MindFest
June 25 at 6:00 pm - 8:30 pm

MindFest is back for 2026! MindFest is an engaging event packed with fascinating psychology talks, great food, and this year, magic! The event is free, fun and for everyone.
Join us at Metro Community Hub for a vibrant evening that brings cutting-edge psychology research at UBC Okanagan to life! Discover how our students and faculty are advancing wellbeing through engaging, interactive presentations made for everyone—no science degree needed.
Enjoy talks on hot topics ranging from substance use and mental health to human behaviour and creativity. We would love to see attendees ask questions and get involved in real research. Then, unwind with a live magic performance by the award-winning magician Ryan Michael, free catered food by TJ’s Grazing, and meaningful conversation with our presenters and organizers.
Attendees will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite presentation, and raffle prizes for local Okanagan companies are up for grabs as well!
