanleyPark conference entertained, challenged and inspired me. It was worth more than twice the price of admission.

Lisa Simpson

TEDxStanleyPark is a community of thoughtful optimists with big hearts who each year inspire us all to take ‘brave actions’ that create a better world.

TEDxStanleyPark is by far the best TEDx event I have ever experienced. I laughed, I cried, I met incredible people and best of all, I left feeling on fire and unstoppable….and that is priceless.
