Event Details

The Philadelphia Geek Awards

The first official awards ceremony honoring outstanding achievements in Philadelphia's vibrant geek community.


Sooo....You're about to register yourself and your geeky friend or, possibly, that cute geek you've had your eye on. (Go ahead, ask 'em out as your date to the awards!) What else can we say about the most awesome award show in our fine City of Brotherly Love!?Let's hear from the man behind the curtain, yes, Mr Eric Smith...

 

"A black-tie, red carpet event, we're taking this 'jawn' seriously. Think of it as the local Daytime Emmy of the Webby Awards. Presenters will take to the Academy of Natural Sciences' stage to talk about the nominees, open up an envelope to announce the winner, all that good stuff.  Expect beautiful trophies/plaques,  a fantastic pre-awards cocktail hour  thanks to National Mechanics, DrinkPhilly, Victory Brewing Company, Neurowater, and lots of laughs."

 

6:30 - 8:00 p.m. - Walk the red carpet...  grab a cocktail... and some nosh...  experience some "real science" going on at the Academy of Natural Sciences

8:00 - 10:00 p.m. - Grab a seat... then enjoy the awards!
