TALKS ON TUESDAYS
Smart talks. Good wine. Great company.
ABOUT TALKS ON TUESDAYS

Talks on Tuesdays is a weekly event where a lecturer, professor, or storyteller delivers a TED-style presentation on a fascinating topic - from psychology and science to history, culture, and creativity. Each talk runs for one hour and is designed to spark curiosity, fresh perspectives, and meaningful conversation. You can order food, grab a drink, and enjoy a night that feels different to your usual Tuesday. It’s smart, social, and made for people who love to learn something new - without committing to a full course or lecture series.
Ideas Worth Sipping.

Please remember not everyone in the audience has the same background, you remember to break down complex concepts, invite engagement when you wish and feel free to add a little humour if it works for you. We often will work with you to help come up with a catchy title - but if you've got one prepare, even better! Talks are required for 45minutes, with 15minutes add on for audience questions. All talks are compensated, which is discussed in the phone call post application.

Can I do more than one topic?100%! Please submit your best idea to us. If all goes well and you enjoy your first event, we are always open to booking more events on other topics.

What is required to be a guest host?Love the concept and want to get paid to listen to some epic talks? Then, a guest host role might be the right fit for you. Guest hosts are required to attend 30minutes prior to start time. Check in with bar manager, do final venue checks for sound and presentation. Guest hosts greet all guests at the door, give them the run down, check all tickets and MC the night! We are looking for fast thinkers, who are out going and happy to part the movement. Please note as a guest host, it is not the time for you to be promoting products, courses, events etc. This is strictly a support role to Talks on Tuesdays. All guest hosts are paid on a contractor basis.
