We’re reaching out with an exciting announcement: TEDxCongaree Vista is returning to Columbia in 2027! After the incredible success of our 2026 event, featuring 16 talks that have since gained over 300,000 views on YouTube, we are excited to bring another TEDx event to Columbia next year!

​
Just like last year, there are so many ways to get involved and support our event. Whether it's purchasing a ticket, applying to speak, offering to sponsor, or joining our team directly, we appreciate it all.

Share the Announcement

We want to make sure as many people as possible are aware of TEDxCongaree Vista's presence in Columbia and the ways they can get involved. It would mean the world to us if you shared the announcement post on Instagram or LinkedIn.
