Welcome to Nerd Nite Los Angeles! We’re so excited that you’ve discovered our community’s nerdy little corner of LA. We are Nerd Nite (like TED Talks or the Discovery Channel + beer), Drinking & Dragons (live, improv-ed DnD), NNXL (live music), and Nerd Nite Out (community-building). Check out what we’re up to at one of our upcoming events!
WHAT IS NERD NITE?
We all know that learning is more fun when you’re drinking with friends and colleagues. Thus, Nerd Nite is a monthly event held in more than 100 cities across the globe during which several folks give 20-minute fun-yet-informative presentations across all disciplines – while the audience drinks along. It’s like TED Talks…but with beer.

Audience members are chosen at random to join the table with our Dungeon Master to play as characters, while the audience weighs-in like an improv show. So even if you’re not playing a character, you can affect the game! You might even get to roll our basketball-sized d20 named Gary!
So gather your party and set a quest to DRINKING & DRAGONS! Tickets HERE!
